I am just coming off my 1st 36-hour fast. I have been reading up on fasting protocols and yesterday I felt like giving it a whirl. My last meal was Sunday evening, then I had some snacks later before bedtime. I started yesterday morning with just black coffee and then water the rest of the day. I drank some homemade bone broth yesterday evening at the 24-hour mark. Technically drinking bone broth doesn’t break a fast, it extends it.

I didn’t know how I was going to feel doing a 24-hour fast. I felt really good all day! I stayed busy cleaning my house and doing laundry, then did a dance practice for my exercise. I didn’t feel hungry. I was even able to watch Guy Fieri’s show without getting any hunger pangs. Lol. I did have a little trouble getting to sleep….didn’t feel sleepy so I stayed up way too late crafting. 😁 I felt good enough to go the 36 hours.

So here I am this morning breaking my fast, with my parents, at First Watch. Starting with some of their Kale Tonic drink. Then I ordered an omelet with a lot of veggies. Going to go slowly and not eat very much, just ease back into my calories for the day. #intermittentfasting #gettingbacktoketo
