I started my fast that I committed to as well after dinner last night.

I HAVE to get on that blame laptop...smh. (I actually found my old profile by scrolling through Deb's old post instead of bothering with the laptop.) I have committed to 5 days and will consider 7, though.

Hey Chubbamumba, I use a laptop, so I can't speak to the phone app. Go to the 'My Fatsecret' tab. Then look to the right of the scroll under the heading - community-, there you will find a challenges listing. Look for the 'find challenges' link. You should see it listed there. That's for the longer fast next week. If you want to join us Now, we're fasting MTuW, You can just join in on the discussion in this thread. Welcome!

I started fasting yesterday afternoon (Sunday) and plan to break fast Wed am.

I committed to a 48-hour fast. I started Sunday after dinner, about 6 pm. I will go until at least 6 pm on Tuesday. I probably will just wait until sometime Wednesday to break it, though. I really don't want to wait until that later in the day to eat after a fast, thus the reason for probably going a little longer than 48 hours, but not quite 72. It's hard for me to rest well at night when I break a fast that late in the evening. If I do the complete 72, that means I've got to really do at least 84 for said reasons. Also...I'm really anxious to get back to my tweak in eating to see if it works like it should. Not that I'm hungry at all, just VERY curious about what my results will be. 🫰🫰🫰

@chubbamubba... research & make sure you don't have any medical conditions that could be effected by fasting. If you do have hb pressure or diabetes specifically, make sure you of your doctor monitors you carefully because taking those types of meds combined with fasting can be dangerous. As in... taking those meds with fasting may actually drop those numbers TOO LOW. 😉

@Erika I hope you put some type of warning like that on the challenge...

Hi Zenus, no I did not, but you could add it in the comments as part of the fasting discussion. I was thinking that anyone whose launching into a 5-7 day fast would have some fasting experience. It's not really a first fast to try.

Also, I liked your point about not breaking the fast in the evening, right before bed. Anyway, 24 hours in, I'm doing oK. A little hungry and it's strange to just watch dinner time slipping by, but I've got a big bottle of electrolyte water that I'm sipping on and about to cue up some Netflix.

Same here, Erika, 24 hours in. Feeling grand! There were plenty of leftovers for the kids so I'm not cooking tonight.
