My weight change is 39.5 pounds in 57 days. Today is day 57 of the 90 day water fast. Today’s weight change is a 2.6 pound gain. We started at 228 pounds and now we are at 189.1 pounds.

How do I feel? I feel good. I feel fine. Normal.

First of all, happy Saturday to everybody. It is a great day. And if you are like me, on my weekends I take advantage of it because I sleep in. Sleeping in is important.

So if you are currently fasting, or if you are thinking about fasting, or in the future when you do fast, what you want to do is try to get as much sleep as you can. Your body burns up more fat when you are sleeping than when you are up. That is just the way it works.

So I am reading some of the responses from my DMs. They sort of mentioned that I did this kind of haphazardly. Like there was not that much thought process put into this, or things like that.

Not true. What I did is I took the last 15 years of experience of fasting. And there is no recipe for it. What works for one may not work for another. It is done by trial and error basically.

So you have to see what is going to work for you. The only way to do that is to actually try it. You have to take the risk. You have to try it and see what works for you. It is kind of the way it works.

My suggestion is take the risk. Try it for yourself. See what works and see what does not work. That is the only way you are really going to know. So if you do not take the risk, where are you going to be? Exactly.

That being said, I am going to let you guys go. Have a happy Saturday. Till next time. Cheers.
