Im about to try a 72 hour fast. Ive got a sugar addiction, have to have ice cream or chocolate milk or somerhing after i eat. Im 46, 6'1". I spent years at 265lbs. Got aerious about dieting and dropped to 180 about 4 years ago. That was roo skinny, i got back up to 190 which is about perfect for me. The last year my weight has gone up and yo yo'd between 205-212lbs. Almost all of that in belly and man boobs. Ill tell my self at night and dueing the day im done with desserts and sugar, but after i eat my brain messes up and i have to eat it. Of course i also love fast food. Ive got stomach troubles (gastroparesis), arthritis in both hands, 3 level spinal fusion, HBP and couple of issues.

Ive never fasted before. The fast im wanting to do is 1 day just water, 2 days bone broth. Ive read up on fasting, im hoping it will help reduce inflammation, help with sugar cravings, and kind of do a digestive reset. Im really not sure how it will go but im gonna try it out anyways.

Good Luck, Keep us updated daily if you could.

Supposed to be a great way to kick start weight loss

Good luck!

Tell us how you are doing.

Good luck to you. Throw away the temptations so you don't revert back when you're done.

Day 1 wasnt too bad. Didnt really start to get hungry until around 7pm. Havent had anything but water aince 10pm last night. I was dumb and didnt buy my bone broth in advance, so had to make a trip to walmart, which is why i got hungry being arwound all the food.

Me too. I've been on the "shot" for a year and I still crave sugar and have not been able to stop using it completely. There is just NO substitute for it. I use raw sugar in my coffee, 2 cups of coffee a day and a teaspoon on my oatmeal. The raw sugar is not really better than white cane sugar, but I like the brown sugar flavor.
Good luck, sugar is a poison for sure.
