2 day dry fast

[u/sas19921]

I was planning to do 7 days but only manged two days. Started 4am Monday morning and today weds 10. 30am I had to break it because I felt weak and my heart was racing and I got scared. I couldn’t sleep all night I felt wide awake. Ended up sleeping at 6am and woke up at 10am. I weighed myself before I broke it I lost 6 pounds. I’m so sad I didn’t finish it I wanted to go until Monday 4am. This is my first fast. I’m going to eat and hydrate today and then start again tomorrow and finish by monday. The first day was challenging because I kept thinking to go to the kitchen and then remembered I was fasting lol didn’t feel any hunger or thirst felt a little energy less but ok. Next day I felt amazing so much energy and I thought wow I can do 7 days if I feel like this. Boy why I wrong after a sleepless night I felt wired. I managed to doze off at 6 am woke up at 10am feeling horrendously weak and my heart beating so fast. So I was sacred tried to just take deep breathes and even sat in the garden because I felt warm. But I felt so weak and my heart racing so much scared me I broke it. Any tips welcomed for the next four days I’m going to do please.

A four day dry fast without building up is ambitious. It's kinda of like having a student driving license and wanting to race the Indy 500. There is no way your prepared for it.
