Did a 5 day fast water last week, was a breeze
Will do another one this week, and then another one, and then another one if I still don't see all my abs

Anyone has any tips on not having diarrhea on my refeed day? Other than that, it was all gucci, lost 2kg

I ate a chicken sandwich yesterday. It was okay.

what are you eating? I hope it's lightly cooked meat and fermented veggies.
You won't have much of a surviving gut biome to handle anything more.

Broke it on Saturday man, broke it with coconut water and some boiled eggs with mayo, still got the runs during the day for about 8hrs since breaking, then everything went great, throughout Sat night and Sun I ate normally, even indulged in cake and a bigass hamburger from those gourmet delis that are popping up everywhere, with two 180g beef patties, double bacon and cheese
oh and a couple of beers, no issue (other than what I've already mentioned)

Reason I'm asking is because it kinda sucks having to be at home for 8hrs to deal with the shits, but it's ok if I can't stay home I'll just extend my fast until when I can

this fucking thread is dead wtf. i need motivation people start talking

maybe try next time just meat / broth. It might be the sugar in your coconut water. Everyone's gut is different so you gotta document and go scientific method to figure it out.

yeah that's what I'll do, I was just trying to slim down the list of things to try based on other people's experience
I really wished I could get my hands on bone broth but my butcher didn't have bones

this as well lel

Have any of you actually even done a 7+ day fast? Im thinking you're all bullshit.

ask me in 5 days, if i'm not dead

30 hours lads

I did a 8days, didn't need more than that, now I'm just doing OMAD for maintanace and doing 48hr every other weekend

I'm going to attempt one. Farthest I've gone was 78hrs. I plan on working out to so I hope I don't die

47 hours and counting

THE BEST WAY TO CONVINCE HIM IS TO DO IT YOURSELF. LEAD BY EXAMPLE.

BECAUSE HE TALKS ABOUT HOW HE'S RIGHT ON THE EDGE OF GETTING SLEEP AND NOT GETTING SLEEP. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS EAT ENOUGH. WATCH HIS RECENT VIDEOS.

>Can't you lose muscle when you lift?
AS YOU NORMALLY CAN, YES.
>Since you are tearing up the muscle there is nothing to fix it?
IF YOU HAVE ADEQUATE AMOUNTS OF FAT, YOUR BODY WILL BE ABLE TO REPAIR IT FROM FOOD STORAGE. HOWEVER, IF YOU'RE A HIGH LEVEL ATHLETE, THERE'S JUST NO WAY YOU CAN DO PROLONGED FASTS WITHOUT LOSING MORE STRENGTH THAN YOU CAN RECOVER.

IT'S A BASELINE RECIPE FOR YOU TO ADJUST TO YOUR LIKING.

SNAKE JUICE FAST + PHYSICAL ACTIVITY, DRY FAST ON REST DAYS.
GOOD LUCK.

How do I find food grade Epsom salt at Walmart?

Why does this happen

you can also just look for a magnesium laxative in a drugstore, it's the same thing

That sounds like it would be a like 26,000% marked up though, right?

ABOUT TO FINISH COLLEGE AND GET A JOB AT THE USDA.
ANOTHER POSSIBLE CAREER CHOICE IS FAT LOSS COACH, WHICH I'M SERIOUSLY CONTEMPLATING SINCE IT'S SOMETHING I'D DO FOR FREE.

YES, HE HAS SAID BEFORE THAT YOU CAN DRINK PLAIN WATER ALONGSIDE SNAKE JUICE. HE MENTIONS THIS WHENEVER DEHYDRATION COMES UP.

COOK MEALS THAT TAKE A LONG TIME TO FINISH. AND WHO SAID YOU HAVE TO EAT IT? IF COOKING WERE YOUR PASSION, THEN YOU'D COOK. EATING IS NOT THE REWARD.
>what should my protein macros look like?
GENERAL CONSENSUS SAYS 1G OF PROTEIN PER 1LB OF *LEAN* MUSCLE MASS. POWERLIFTERS GO AS HIGH AS 2G, SO IT DEPENDS ON YOUR GOALS AND FITNESS LEVEL.

>I do water-fasts, i'm also smoking to boost my metabolism
JESUS FUCKING CHRIST. TAKE YOUR SNAKE JUICE AND STOP SMOKING. YOU ARE *NOT* GETTING A METABOLIC BOOST FROM CIGARETTES, THAT'S YOUR BODY FIGHTING OFF FUCKING POISON.

not sure how expensive it is in the US, but here in Mexico a little box costs like 2 dollars with enough magnesium for 5 snake juice liters

THE SHIT I GOT WAS THEIR 'EQUATE' BRAND EPSOM SALT, WHICH I BELIEVE WAS IN THE PHARMACY SECTION. IF IT SAYS IT CAN BE USED AS A LAXATIVE, THAT MEANS YOU CAN INGEST IT. IT WAS REALLY, REALLY CHEAP IIRC.

