I’ll look some time soon when I’m at the store (live in IL). If they have some, I’ll grab a box and mail you some if you like. I never go through ephedrine fast enough to worry about the box a month rule here. Probably buy 2 boxes a year lol.wrong...here in Indiana I don't think they sell the reds any longer-meth is popular here...
that is good info on the time release, I didn't know that...I bet the taste is awful though?
What time is it now? What's your time zone?Day 2
Woke up a bit nauseous and brain foggy. Thinking that today I get into ketosis. Have to be cautious. Last time I passed out at work. Will power through.
Late at night, sitting in front of my PC is when the cravings hit. Instead of walking to the fridge, l went looking for my cats. Will interchange behaviour patterns on purpose.

I live in Bananaland (Paraguay, a country near Narnia). No ketone strips here. I will get into ketosis no matter what. Your username, LMAO!Great job! Going to sleep is always hardest to me. Pick up some of these (there is supposed to be a pic of ketone strips) and youll know if you're in ketosis. They are very empowering. View attachment 179700
Yep, I'm prepared. At least with supplements -no idea if mentally prepared, LOL.Salt and electrolytes, get enough. Do not overdo water in a glycogen depleted state or you will flush the electrolytes out quickly.
Judging by your avatar pic, you don't need to. I'm the fat fugg here.In. No way in hell I could ever do something like this.
Did intermittent fasting for a few month prior, with a 3 hour feeding window. Everything is like before -I only miss the 3 hours of feeding. Hehehe!I’ve been fasting a lot lately, dealing with an injury and put on some extra lbs, so figured I would try it out. I’ve been doing 16-24 hour fasts multiple times a week and having great results. I see a huge difference after the 24 hour fasts. I am very interested to see how this works out for you. Also have to say I’m blown away by your pond. Very impressive!
Did you make any dietary changes leading up to this fast? I've always wanted to do a water fast, but a lot of people say you need to go vegan for a few months beforehand, and I'm definitely not doing that.Did intermittent fasting for a few month prior, with a 3 hour feeding window.

Don't need to go vegan first, that would make it worse. If anything, lower carbs, up the fat intake before a fast. That will make you insulin sensetive, and better able to handle low blood sugar levels prior to a extended fast.Did you make any dietary changes leading up to this fast?

ValiantThor08 nailed it. I started low carb two days prior. This will help getting me in ketosis faster. I'm a bit wary about low blood sugar. Now watching out for fainting spells.Don't need to go vegan first, that would make it worse. If anything, lower carbs, up the fat intake before a fast.

It will pass. After day 3, the body will be like, "this guy ain't giving us sugar, get better at using fat".ValiantThor08 nailed it. I started low carb two days prior. This will help getting me in ketosis faster. I'm a bit wary about low blood sugar. Now watching out for fainting spells.
I can imagine. For me the first 4-5 hours are the worst, then I am just simply not thinking of food. But when I do break the fast sometimes the hunger is unreal... sometimes I feel like I should just keep riding it out, which I why I’m curious to see where you wind up results wise. Also did you consider just dropping to trt dose since your not training?Did intermittent fasting for a few month prior, with a 3 hour feeding window.

Not using anything for cortisol control -nor appetite suppressants. But some gear . That should balance it out somewhat.If you do some HIIT, you will speed up the process, and be pretty exhausted. Dont forget to up KSM66 dose, your cortisol levels are heightened.
Gear help cortisol control lol?! Hope you are able to fall asleep well.Not using anything for cortisol control -nor appetite suppressants. But some gear . That should balance it out somewhat.
I started NPP a few weeks ago. 300mg/w test with 300mg/w NPP . It is a mild dosing protocol and perfect for retaining muscles while fasting, I guess.I can imagine.

What is the perceived effect of fasting for healing in your case?I’ve been fasting a lot lately, dealing with an injury and put on some extra lbs....
Right, muscle preserving. However, cortisol raises on a fast making it more difficult to fall asleep, and stay asleep. Unfortunate that they don't have the same supplements in other countries.My bro-science: Cortisol = catabolic / gear = anabolic
Thing is, I don't live where you live. I cant get any fancy supplement here. I would love to follow your suggestion and take KSM66. By the time it gets here (3 weeks) I'm already done with the fast.
Do you know any natural supplement for cortisol control (I'm too lazy to google)? Maybe I have some stashed away.Right, muscle preserving.

You'll know when you're in a deep ketosis even with out them as extreme as you're going. Man, I almost feel like charity mailing you some thoughI live in Bananaland (Paraguay, a country near Narnia). No ketone strips here. I will get into ketosis no matter what. Your username, LMAO!

On the other hand, staying awake burns more calories

Autophagy and, decreased inflamation, but ice baths are the real healing power if you need to heal.What is the perceived effect of fasting for healing in your case?
Leptin can suck my dick, LOL. My old hairy body has to function without it, for awhile. Its not 3 days fasting, that would be for puzzies. Its 7 days -or longer (that is the plan, swallowing a fly by accident doesn't count).You'll know when you're in a deep ketosis even with out them as extreme as you're going. Man, I almost feel like charity mailing you some though
Be careful with going on such long term fasts as some hormones(leptin) need carbs to make and that's the hormone that tells your body it's ok to burn stored fat, so your fast would be miserable and less effective if you have low leptin. I usually do carb refeeds after 3-4days of eating keto to avoid this loss of leptin. Not sure how it would look fasting over 3 days, so I'm very interested in your experience.
How do you feel? You should be getting over the hump soon!
To be honest, had to google "autophagy" hoping it was a new fetish . Decreased inflammation is very welcome. Ice baths.... no way! I mean, it may be good for your health -but nah, I would prefer self flagellation.Autophagy and, decreased inflamation, but ice baths are the real healing power if you need to heal.
Honestly? No idea. Will deal with it when its time. Before fainting, I'll try to lay down on the floor. Hopefully that doesn't happen in a Supermarket or while driving -but I try to stay home for the duration of the fast, I work in the same building I'm living in.How do you manage feeling faint/passing out and feeling the shakes while fasting? I can barely go 72hrs and then can hardly stand. I take it you just suck it up and keep going?
I imagine the electrolytes hope tremendously with this. Good luck and more power to you!Honestly? No idea. Will deal with it when its time. Before fainting, I'll try to lay down on the floor.

Thank you! The electrolytes are more to address possible cramping. There is not much I can do for the side effects when getting in ketosis, besides eating carbs - and that brother, will not happen!I imagine the electrolytes hope tremendously with this. Good luck and more power to you!
