Ok, we realized that we just can't do a 7-Day Fast every week.
We are utterly useless for those last two days - sitting and doing indoor wood carving, toy making, etc. - but no farm work. No carrying heavy things, no hiking or fence-checking. Also, we're not really up to any heaving thinking on our last couple fasting days, either.
Decided to switch to a 3.5 day fast alternating with 3.5 days of eating. We're going to try to document every day of food intake to keep us from compensating from any perceived deficit.
We also switched our fasting days to Monday pm through Friday am. That will allow us to eat on days when we are working and volunteering on other farms.
Still down 17 pounds overall since we started in January 2019. So, that's still on track - and a miracle. I've been trying to lose this weight for a decade or more.

First full day off the water fast - so, up 3.4 pounds. I know it will happen, since my gullet was empty, but I dislike losing ground. sigh...

Last day of my 7-day fast. Usually we start with broth today. However, I really wanted to get into the 270s this fast, so we're going to stay on the fast through Sunday. Had a strong swim yesterday, but in the afternoon we were working with moving a set of cinder blocks and just didn't have a lot of energy. We got two of the 12 foot walls set up, and then just decided that since it 5:00 pm, we'd give it up for the day. Of course, we're in our 60s - so things are a bit more challenging.
Still really psyched that this works at all. I realize that there really isn't any way it can't work - but I've spend my whole life a victim of my odd metabolism. Being able to deliberately lose weight is a miracle. And, water-fasting is simpler, effective and less painful than any of the many diets I've tried over the years.

Saturday is the 6th day of our water fast. We did some work on the farm this morning, then went for a swim and a hot tub at noon. I get pretty chill on these fasts, so I love to soak in the hot tub after my swim. I have to be careful not to get in and out too quickly, or I get a bit dizzy. So, by this afternoon - almost 5 pm, I'm not good for much activity.
