Denis's total fast

Zero Carb Chronicles Retrieved from: http://zero-carb.blogspot.com/feeds/posts/default?alt=rss Hi all!!!

If you remember, a few months ago, I was having problems getting rid of “these last extra pounds” even if I was eating “TWO ZC meals per day”. This is when I tried to do a “ONE ZC meal regiment a day”, eating once in the evening and fasting other 23 hours which was, at the end, an “intermittent fasting” way of eating (IF).

I had great success then, putting weight off, but a long flight with severe jet-lag consequences broke my routine and I never could go back “on my one meal per day” way of eating that I maintained for 6 weeks.

I was sort of upset about this and did some research to discover it was probably the time for me to go for some time on a “TOTAL FAST regiment”, to sort of RESET my metabolism.

The idea of not eating at all scared my in the beginning because as many of us, hunger is an emotion I do not handle well. But in my readings, I founded the testimony of one guy doing a total fast and it was enough to convince me to give it a try. He was saying:

“I came to realize hunger pangs are short-lived and pass quickly, making it very doable”.

So here I am, at Day #3 of a TOTAL FAST.

I feel quite relax, and have already lost 5.9 lbs of the 25 lbs I want to loose.

Hunger sensations do come here and there but nothing I cannot deal with. A little sip of sparkling water seems to be enough to kill it.

I sleep much better, I do not feel weak at all, and feel positive about this experiment.

My readings taught me the first 3 days of any TOTAL fast are the worst. Well I am at Day # 3 and if it stays like this, it should not be too difficult to continue.

I have to admit I choose a quiet moment of my life to embark on this total fast and everyone around me was told not to stress me with unimportant stuff. I know this is an essential requirement for me for succeed.

So I am quite excited and, of course, will keep you all posted.

Denis
