I started my fast at 14.00 today. I am going to do a minimum of 2 days or 2 kgs loss (I know 1 kg will be water in my case so want 1 kg in hand to go on holiday with). My weight wants a homestatic level of 84.5 to 85 kg, so I want a buffer.
If you would like to join in feel free. I have plagiarised details from previous fasts for possible participants and safety advice, so some invites are @rab5 @rom35 @ @wiflib @jasmindesylva @david1968@swavbags @Hotpepper20000 @bulkbiker @kamsamji @Happyhomelands@vanillapie @lindijanice @FantomPoet @ianpspurs @Robbity @Goonergal
WARNINGS
If you feel ill or experience significant hunger whilst fasting please eat something. It is meant to make you feel better not worse.
If you are on blood sugar lowering meds please monitor blood glucose very carefully (we don't want to induce any hypos). Keep hydrated and maybe have some extra salt.
There are no specific fasting methods or any minimum time limits so come and go as you wish.
For first timers have a read of this
