I finished a 72 hour fast yesterday. I'm still not all that good at breaking the fast as I was a tad bit 'loose with the caboose' last night and sort of the same this morning. Still a work in progress, I guess. My next attempt will be fruit. I have read melons are a good choice but I can't think of any of the melon family I actually like. This one was the first one in a while that I got hungry, actually hungry, going into day #3. Most of them is a little hunger around 24-36 hours and then none afterwards. I was standing int he shift meeting at 7PM Thursday night about to starve. A co-worker who went carnivore and lost a hundred pounds last year (carnivore, fasting and has switched back to some fruits) was standing beside me and he could hear my stomach growling. I have not had a stomach growl in what seems like forever. If I had brought something to work, I would have broken the fast then, but I stuck it out. I was pretty much hungry all night. Around 3AM I went to the vending machine and the only thing remotely close to what I will eat is beef jerky and of course, that slot was empty. So, I toughed it out. At 7AM I told my co-worker I could have 'eaten the hind end out of dead skunk' and he said "that would still qualify as carnivore but he would go another route'. I broke the fast with a small portion of eggs and here we are waiting to see if I am normal again on Saturday morning. LOL Scott
