Not exactly fasting,but in my younger speed freak days I would not eat for 4-5 days at a time.

Doesn’t that mess with your metabolism?
SW-User
No, the only fast I usually do is skipping breakfast. More than that, no. I don't see the sense of it. Rather have balanced meals.

I can't do a fast. I don't know why but I get fairly sick when I've tried...

What is your goal to save money🤔
summersong · F
At the height of my anorexia I would alternate 4-5 days without eating and then have a day with one meal. I can’t fast anymore because it triggers old patterns.

I also fainted a lot and got to the point where I had no nutrients in my body so you know. Be careful with it. Your body needs some food to function
Coppercoil · M
@summersong wow I am so glad you shared. I am not sure I was aware of the severity of it. I'm glad you beat it and are doing ok noe. What do you remember about the experience?
marsbar · F
Are you fasting like that on purpose?
this morning. toughest 15 minutes of my life
Coppercoil · M
@saragoodtimes omg.. how did you manage?
@Coppercoil read my comment
Viper · M
Nothing like that... but on Sundays I normally eat one large meal now.

And I have gone 36 hours with just chicken broth, spices, water and green tea.
Coppercoil · M
@Viper that actually sounds healthy.. maybe I'll switch to that method.
Viper · M
@Coppercoil what are you trying to do?

Wow 4 days!?
Doomflower · 36-40, M
@Coppercoil that sounds awesome. It is hard to function like that I bet.
Coppercoil · M
@Doomflower yeah.. started on the weekend so the worst of the hunger would be over by Monday. Really low energy though.. mind is ok.. just slow. But calm.
Doomflower · 36-40, M
@Coppercoil I like when being light on calories causes my heart rate to slow down.
Peaceful · F
I've fasted on and off for years.

How are you feeling and why are you doing it?
Coppercoil · M
@Peaceful I am not sure just tired of everything if that makes sense.
Peaceful · F
@Coppercoil I'm sorry my friend. I'm with you on that. If you wanna talk, you know I'm here for you.

When I was at my worst. Meaning when I was using meth and cocaine heavily. I would sometimes go for almost a week without eating.


Now that I've escaped from that, I make a point of eating regularly and well.
Coppercoil · M
@SW-User I have a past of some alcohol and drug abuse. If you ever need support I'm here. Don't hesitate I won't judge.
SW-User
I haven’t fast in years but feel like I should do another one
Coppercoil · M
@SW-User first two days are terrible then the body kicks into ketosis and you feel weak but ok.
SW-User
Yeah the last time I did it I fasted for I believe 6 days and the first two or three were the only bad ones @Coppercoil
Four and a half days couple of weeks back. I had lots of water though.
Coppercoil · M
@DrScissorhands that is just terrible. I'm such a bad friend. I would have stayed there and nursed you you know.
No no no. You’re actually pretty great. Why are you fasting though? @Coppercoil
Coppercoil · M
@DrScissorhands I need a perspective shift so I need to open up to some kind of change.
I usually fast only twice a year. I can’t stay without fruits or water even during this time coz I’m anemic.
Coppercoil · M
@Vivaci ahh.. fruit us wonderful. Candy of the God's.
@Coppercoil yup! I love seasonal fruits.

Why are you fasting though? 🤔
Nanori · F
Yeah when we were poor I got only one meal a day which was a bit of rice with some ketchup if I was lucky
Nanori · F
@Coppercoil :/ wtf
Coppercoil · M
@Nanori 🥺
SinlessOnslaught · 26-30, M

Intermittent for a few days. Its been a long time since a really real one.
Coppercoil · M
@stound I've been intermittent fasting for years to lose weight then my body one day stopped losing weight.. it just stopped.
