[QUOTE="Troubled1, post: 1591829, member: 406460"] Monday my fasting bg was 8.1 Yesterday it was 6.7 Today it was 6.2 oddly my bedtime bg’s have only been slightly higher than my bg’s in the morning (.1-.3mmo/l Although we all know ketostix aren’t too reliable, I use them everyday at around noon to see if I’m spilling ketones. Monday there was nothing. Yesterday? Nothing. Today? A moderate reading. I never did like day 3 of fasting and today is no exception. I have had a headache so I’ll be have some bone broth with pink himilayan sea salt. Since Monday morning my weight is down to 190.5 from 196lbs. I know it’s a lot of water weight but I’m sure some fat has been used as well. When I end my fast, which I haven’t decided will be 7, 10 or 14 days, I will slowly refeed. By that I mean I’ll probably start on day one of refeeding with a few handfuls of walnuts scattered throughout the day. Day two I’ll stick with the walnuts but also add in some bulletproof coffee in the morning. I’ll keep adding little bits of food until I’m back up to 1600+ calories but will keep to mostly fats and veggies. As much as I tried after other fasts I have done, I was never able to stay in ketosis for more than a day. This time I’m hoping by gradually adding food, I’ll keep burning fat. [/QUOTE]
