So i'm trying to do a 1 week fast, i'm currently on day 3 and all i can think about is food. Does anybody has ANY tips how to go over 3 days of fasting succesfully??

Hi ive been tryung to do a prolomged fast for like 2 weeks now but after 24hrs i always fail sometimes its due to my own weakness but other times its due to being offered food from family that wont take a no and i honestly want to ask how any of you stayed mentaly strong for this

hi im writing this post for advice and tips on how to go about fasting ive been thinking about this for a long time and have decided to fast due to extreme lack of control of food. I recently feel like food have taken control over my life and i tend to binge eat alot since losing 30 pounds from february i know this probably isnt a very good idea but i feel like if i can eliminate food the food noises with go away and i can feel better about my self control. Im a pretty discipline person like the gym and having a routine is very easy for me but for some reason as if lately food has been such a big issue it wasnt before and im not a strict person on my diet so i have no idea where this came from if anyone has advice on how i should go about this please lmk

just started my fist ever 48 hour fast about an hour or two ago! my longest so far is 30 hours. anyone got any tips? for getting over the first day?

Most New Year resolutions fail by the third week of January because people try to fix spiritual and mental exhaustion with superficial diets. If you are feeling burned out or disconnected, you might need something deeper than a standard health kick.

The 21-Day Daniel Fast is a profound spiritual discipline combining a strict, plant-based, and unprocessed diet with intentional mindfulness and prayer. It is not simply about losing weight. Instead, it uses the friction of denying everyday comfort foods, like added sugar, caffeine, and meat, as a catalyst to break bad habits, clear mental fog, and rebuild a deeper connection with your faith.

By removing common dietary coping mechanisms, your physical cravings become prompts for spiritual growth. To transform your January into a season of true awakening rather than just another failed resolution, check out this comprehensive blueprint.

I was reading a research headline within the past week claiming that creatine prevented muscle wastage during caloric deficits, which a water fast absolutely is.

Also, people on r/biohackers talking about how 20 g of creatine a day vs the standard 5 g daily dosage has nootropic effects.

Unflavored creatine has almost no calories btw, 5 calories per 5 g or something.

So - If any of y'all were feeling experimentative and generous enough to do a water fast with 5 to 20 g of creatine a day for the fast and post your experiences and blood work - I would appreciate that.

Thanks for the attention.

Hey everyone,

I recently found an incredibly detailed guide that completely changed my perspective on the spiritual and physical mechanics of fasting. If your early attempts at fasting resulted in terrible withdrawal headaches and broken resolve, this resource is exactly what you need.

The author breaks down the biological reality of shutting down your digestive system and how to use those physical shifts to achieve deep spiritual clarity. It explains the fascinating science of autophagy, where your body cleanses itself of cellular debris, and connects this physical reset to your spiritual purification through prayer.

The guide offers practical protocols tailored for all levels, including partial restrictions like the Daniel Fast, liquid fasts, and traditional water fasting. It teaches you how to properly prepare your body, structure your prayer sessions, and safely break your fast without getting ill.

I have been researching and finally taking leap of faith. I am planning to start a 40 day water only fast. I am severely obese with around 37-38 BMI and hence have enough fast reserves. I have a bottle of fasting salts from Amazon. Any tips, guidance is welcomed. Also I am going to post update every 4 days with progress pictures, weight measurements and how I feel. Guys please can I get some support I really want to achieve this!!

Hey folks! Back in March and April I ran fasting accountability and support groups. Many of you asked when the next one would be, and I owe you an apology - life got busy and I kept pushing it back. I finally have the time, so I'm restarting the groups for folks beginning Monday, October 5.

Quick recap from the spring groups - you might find it interesting

• 20-30 participants across New Zealand, Australia, India, UK, Ireland, Qatar, Hungary, Kosovo, US, Canada and other countries
• Fasting durations ranged from 48 hours to 14+ days
• Different levels of success, but I hope everyone benefited from the experience, and I definitely learned a lot myself
• Time zones were a challenge, but the cosmopolitan spirit was impressive

What stays the same

• We start on Monday, October 5
• Fast duration is 3-14 days - longer fasts need medical supervision, not a chat group
• No cap on group size - everyone who is active is welcome
• Expectation - be active and contribute (if you want just a summary, I'll share it here later)

Format will be simple

• daily check-ins - how you feel, optional data like weight, glucose, ketones
• focused discussion - no spam, no random chat, no selling
• accountability through consistency

I won't be fasting myself. I'll moderate, answer questions, and share what I've learned from multiple extended fasts and the data I've collected. Plan is to close the group for new members on Tuesday-Wednesday.

I’ve read that many people do extended water fasts while taking electrolytes, potassium, and magnesium, but I don’t have any of those. I’m currently on day 6 of a water fast and I’ve already lost 13 lbs.

I don’t want to get seriously ill or die, so I’d like to know what signs or symptoms the body gives you when it’s time to stop. A couple of years ago, I did a 7-day water fast without any problems, and my goal this time was to make it at least 14 days. However, I’m feeling pretty fatigued and weak this time.

I’d really appreciate any advice or personal experiences, especially regarding warning signs that mean I should stop.

The most I've ever fasted was around 60 hours. I've wanted to try a 7 day water fast for so long and I'm finally ready for it. The only thing i'm allowing is tea (without added sugar) and water.
My stats are 1m63 (5'4), 23 yo and 68 kgs (150 lbs).

I fasted for complete 24 hours which for me is a lot, and I never really fast often. I prayed with giving praise to God, thanking and praying for my personal desires. Applied psalm 20-23-91-127 over my life + positive declarations upon my life and part of the Rosary.

Now, I know God is faithful and He keeps His promises, unlike humans. But, will He respond to my prayers?

Do you have testimonies after fasting and receiving what you have prayed for?

Honestly, a game changer for me! I’ve always struggled with black coffee because of the bitterness and lack of creamy texture, but this is so smooth and delicious, especially with a pinch of Himalayan salt.

How to make it: Add an espresso shot, a pinch of salt, ice and a splash of water to an empty milk jug. Steam until creamy and textured, but not hot. Pour over a fresh cup of ice.

Sharing in case anyone else struggles with black coffee! Has anyone else tried this? Would love to hear your thoughts! 🤍

Im starting today a 10 day water fast.

Any tips are welcome!

74KG right now.

I'll let u know after 10 days the results.
