It's the right place and the right time for and extended fast. The 1st 7 days of the September, I averaged 82.70 net carbs (3 of the days under 35 net carbs). The last 7 days (9/5 - 9/11) , I averaged 50.17 net carbs (5 of the days under 35 net carbs). Both Sunday and Monday of this week, I didn't have any processed carbs / sugar cravings and I am surrounded by plenty of them in the office and at home.
My prior extended fasts, I struggled a bit within the 1st 24 - 48 hrs because the fasts were preceeded by high carb days. This time, my blood sugars appear to be stable (which explains the lack of evil cravings) and re-listening to The Complete guide to Fasting by Dr. Jason Fung and Jimmy Moore has got my head in the game and I am in it to win it.
Off I go.... (actually, I am already 12 hrs and 24 min into this Extended Fast)

If I could bottle up your resolve and sell it... I'd make a fortune! Props, brother, props!

This guy is on fire. I just walked 3.721 miles in 58:49 minutes in a white buttoned down shirt and khakis while Jimmy Moore schooled me on the his own fasting protocols. Afterwards, I had to stand for 5 minutes near giant floor vents blasting AC upwards into the lobby of my building before heading upstairs to my desk. No excuses, this FAT must go!!!!

Tomorrow scale number should be my lowest ever on FS as long as I can keep my Pie Hole shut tonight!!!!

@trishawtf to rest and restore my overworked pancreas and to stave off T2D.

Go get 'em, Ches! Sounds like just about the perfect set-up. Under 20 carbs would do it even beter. ;) You got this!

Thanks minitata, Trucker Larry, From371to184, kes & amanda. So far so good for 19 hrs, 26 minutes and 51 seconds in. Commuting process starting soon so no more liquids until around 6:30 or close to home.

Way to go! I always find it interesting to notice things about how my body responds to things now. Good for you to take notice of this kind of stuff as well!
