DAY 35 / 90

My weight change is 37.7 pounds in 35 days. Today is day 35 of the 90 day water fast and my weight change today is 0.4 pounds. We started at 228 pounds and now I am at 190.9 pounds.

How do I feel? I feel good. I feel fine. No issues here.

However, while I still continue to lose weight, my ketone strips are not getting any kind of sign of ketones in my body. So we are just going to keep drinking water. We are going to stay on course. I am confident it will start reading something. Today it was almost pinkish. Maybe it was just me hoping that it would be. We will see.

People are asking me about the metallic taste in my mouth. I am starting to get that back. It is a pretty strong taste. How did I get it out of there? I do three things when I brush my teeth in the morning and at night.

One, I use regular toothpaste. Full disclosure, I have an electric toothbrush.

The second thing I do is I take a little bit of baking soda, make a little paste with it with some water, scoop it up onto my toothbrush and use that. That is like the second layer of toothbrushing for my teeth.

The last thing I do is I use a rinse.

So between the three of them it clears out the taste of my mouth for the whole day and for the whole night. It is kind of strong. You may want to do that so you can get that taste out of your mouth. The pH level in your mouth changes and I think that is what helps a little bit when you use the baking soda.

That being said, not only is it Friday today but it is also the beginning of the Labor Day weekend. So I wish you guys a happy Labor Day weekend. I am going to let you guys go. Have a good day. Cheers.