Regular epsom salt at Walmart is like $4 for 5 lbs,

>drinking laxatives when you have no food in your stomach
That doesn't sound healthy

whats your major?
Food science?

>AS YOU NORMALLY CAN

what do you mean by this? I'm a fatty. I have maybe 70ibs to lose and I want to lose it fast. I'm talking really fast. The only way I can think of is maybe maybe OME2D or if I can OMAW it I'll lose more.

I want to work out because if I'm gonna lose the weight, I want to have a least some muscle under all this fat

How long should I fast to lose fifteen pounds?

you want to lose 70 lbs really fast while also building muscle

let us know when you discover this revolutionary method, you'll become the richest man in the world

Going to be a week since I started fasting. Did a 3 day fast then from that point I've been doing 2 day fasts with OMAD when I do eat. My meals I keep keto.

Started at 187lbs, currently @ 180lbs. Still consistently losing weight, been playing basketball and weightlifting. I love to eat but I am holding myself pretty well.

Do you get the shits/squirts on your refeed days?

Till the 15 pounds are gone. U mental?

I might be mental but I just want to know what I'm getting into.

Well if you're a hamplanet 15 pounds will take less than a week fasting. If you're trying to lose your last 15 pounds then you might have to fast/omad/fast/omad/fast/omad until you get it.

Thanks. Yeah it's the last fifteen pounds then I'll finally be sexy.

Can you fast while taking Lexapro/escitalopram?

fastest for 2 weeks 6 months ago, gained half of the weight back in a few weeks so only lost like 4-5kg

However it completely changed my desire for food, I've been steadily losing weight ever since barely even trying and when i don't try at all I don't even gain anything, I have to force myself to eat to gain any weight

also I've noticed that my abdomen is much flatter than at the same bf% I was years ago

If Cole says it's possible then there's a chance that it is. He did say he trains the fat people in his group to do long fasts and workout.

>post more stories fatties
Still haven't been able to take a shit in 2019. Bought laxatives that'll hopefully arrive soon. Getting a bit worried.

eeh, i'm sure you can get some noob gains, maybe, but i'd focus on losing the 70lbs first, then start eating for gains and muscle building

WHY AM I COMPELLED TO REPLY TO THIS IDIOTIC RESPONSE? IS IT A SHITPOST? I'LL GIVE YOU THE BENEFIT OF THE DOUBT THAT YOU'RE JUST UNINFORMED.
THE RECOMMENDED DOSAGE OF MAGNESIUM IN SNAKE JUICE IS 200 MG. THAT'S 200 MILLIGRAMS. AND TO TOP IT OFF, IT IS *OPTIONAL*. FIND OUT HOW MUCH YOU NEED TO TAKE FOR IT TO BE A LAXATIVE, HOW MUCH YOUR BODY USES ON A DAILY BASIS, AND HOW MUCH YOU HAVE STORED.

PLANT SCIENCE.

IF YOU'RE ON A CALORIC DEFICIT, YOU'LL LOSE MUSCLE WHEN YOU WORK OUT, RIGHT? SAME APPLIES WHEN YOU'RE EATING 0 CALORIES.
BUT, LET'S SAY YOU'VE BEEN COMPLETELY SEDENTARY AND NOW YOU'RE DECIDING TO HIT THE GYM. IF YOU DECIDE TO GO ON A PROLONGED FAST AND YOU'RE OVERWEIGHT, YOU WILL STILL GAIN MUSCLE. THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO MORE ADVANCED LIFTERS, THEY WILL LOSE STRENGTH ON A PROLONGED FAST.
>I want to lose it fast
YOU CAN FAST FOR 30 DAYS ON SNAKE JUICE + WORKOUT + THROW IN SOME DRY DAYS. THIS IS SOME HARDCORE SHIT THOUGH, SO GOOD LUCK.

THAT'S GOOD WORK, IT GETS HARDER THE LEANER YOU GET. HOW TALL ARE YOU?

GOOD JOB, FASTING GOES HAND IN HAND WITH SELF-DEVELOPMENT. NOW DELETE THAT PICTURE OFF YOUR COMPUTER.

i'm only doing a 24h dry fast next time, this isn't fucking hard, it just sucks

i've gained a whole new appreciation for water atleast

Longest i've done was 240 hours. Pretty much the same as a 5 or 7 day fast. Averaged about 1lb fat lost per day, after having subtracted initial glycogen & water weight losses from going into a ketogenic state. With longer fasts electrolyte supplementation (like snake juice) is essential.

