@vicky2c People …
Although this time around I’m not having her stop by since its so short.
@vicky2c People have been fasting from the beginning of time – no certified folks back then. I have a friend who is a nurse & she stopped by after work once a week. All they really need to do is take your stats, ask you how your doing, how much water your drinking and make sure your not losing it
@sweetp888t thanks. …
@sweetp888t thanks..way to go btw..awesome,. Oh so you could get a nurse to monitor you? and all this time I thought I needed to go to a retreat. (although it would be nice, I have too many responsibilities at home. I would love that. what state are you living in? maybe I could use the same nurse. I don’t know how I would go about that. I thought they needed to be certified in fasting.
@vicky2c I am on …
@vicky2c I am on day 5 now. I did a 28 day water fast earlier this year with a weekly check in with a nurse. I didn’t have any issues. This time around is going beautifully. Some people do gain a bit of weight on LFRV in the beginning- it could be muscle or just your body figuring out whats its doing. You also need to make sure you are eating tons of mono fruit meals to start with so you get acclimated to the diet. However, any long term LFRV is fit as a fiddle.
How long are you …
How long are you fasting for? Are you going to be supervised if you go longer than 4 days?? It does get pretty risky to go without supervision. Anyway, good luck to you..My longest fast was 4.5 days and I was still really hungry. That was years ago. I also gained some weight on lfrv..weird.
Congrats

Girl having no headache is my goal to. I think as long as you dont think about the fast too much and drink your water headaches dont come. Headaches usually make me end the fast asap.

@ …
@SilentPrayingmanTis Yeah about 5-7% of my calories come from protein while many people shoot for 40-50%. I do the P90x lean so I really don’t think there’s much resistance in there because I do lower weights/more reps. Feeling great!!!
