Day 23 and I'm craving...
...a bowel movement.
I feel it getting closer every day; the gurgling and such has become incessant. There has been gas and I feel the obvious sensations of movement. It is times like these that I ponder an enema experiment, but I probably never will simply because the research shows downsides, and this makes it unappealing to me.
I would love some ”intestinal relief” right now though. It's not horrible, just not pleasant.
I have been a lazy POS the past 60 hours. Little energy, little motivation, much sleep...very much feeling wiped out. Standing up is requiring even more acute attention as the vision blackouts have become very strong (while, I have been able to avoid any fainting episode so far).
My previous longest fast was 21 days, so I have reached new territory. The goal has been 'completion' and I have no immediate plans to break the fast as of yet. It it's interesting to note that I began this fast nearly the same weight as I began my 21 day fast, yet it is dramatically clear to me that I have lost less fat up to this point (2 days longer) than I did on that first long fast. Why?
