Here's to an impromptu fast that @Jenibeann requested. This fast will not be 100 percent water or black coffee. The fasts that work for me, contain less than 7 grams of carbs within 24 hrs (see my food diaries on July 11th, 12th and 19th) and I only consume liquids.
I am glad I stayed under 40 grams of carbs yesterday (let's see 2 glasses of wine, 2 frosted cookies post dinner [3 eggs, chicken breast, olive oil on a bed of spinach with salsa] yup that sounds about right.)
My run tonight in a fasted state as it was Sunday morning should be interesting one as I will be aiming for a faster, longer run (Thank you Vivoactive for the ability to flick my wrist and see my pace while running without having to rely on a smart phone at that moment). What's great about after my run is that I am not usually hungry for an hour or two. This is perfect since I don't plan on getting to it until 7:30 or 8 PM tonight and before you know it, I will be off to bed.
Let's go!!!

[48 - ??? hrs.] Family coming up to visit from FL on Wednesday late evening (if I can avoid them that night, the fast should go beyond 48 hrs))

Since I just finished one, I'm not sure if it's too soon for me to do it again,

Sounds great! I'm not ready to try this yet, still just figuring out how to maintain.
Do you count carbs total or net?

@T8U9, neither. I just try and stay busy and these liquids haven't stimulated my appetite in the past when I fasted so I just stick to this regiment.