Oh shit I'm sorry. I completed worded everything wrong. I am focusing on weight first. It's just that I want to workout and maybe burn a little more since my body would be using fat as my energy. I wont make huge gains this year, but I can at least look like I lift just a tiny bit

Where were you when based snek man chaged 20$ for a literal identical to VOSS bottle (retail $4.29 and it comes with water) and $39.99 for an incomplete and incorrect snake juice powder?

>Meme fasts

Wtf just like don't eat haha

I've done 5 day snake + 2 day dry
which is >7 day snake juice fast

>THIS DOES NOT APPLY TO MORE ADVANCED LIFTERS, THEY WILL LOSE STRENGTH ON A PROLONGED FAST.

>tfw did 120kg bench for reps before going into fasting

will be interesting to see where my lifts are at when i'm 20lbs lighter

>it's not even 1 liter
fuck this greedy jew

Just uninformed

GOOD LUCK, FASTING WILL GET YOU THERE FOR SURE. IF YOU HAVEN'T STARTED ALREADY, HIT THE GYM.

WHAT'S STOPPING YOU FROM FASTING AGAIN?

YOU DON'T HAVE EPSOM SALTS? OH, AND I'VE ONLY SHIT LIKE 4 TIMES THIS YEAR. DON'T BE TOO WORRIED UNLESS YOU FEEL THAT BALL OF SHIT IN YOUR ASSHOLE AND IT CAN'T COME OUT. MAKE SURE TO HYDRATE AFTER YOU EMPTY YOUR GUT.

36+ HOURS FOR ME.

WHAT'S WITH THAT QUALITY SCREENSHOT?

Even the giant 4/8 lb bags are food grade. They say 100% magnesium sulfate USP. USP = United States Pharmacopia and means that the material is pure enough for food, drug, medicinal, or laboratory use. Just buy the cheap giant bag and you'll be good to go.

>240 hours
>pretty much the same as a 5 or 7 day fast
>1 day is 24 hours

Is it just me or does fasting kill my sex drive? I don't even feel like masturbating

Luckily for me I am completely sedentary. Never picked up weights in my life unless it was to help someone move furniture which was really rare. 70ibs is obviously very overweight.

>snake juice+workouts+dry days for 30 days.

Holy shit. I don't think I want it that fast lol maybe 2 months or 3

Cole is a massive autist retard, but he's said in every freaking video that this product is massively overpriced and only for fat lazy bastards who can't be arsed to go to the grocery store and mix their own fucking snake juice

I can and do.

first time fasting here.
haven't eaten nor drink anything for 24h, not even water. i feel nothing really. I didn't get all snakejuice ingredients unfortunately so how should i proceed?
i plan on going without nothing but water for two more days but i dunno

>3h40min until i can drink water again
what a fucking retarded idiotic imbecile cretin came up with a diet liek this?
or is this a joke, I don¨t really know since people seem to think eating raw (and even bad) meat is a good idea

are you dumb or trolling?

My experience, on my longest (10 day) fast, was very similar to my experiences on my 5 and 7 day fasts. There wasn't anything different, more difficult, or odd about the extra time.

don't continue without salts lad

Thanks and I've been going to the gym for a while.

get all your snake juice shit, start with a 48h dry fast, then snake juice for another 8 days (day 2-3 are the worst), that's a 10 day total, do a refeed, then either rinse and repeat or do a longer fast if you feel like it

if you have 2-3 months you should be fine as long as you don't half ass it

you can do 72 hours without snake juice

Am I doing this right
soon (tm)

I'M NOT SURE HOW LONG IT TOOK HIM TO REGAIN HIS STRENGTH AFTER HIS 15 DAY FAST, BUT HE REGAINED IT NONETHELESS.

READING YOUR PREVIOUS POST AND THIS RESPONSE MADE ME REALIZE I'VE BEEN POISONED TOO MUCH BY Jow Forums CULTURE. HOPE YOU LEARN SOMETHING ABOUT MAGNESIUM, THOUGH.

IT DOES INITIALLY, THEN IT GOES BACK UP ONCE IT NORMALIZES YOUR TESTOSTERONE LEVELS. I GET MORNING WOOD AFTER DAY 2, BUT THE BORAX COULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT.

ALRIGHT, SO IF WEIGHT (THE NUMBER ON THE SCALE) IS OF MORE IMPORTANCE RIGHT NOW, GAINING MUSCLE WILL NOT BE WHAT YOU WANT, SINCE LEAN MUSCLE MASS ATTRIBUTES TO INCREASED WEIGHT. I DON'T RECOMMEND *NOT* GOING TO THE GYM, BUT IF YOU NEED TO MAKE WEIGHT FOR SOMETHING LIKE A JOB/MILITARY/SPORT, THEN JUST DO SNAKE JUICE FASTS CONSECUTIVELY FOR A LONG AS YOU CAN.

