I'm fasting. I've gone about 62 hours on liquids. (sugar free lemonade, water,stevia soda, tea and coffee). The weight is falling off, but we'll see how much of it stays off. I've been learning about autophagy, growth hormones and stem cell regeneration, so I'm hoping for health benefits. Last time I fasted, it lowered my blood pressure set point. I'm hoping for a body weight set point, reset.

Lots of water and I have an electrolyte powder to mix in once a day. Duration? I'll keep it up as long as I'm feeling okay. Today is day three when the autophagy benefits kick in; growth hormone and stem cells take a little longer. I'm going on vacation on Saturday, so that will end it, if not sooner.

electrolyte powder (I use a liquid extract) is the key thing. Good luck!

Good luck with the liquid fast! I've done 72 hour fasts a couple of times and actually enjoy them, once I'm in over a day or so. The tough part for me is ending the fast without eating too much.

You've inspired me! I'll think I'll try to do a 72 hour liquid fast to end the month, maybe Thursday, Friday and Saturday.

Fritzy, It's been pretty easy for me, though I was dreading it. I put it off, but once I got started, it just flowed. I'm still on it.
