do you get headaches? the main thing stopping me from an occasional fast (i'd probably start with just ~36 hours) is headaches, plus a weak feeling i sometimes get if i don't eat for a long time.

it probably does not help that i have no body fat. not sure.

Thanks for the invite.

Maaaaayyyyybe. I'm getting back from the Caribbean Thursday night. I've been eating like a king, a fat king at that, and it would do me good. It may be too weird on my body with reverse jetlag at the same time, so we'll see how I'm feeling when I wake on Friday.

Did two fasts last year, a 72-hour and a 60-hour. Decided I'd go with two 60-hour fasts a year. It's about time for the next.

I'll join.

I just quit cigs yesterday.

I think I kinda like this depravation thing. I have been only eating vegan during the past couple of hours (mainly caloric heavy drinks) and I like how light I feel.

This will be great. I'll make a post on Thursday so we can all share our experiences, and taunt each other with pics of food.

Yeah I’m in, though I’ll be running something slightly different. I’ll be fasting from the 26th to the 3rd, with one keto meal on the 28th.

I stumbled upon intermittent fasting about two months ago and have been absolutely loving it. I wish I had started before I did the majority of my endurance events

Cool. What comprises the keto meal?
