36 hour fast of peace. Do you do any salts in your water when you fast?

[Y2ok]

Hey! Great progress so far. Would love to see how the changes are reflected in pictures. Must be a huge difference.

What is the point of fasting? Isn't it bad for your muscle mass? Haven't read a lot about fasting, and never have I tried one myself, so curious.

Anyway - don't give up and keep on rocking.

Never tried. What would be a reason for that? I read or heard about it somewhere but I can’t remember what it was.

I didn’t take progress pictures this time. It is the second time I am losing the weight, though this time I don’t have to lose quite as much.

I know how to lose weight and how to keep it off. Knowing and DOING are two different things though ... discipline and execution is the name of the game. I can hopefully do a better job keeping it off this time

As far as losing muscle mass, I am not very concerned with that. My main goal is weight loss. When I get to my desired weight I can put on some muscle if I want. Also, I do keep my Protein numbers quite high and on fasting days I have 1-2 servings of BCAA/EAA. I know that breaks a fast because there ARE calories in that, but the point for my weekly fast is more for mental discipline that anything else ... not fasting for whatever physiological reason people usually do it for.

To keep electrolytes up. I use some nu salt for potassium and a little high quality mineral salt in my water. I tend to feel a bit off I don't add this.

Ah, I see.
That makes sense.
I usually use some type of BCAA product, and most of the ones that I use will have some type of electrolyte in there. I just got a whole bunch of XTend BCAA tubs and can't wait to crack them open.

I don't really like plain water.
Maybe adding some of the things you mentioned would make the taste more bearable? No?

Did not have a good week diet wise.
Not sorry and there is no guilt.
Just one of those weeks I guess.

I’ve done really good for ten weeks in a row. I can take a week with no loss on the scale, and a gain for sure.

Will not weigh in this Sunday, as I usually do. Will just start fresh on Monday and take it from there.

[Y2ok]

We all had those weeks. Don't look back, keep you head up and keep on going - one week won't change anything, you'll be right back on the track by next Sunday.

Nah, it's not a big deal.
It's probably a good thing to put a little break on after 10 weeks of continuous loss.
Thanks for stopping by.

I have been falling to the temptation at candy bars as well. That super sweet taste takes me down the wrong road nearly every time.
