Ate a little later yesterday.

I took my daughter for a scooter ride on a trail near our house (I was walking) and she wanted to go farther than normal. Great for the steps challenge. Then, as soon as we turned around to go home, she decided she was too tired to scoot anymore. So, I got to do the return leg of the walk carrying both the kid and her scooter.

We were out about an hour longer than expected, hence the later meal.

Score Card

Day 1: 14 hour fast (13 dry) Day 2: 15 hour fast (14 dry) Day 3: 17 hours (16 dry) Day 4: 18 hours (17 dry) Day 5: 18 hours (16 dry) Day 6: 19 hours (16 dry) Day 7: TBD (15 dry)

One thing I've learned from fasting is that it's ok to skip a meal, or two... For example, I was on jury service last week, and the food they served in the canteen was terrible, so I wouldn't eat the whole day, and it was fine, no drama...

How's your sleep? I usually dream a lot when dry fasting,very vivid dreams, and I love it, lol.

Interesting that you mention dreams and sleep. I have been having more vivid dreams than normal. I haven't been sleeping quite as well as normal, but that could be related to other things.

Your point about it being ok to skip meals is huge. I think people would be a lot healthier if they understood that not eating anything is usually better than eating garbage.
