I had a full blood work done after I actually told my doctor what I was doing, everything was pretty much perfect, there were a few things outside the range but she wasn't concerned about it

Can someone give me like the 10 bullet point list in how to prep for this and what goals to set?
step 1: 3-4 days before starting cut all carbs, this will truly help the water diet

step 2: start water diet , days 1-3 try really hard to just drink water and black coffee (after day 3 it surprinsingly gets easier)

step 3: by day 4 you should not be hungry, just weak (this is why you do this during a vacation week or a slow week) , at that point it becomes a battle to not grab a bite when your family is eating and stuff , we would make bone broth for nights when we would feel weak and almost break the water diet, 1 small serving can get u to the next day

GSP does it for exactly 4 days , you will see benefits as long as you do at least 3-4 days

GSP is a 5 day! This has been hashed out already broseph.

Lol, I still chuckle over the arguments if a GSP was a 3 or 5 day.

One data point that blew my mind was I was eating more in 2 days then I was when I had gone strict keto 6 years previously and the weight loss was the exact same. During keto I felt like I was starving eating 1800 calories a day while working out. While fasting I was eating well above that within a 2 day timeframe and never felt like I was starving.

wow dude
congrats on the discipline

I’m on day 2 of a 72 hr fast, if anyone would like to join. Tomorrow (Tue) at 8pm ET will be 72 hours. Water, Powerade, and black coffee is all I’m having.

I heard you can drink beer while on a fast since it is mostly water. Not liquor, too much other stuff, but beer...

I think that is what pushed Dr Metafung over the edge, plus Sagiv arguing if broth and spinach for electrolytes was really a fast. Loved that thread.
Nah, the michelob thing was and the very beginning of the thread...it was just an ongoing joke. Me and Mata were good.
