I know. but it's the second time i've done it. First one was because of other issues. Actually I'm 3 years behind, because I also switched degree once. I feel like a mess.
I'll make updates every 5 days, because i need some motivation and logging it might help.
1st day was annoying but fine
2nd 3rd days were pure torture i was bound to the bed and could not get up
on 4th day things started getting better
5 day is today and i feel okay-ish, i've noticed that my piss started smelling way worse than it should, maybe a sign of something good.
For electrolites i take himalayan salt, potassium chloride, and a bit of magnesium citrate. On 2nd day i also took some calcium but then realised those pills were sweetened with sorbitol, probably not that big of a deal, but calcium during fasting isn't that important anyway from what i've heard so I'll pass.
I also take 30 min baths with dead sea salt. Because swimming in the sea is apparently a good thing to do and I don't have a sea nearby.
I wonder how long I can last. During my last attempt anything longer than 7 days seemed impossible because I had major issues speaking on day 5. Now It's way better. If it doesn't get worse I think i can endure 20 days and that's my goal as for now. I don't know if pushing it to 30 is something I can/want to do, but i'll see how I feels. Helen wrote somewhere that receptors rebuild in days 40-50. If that's true I'd love to reach that goal (because I deluded myself into thinking that would cure me), but it might be completely out of my range given my weight and lack of experience.
Why does my mouth feel dry all the time btw? Not enough water? Not enough salt?
