I lost 24.9 pounds in 16 days. Today is day 16 of the 90 day water fast and I lost another 0.6 pounds. We started at 228 pounds and now we are down to 203.7. I feel good. I feel great.

Quick apology for yesterday’s recording, my numbers were slightly blurred. The postings of the numbers are correct and today’s recording is correct.

I want to touch on two things, on why I am doing this. First is the fat burning. You can tell I am shrinking and shrinking. I am losing the fat, which is good for my body, because I need to lose the fat anyway.

The other, probably the more important reason, is autophagy. Autophagy is the self cleaning mechanism that everybody has built inside them, it helps clean and recycle their cells. So your cells are at work. My cells are at work. My liver cells are cleaning themselves out, making them stronger. My skin cells, my kidney cells, even my brain cells are cleaning themselves out. That is the main reason why I am doing this.

That being said, I am gonna let you guys go. Enjoy the rest of your weekend. Cheers.