YOU CAN CONTINUE TO DRY FAST. IF THIS IS YOUR FIRST TIME, DO A 3 DAY DRY FAST AND JUDGE FROM THERE. GET THE SNAKE JUICE INGREDIENTS FROM AMAZON IF YOU CAN, AND ONLY GET THE PACKETS IF YOU'RE A FAT LAZY PIG.

No I don't honestly. No problems in that department.

I am 5'10, worked out for a couple of years but was pretty sedentary last couple of months.

Are you Cole? the all caps is a bit too much

I respect most of what you've wrote in this thread tho

i could drink water now if i wanted, i entered ketosis ages ago, but i set my goal at first dry fast for 48 hours so that's what i'm doing

setting goals and breaking mental barriers is a good habit (as long as you don't hurt yourself in the process)

ah i get it now, yeah i'm just dumb

Someone definitely pissed me the fuck off right now. I was JUST about to finish a 4 day fast, I had a sandwich in my hand ready to be eaten, just one of many and my fucking idiot cousin tells me "oh, can't go one more day? Told you fasting would hurt you. you'll never lose weight that way" while he is chomping on fucking cheeto puffs.

So fuck that fat bitch. I'm gonna show him true fuckin results. 30 days fasting starts NOW. I am already on day 4. Dipshit wants to fuckin talk shit when he doesn't have a clue what anything is, I'll show him that I will fast for 30 days and lose a lot of weight.

HE MEANS YOU SHOULD SAY YOU DID A 10 DAY FAST.

THIS IS A GOOD ROUTINE.

YOU GOT YOUR SODIUM CHLORIDE?

NO.
I'VE BEEN TYPING IN ALL CAPS FOR OVER A DECADE.

GREAT ADVICE THAT PEOPLE SHOULD FOLLOW, ESPECIALLY WITH FASTING.

if you make it you'll have to thank your cousin :)

>(as long as you don't hurt yourself in the process)
I don't think lack of hydration is something that could be called safe

skellingtons do tend to be thin

Alright boys, I ate garbage today because I'm a piece of shit but I know I can manage 7 days fasting in a row.
Last meal approx 3pm which means I can eat again at lunchtime on the 21st.

when you put it like that it sounds so tough to spend 1/4 of a mnth without eating

crossing the street isn't safe either, but it's relatively safe, so is dry fasting for 48 hours

you could look into the science if you're interested, i'm more of a learner than a teacher, i read the science until i'm satisfied, but i'm not able to preach it

YOU PUT THE FUCKING SANDWICH DOWN, GOOD JOB. KEEP GOING AND LET THAT ANGER MOTIVATE YOU EVERYDAY.

I SEE YOU'VE NEVER DONE A DRY FAST BEFORE.

GOOD LUCK. PUSH AS HARD AS YOU CAN AND STOP CAVING IN TO GARBAGE FOR FOOD.

round 2... 3 day dry fast this time instead of 2

Too much fiber gives me diarrhea. I was eating spinach for potassium before I knew of no salt and the couple times I had a lot of spinach it would happen immediately. Pretty much eating meat & dairy exclusively now which has been a lot better for me. If you over do snake juice that will give you diarrhea too.

24 hours in. almost fell asleep. i wanna eat pretty bad.

i don't know what is is about dry fasting, nearing my 48h i'm not particularly thirsty or hungry, i'm not even thinking about food, but fuck man, i'm craving dat water nonetheless

GO TO SLEEP. LISTEN TO YOUR BODY.

I THINK THE THIRST OVERRIDES YOUR GUT'S MESSAGES FOR HUNGER.

>i wanna eat pretty bad

well you don't have to, so don't do it, atleast set a goal for your first fast and strive to reach it, whether it's a weight goal or a time goal

fuck, that means that when i break my dry fast at 48 and my thirst is satiated, the hunger pangs will strike with force for day 3

cool, bring it on body, no food for you.

IT COULD POSSIBLY, YEA. I HAVEN'T HAD THIS EXPERIENCE YET, MAYBE I'LL LOOK FOR IT WHEN I'M FINISHED WITH THIS DRY FAST. WOULD BE INTERESTING TO SEE IT HAPPEN, LIKE THE BACTERIA IN YOUR GUT SAYING, 'OK, IT'S FUCKING TIME FOR FOOD NOW YOU SICK FUCK.'

Well amphetamines will help lol

and wreck your long term health

i was gonna aim for 3 but i think i will do 2 full and then 3rd morning eat

Do you drink snake juice in the gym or regular water when fasting?

If I'm adding dry days to my prolonged fast should I do no physical activity on dry days?

Also what is up with that extreme dry fast? Can't wash your hands? Thats just silly right?

why would you need those salts and other BS did ancient humans had those suplements for the days they didn't hunt?
