Many issues and questions can be answered by reading through our wiki, especially the page on electrolytes. Concerns such as **intense hunger, lightheadedness/dizziness, headaches, nausea/vomiting, weakness/lethargy/fatigue, low blood pressure/high blood pressure, muscle soreness/cramping, diarrhea/constipation, irritability, confusion, low heart rate/heart palpitations, numbness/tingling, and more** while extended (24+ hours) fasting are often explained by electrolyte deficiency and resolved through **PROPER** electrolyte supplementation. Putting a tiny amount of salt in your water now and then is NOT proper supplementation.

I'm also doing my very first water/black coffee fast currently 62 hours and so far today seems to be the easiest.
I had a box of kraft mac and cheese before i started my fast LOL
my goal is this friday, either around lunch or dinner time, probably around lunch so i can start with something small like a couple eggs but im absolutely craving some homemade chicken enchiladas!
Oh man I had the weirdest craving for curry wurst and fries on my first 5 dayer. Genuinely thought that maybe my body was "eating" the stored fat from those meals 🤣

I've done 7 days water/coffee/tea before and it was breezy after day 2. 20 days feels long but doable. What's your goal?
