I have not eaten in 3 days, AMA

[Gengar’s Ghost]

are extreme diets/fasts the only reliable way for you to lose weight too?

Yes, or at least the method that gives me instant results.

when did you last eat

 

[The Homelander]

Are you doing this voluntarily as fasting or for another reason, What do you hope to achieve?

Do you drink water?

And do you still feel as energetic as you were before you stopped eating?

Eating disorder twitter? I’m just guessing it stands for that.

 

[Gengar’s Ghost]

Nope, I’m too lazy for that shit.

Sunday night

I’m doing this for another reason (weight loss), and no I don’t drink water.

Strangely enough I don’t feel a difference! I’m not less energetic at all but one thing I do have is a slight headache which I’m guessing stems either from dehydration or because of the water I was forced to drank a few days ago (before fasting, like one or two days before). I noticed that when I am forced to drink water, I always end up with a headache days later since I don’t drink it at all anymore.

Is it because of some water withdrawal symptoms? Does that even exist? Not sure, but I’ve noticed this happens. Normally I’m forced to drink water every few months but even then I just drink half a glass rather than an entire glass of water.

yes, perfect candidate

 

[Gengar’s Ghost]

yes, perfect candidate

I don’t think I qualify because despite all this I’m skinny fat due to cursed South Asian fat storing genetics.

 

[IOS]

How is it possible? I turn insane if i don't eat for a day but I also have a very large appetite

I’m confused on how you can go so long with no water, but in my opinion even if you want to stop eating you should at least drink water but it’s up to you

Also, try adding a pinch of salt to your water because sodium is an essential electrolyte, or you could try drinking some coconut water which has both sodium and potassium in a good balance

This is probably why you are getting headaches because your body is deficient in water and electrolytes

do you feel and act more like a bitch when doing 24h+ fasts? srs

You gotta keep going at it, it’s not easy in the beginning but it’s possible.

Well, I do drink soda and I drink chai, all the ingredients include water basically (maybe milk doesn’t but idk), I think that’s why I don’t have to rely on water. What do you think?

Yeah, but not always. Today I was very social even though I had not eaten a thing since Sunday night.

It’s alright to drink other liquids than water, but if I were you I would drink 15 cups of water per day(which is the recommended amount of daily water intake for an adult male)

Soda, milk, and chai contain water too but not as much as a regular water. So if you wanted to you could lower the amount of water drank per day from 15 to for example, 12 cups per day as long as you also drink other liquids

You’re kidding me, right? 15 cups of water a day? Goddamn just how many toilet visits would that translate to. I guess I’m really dehydrated then since I just don’t drink that much soda either.

Dude I don’t wanna ask you anything let me out of your basement idk anything about mossad!!!

In my experience when I didn’t used to drink much water versus now where I drink a lot of water, the increase in trips to the bathroom isn’t that much, but for me it’s worth it because I feel way better and don’t get any headaches

’m 5’10” or 5’11” (not entirely sure, don’t really care enough to see), I’m almost on day 5. I gotta say, for me the toughest days were the first two. Impressive that you did a 28 day water fast. Mine is not really a water fast since I drink whatever I want, so I call it drinkfasting instead. For instance, I drink chai, Coke Zero, etc. My weight was ~68 kg when I started (I had gone last year from 85 kg to 60 kg, then I stopped dieting and got around 62 kg, then because of Ramadan I ate way more than usual instead of OMAD, and I got to ~69 kg).

Yea, day 2 and 3 are insanely though for most people. Honestly as long as your consuming 0 calorie drinks its kinda whatever. Jesus 85kgs down to 60kgs mirin. It's crazy the resulsts you see from water fasting, if you walk and your semi active you can easily burn 2500 calories a day. Do you plan on extending your fast, if so for how long?

Water fasting has so many positive affects on your body, cells ect, biggest scam we are thought in life is that breakfast is the most important meal lmfao.

Currently on my own water fast atm trying to lean down(day 8 atm)

Sadly, I’m not consuming 0 kcal drinks, since I don’t drink water. I drink chai and coke zero (I guess technically that’s a 0.3 kcal so it would be a 0 kcal drink if we round it down). And haha thanks, going from 85 kg to 60 kg took me 4 or 5 months, I don’t remember. I actually managed to lose weight just by dieting, I did not exercise or walk.

No, I plan on eating tomorrow again, meaning when I wake up. In 20 minutes it’s gonna be 96 hours since I last ate (or possibly a bit longer). I plan to eat again after the 100 hour mark, but by that time I’ll already be going to sleep, so I’ll eat something small when I wake up.

I plan on doing OMAD again after this. Wow, you’re on day 8! Props, man. That’s amazing. I did 8 days once too but I was giga depressed so it wasn’t for leanmaxxing purposes.

Thank you brother, good luck to you too! You are doing a much better job than I anyway haha.

 

[Lord Shadow]

I'm doing this too mirin, vyvanse is basically ozempic

 

[Gengar’s Ghost]

what does the gif in ur avi from

It’s from The Brutalist (2024), it received a few Oscar awards, including for Best Actor in Adrien Brody’s honor. That makes him a two-time Oscar winner, the first one at age 29, making him the youngest actor to win an Oscar, a record that’s still not been broken as of today. He received the Oscar in 2003.

That's insane to do in 4-5 months, what did you eat and what was your calorie intake?

I plan on doing OMAD again after this. Wow, you’re on day 8! Props, man. That’s amazing. I did 8 days once too but I was giga depressed so it wasn’t for leanmaxxing purposes.

Yea bro, OMAD is fucking amazing i love having one big meal a day. People mostly get fat from "snacking"


Also insane the fact you were able to pass the 1 week mark, i would say around 7-10 days it gets kinda rough again, at least for me it did.

Only issue i hate about fasting is my fucking sleep, i legit can't sleep properly because of hunger hormones keep you awake i guess my brain dosent want me to ascend.

And nahhh i'm not doing better then you bro, i'm fucking on r/Water_Fasting for years whenever i fast LOL, it inspires me, check if out if you want or just for fun

 

[Lord Shadow]

yeah its like the newest adhd drug, I took it at 10 but it keeps getting stronger and last like 10 hrs and basically kills ur desire for food (and fapping too lol) I'm fat asf though so I like it also I actually have adhd so its just helpful in general

Last year I would incorporate drinkfasting in my first month, in total I didn’t eat for 10 days spread over 4 weeks. That helped a lot, afterwards I switched to OMAD, and I would only eat dinner. Either what was made at home (so Pakistani dishes) or I would order takeout (East Asian dishes, usually Korean fried chicken or sushi).

But I noticed with sushi I’d gain a lot of weight, I don’t know why that is. Maybe because of the type of rice and vinegar which has salt-like components which contributes to bloat. On top there would also be sauce haha. I didn’t necessarily eat big meals for OMAD because I was afraid I’d gain more than I wanted.

What about you, what do you eat for OMAD meals? I also cut off snacks completely, no more candy, chocolates, ice creams, Lay’s, etc. I kept that up for half a year before I decided to eat some of it every now and then.

Dudeeeee!!! Exactly, I’m so sleep-deprived, I don’t sleep much. It’s less than 5 hours a night. And falling asleep is a bit harder too. But I had no idea it was related to my dieting. Makes sense though now that I think about it.

Sure I’ll check out water_fasting; I don’t think I’ll be employing this tactic again (because I’ve done it so many times, first in 2019 and then in 2024 again and now this year). And you should give yourself more credit, what you do is so much harder!

Apologies for the walls of text
