If I saw stars I would panic too. Take it easy and allow your sacrifice to pay off...

3 days no food, that's healthy?

Wow, good job on 70 hr fast - be careful of artificial deadlines and goals - you + 70 hrs of fasting not two hours short. And, when you see stars its time for food!

A lot of good reasons to fast. See short Youtube on Keto foods plans and fasting. Dr. Jason Fung.

Oh I know there are great reasons to fast, however, weight loss is not one of them.

Thank you all. To be honest, I intented to go beyond day 3. But I think I started to break down while I was cooking for my boys, I had to taste the food, and once i did it, I lost it. April was right, the best thing for you to do during a fast is to keep youself busy. Lol. Can't wait to see how much weight will come back tomorrow morning. :)

Great work, as all before me said, 70 hours is no joke! 16h is an impressive accomplishment, and going for as long as you did gives you the knowlege you can do it!

The 16:8 was something I could live with on my WOE..Therefore I did not have to beat myself up, and the journey continues..

@yugguth, weekly? Wow! It's almost like a 3 day fast with a break in between, great idea!

@thsiun, I did a 36 hour once and my wife told me I can't do that again while she is at home (lol). My goal is 2 lb/week loss and my two 24 hour fasts fit in to my plan. I do have a large "re-feed" night on Sunday to reset hormones/attitude etc.. so I am not super hardcore, dont want to lose more than 2 lb per week. 6 weeks going strong.

@yugguth --- WAY TO GO!!! 6 weeks going strong! Taking some of this and putting in my tool box :)

when you break a fast - even a fast of 24 hours you will need to break it with something starchy it is recommended tomatoes, three skin a broiled - I break my fast usually because I do the Keto with cabbage cooked so it is easier for my body to start again especially the kidney's. Drink a whole bunch of water and cauliflower and cabbage is recommended, otherwise after the first time you go to the bathroom for #2 you might not be able to go for at least 3 days. You have to be kind to your inside.
