Sorry to ask, but what are you doing? Is this something like intermittent fasting?

21 sats \ 4 replies \ @Undisciplined OP 14 Feb

Exactly. The first number is how long I went until eating again and the number in parentheses is how long I went without eating or drinking (dry fasting).

I see. Does that mean that on the 11th you went 20 hours without eating? So you only had one meal that day?

21 sats \ 2 replies \ @Undisciplined OP 14 Feb

Yep, I had stopped eating after lunch, because I had filled up on Super Bowl leftovers.

wow I'm surprised, the goal is to lose weight? Wasn't it difficult at first?

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @Undisciplined OP 14 Feb

It was mildly difficult at first, but I've been doing it for a long time now. This month I'm just paying more attention to the habit, in order to strengthen it a bit.

I think of the purpose being better health, more broadly. A little weight loss wouldn't be bad, though.

I feel hungry just reading this.

41 sats \ 1 reply \ @Undisciplined OP 14 Feb

I felt hungry writing it, so I ate something.

39 sats \ 0 replies \ @Aardvark 14 Feb

That's probably a good idea, I usually only fast when I'm sleeping, although I wouldn't be shocked to find out that I eat when I sleep too.

I truly congratulate you, you are an example of perseverance and dedication. Tell me how do you feel? What physical and mental changes has this challenge brought you?

0 sats \ 2 replies \ @Undisciplined OP 14 Feb

Thanks, I've been meaning to write some reflections in these.

The two things that have been most noticeable are reduced hunger cravings and more vivid dreams.

37 sats \ 1 reply \ @Msd0457890 14 Feb

When you refer to more vivid dreams you talk about "a more pleasant rest?

No, but that might be more related to the kid being sick lately.
