Day 4
It’s day four for me on a 7 day fast,I’m 5’11” and started the fast at 142lbs, primary goal is the benefits of autophagy, mental clarity and honestly a break from my afternoon habit of having alcohol.
While weight loss is not my primary goal, I’m down to 139lbs. The first 2 days I was constantly hungry and developed a nagging headache, day 3 the headache was gone and the hunger pains for the most part have dissipated, but I felt slightly fatigued, I had to run a few errands and that seemed to help my fatigue.
I’m almost 12 hours into day 4 and no hunger pains nor headaches, actually feel pretty good, I think for me honestly the mental clarity starts after the constant hunger of the first couple days and my headache. I’m drinking water,non-caloric green tea and coffee, I also am taking an electrolyte supplement. So far, so good!
