I'd be happy to restart. I thought I'd do an alternate day fast this month, so eat on Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday and Sunday. Fast for 42 hours.

I'm struggling to fast this week. I'm hungry in the evening and in the end yesterday had some cheese and crackers (seed crackers - low carb). Not sure if I'm not taking enough salt or just because it's wet, windy, cold and grey.

I'm doing a short fast at the moment. Sunday night to Tuesday lunchtime-is. I'll aim for 42 hours. Coffee with cream this morning followed by tea during the day. Pink Himalayan salt helps.

I bought fennel seeds from an Indian shop as they're priced well. I think 300gm for £1.50. Just put few seeds in a mug fill with hot water and enjoy. I thought it was better than buying teabags.

Hello All, I've just seen this thread and thought I would respond. I've been fasting since Sunday night. My longest fast to date is 3 days - but not recent. I've found fasting difficult recently, so this time I added in salt. I have read so many times that you need salt when fasting - just...
