Water Fasting – Day 2

by takuin on Monday, February 2, 2009 · 6 comments

Nothing special to report today. Sleep has remained unaffected, and there is still no real desire for food.

For anyone else doing this, I would recommend you always know where the nearest restrooms are. :)

is this mere coincidence?
i’m undergoing water fasting too,
with occasional interruption of young coconut juice :-)

I’m actually water fasting too. I’m glad I found the post. The funny thing is that my body is already in ‘fasting mode’ because I do not eat carbohydrates. I’m wondering what the difference will be between true water fasting and eating small high fat high protein meals. I’m about to find out I guess.

Good…let’s share the deprivation together!

You will find out soon enough, haha. There is a big difference, but it may take a few days to really sit into it.

Today is day 3. Only 25 left to go…

I’ve typically had some food cravings on day 2 or 3, then they pass. But I eat Carbs and evidently this is an effect of carb withdrawal. They’re a kind of slow sugar. Were you a coffee and donut eater, it might be a different story…

Davidya,

I don’t want to think about the crash a donut addict would have to go through. It probably rivals the DTs.

But good news on my side. I was trolling the markets this morning and found a drink heavy in B vitamins with no calories or preservatives. I was surprised to find it. B1, B2, B6, along with a few other goodies. It is barely 100ml, and has a sharp, biting taste. I can’t say that it tastes “good,” but having another source of B vitamins can’t hurt. I’ll sneak this drink in every few days or so.
