[QUOTE="AloeSvea, post: 1057769, member: 150927"] [FONT=Verdana]Just a note - I realise that fasting Thursday (well - Wednesday night) to Saturday gets interrupted too easily on Friday afternoon - due to the fact I find I have to prepare for early Saturday and I need energy and food to do it. A serious energy boost of ketosis doesn't kick in for me until Day 3, it seems (from past experience), so I will change the 2-3 days to Monday (well - beginning Sunday night) to Wednesday, and see if that prevents the interruption. (It's happened twice already!) I do believe the more natural easy fasters are the ones who don't experience hunger very keenly, and who don't have big energy loss problems on Day 2 like I do (I basically can't do anything except screen time). But, it's still one of the best things for lowering my BG without medication, apart from low-carbing, and, I hope, improving my insulin sensitivity long-term. So far, at least.[/FONT] [/QUOTE]
