challenge "Fasting February" - National Fasting Month February Challenge!
I made the 72 hour fast without issue. I didn't hit the wall like I did on the first attempt. It was actually fairly easy. My blood sugar tracked up and then down. The entire time I did not feel hungry and my energy level remained relatively high. This morning I had a really good workout after a 13 hour night shift, and being about 64 hours into a water fast. I think the biggest difference between the two attempts is that I ensured I got plenty of salt. The last time I don't think I was as smart with hydration and electrolytes. Tonight, I ate some fatty country style pork ribs to break the fast. I didn't eat but a couple as I am not sure how the first meal will be on the empty stomach. My weight fluctuated a bit and ended up a couple three pounds lighter than when I started. Tonight at the end of the fast I hit 215 (from 306). I have not been at 215 since just after Navy Dive School in 1991. (soon after I started a long term relationship with Mr. Jim Beam. He was my drinking buddy for a bunch of years. The weight began to add up) I'm starting to read more and more about the effectiveness of fasting for longer periods of time. Mostly what I have read is that on the Carnivore diet the thoughts are split on how effective fasting is when the carbs are already gone. Tons to learn I suppose. Scott blood fasting.pdf- fasting

Do you proselytize carnivorism?
Of course I am less than two weeks into this endeavor, so no I haven't. There will certainly come a time when someone will notice that I have lost 20 lbs and ask a question. It is then that I will share my story. They can choose what they do with that. -

Do you proselytize carnivorism?
It's like telling someone how to raise their kids. You know they are terrible, but it isn't not on the table for discussion. Hey, you tried to help, that is commendable. -

Yes, I do. When I buy the fat like that the butcher usually leaves a few strands of red meat. It makes some really nice snacks once fried and "most" of the fat is rendered. Tastes amazing. Scott
