Ended a 48 hour fast today because I was emotionally bonking. Maybe not a great idea to start a fast while moving our office.

@k00b is training hard! it's also important to eat cleaner going into the fast... becuz ur body will operate based on the latest available inputs;

k00b is no fasting n00b. My longest was 21 days. My second longest was 14 days. I’ve done many 10 days. More 5 days. I spent a few months eating every other day.

I’m out of practice. It’s also much harder to fast when I’m trying to maximize focused work.

that's highly inspirational! how did u get into this discipline?

what kinds of liquids do u take in during the fast and how much time do u spend in the sun?

I find all of nothing things easier to do. Meaning, not eating is easier than eating less for me. I’m also fat and that makes fasting much easier. I started fasting intuitively in high school, but rediscovered it when keto became a thing.

I’d drink water and black coffee. I’d walk for an hour or so a day then, but wasn’t otherwise intentional about sun. During the 14 day I trained BJJ on my regular schedule.

if u are out in the sun, ur mitochondria will harvest more energy from the sun thru melanin, and consequently need fewer calories thru food; i call it being "photoelectrically efficient;" if u walk in the cold shirtless under the sun, that's even better;
