I made it through 12 days. I felt good and had good energy mentally and physically. I was able to walk up to 2hours per day.
The down side of the fast is that I’m struggling with water retention and have no idea why, but it has to be related to the fast. Even worse is the mental aspect. Although I don’t feel hungry at all, I find that I am thinking about food almost constantly to the point of being distracted. I am also having fantasies about binging on unhealthy food. I’m struggling to banish these thoughts. I’ve also noticed my skin is quite dry and I feel like I’m freezing all the time.
I’ve decided to end the 21 day fast at the half way point. I’m moving on to intermittent fasting. Haven’t decided which plan yet, 5:2 or 16:8. So I’m going to give 5:2 a go for the next two weeks. I’ll also stick with low carb paleo like diet, not true paleo because I have some dairy: whey protein, cream in my coffee, Greek yogurt.
My big challenge is to gradually re introduce food and exercise so that I bring up my metabolism as I bring up my calorie intake and don’t regain what I lost.
I’ve picked out a 3 day per week plyometric high intensity work out to add to my weekly routine. On to the next phase!

A very good day. Lots of energy. Water intake was 118 oz and well above goal of 75 oz. I read that hunger pains would be gone after about 72 hours, but that’s not my experience. I feel hunger intermittently through out the day although less frequently and with less intensity than the first couple days. Added in some exercise today, 30 min moderate pace walk.

Saturday afternoon was a little bit rough. I over did exercise and had a reactive hypoglycemic episode, shaky, weak, light headed. It was a little scary. This was the first time I experienced hypoglycemia and it wasn’t a good experience. I added some coconut oil to broth and bounced back. I also slept poorly - mind racing, woke up several times, felt exhausted. I started adding protein powder to my daily routine. Now I have 1 scoop of plain whey protein from grass fed cows when I get up, and another in the evening. I slept normally for the last two nights. A great tip from Dr. Mercola. I felt much better Sunday and completely normal Monday. I feel great today. I haven’t tried exercising again. I’m going to try 30 min walk after my evening protein today.
