Day 5 of a planned 5 day fast

I'm done losing weight. Today I hit my 'normal BMI' (24.8 BMI - 163lbs at 5' 8"). I only wanted to do this once in my life. I did it, now, I'm done :)

I still have a 'belly' (I am holding it in for the picture), but, when I look in the mirror I feel like 'skin and bones' on every other part of my body.

Now is the time for weight lifting and putting on muscle!

I have tried everything to lose weight over the years, and fasting is what finally worked for me. I am REALLY BAD at fasting. I have only ever done a 'pure water-only fast' one day. I journaled about my experience along the way. You can see all my journals starting here: https://bit.ly/2NfkXF9 (just click the "Next Entry" link to move to the next journal).

A few milestones:

12/17/2010 - 232 lbs. - Started on FatSecret.com
01/07/2018 - 214 lbs. - Started the most recent diet
03/25/2018 - 210 lbs. - Started my first 'liquid only' fast
08/03/2018 - 163 lbs. - Normal BMI weight

Thank you so much to all of you have supported me daily! I love you all!

Note: "The Obesity Code: Unlocking the Secrets of Weight Loss" - https://amzn.to/2sAbluO is the Definitive source for safe fasting.

@jimmiepop - I can't thank you enough for your encouragement and support! Now I need you more than ever as I switch it up and get serious about building the body I want. I am still reading that helpful weight training book you inadvertently recommended to me :)

Your story is almost identical to mine. Still can't get rid of the belly fat, either. But congrats dude!

@gaelicgal - Thank you for all the encouragement you have given me! Be ready, because most likely I will 'stumble' as I get used to the 'transition' to body building :) I will also be here for your journey!

@Cjsutherland - Haha I 'hoped' to just 'lose the belly' though weight loss. But, every other part of my body does-not-look-good :( I plan to do 50-100 crunches daily and see what that gets me...

@rosio19 - Thanks for the encouragement. Your story and pictures have been inspiring to me!

Note: The big one day drop is because I was 'retaining water' during my fast so I went on a 5 mile run last night and dropped from 166 before the run down to 164. I then drank my vanilla protein shake and went to bed. I then woke up at 163.
