Re: Dry Fasting ???Question???

Good morning Archus!
Let's see it's been 14 days since I started my first round of fasting. I officially completed 9 full days and technically I was officially off Water Fast 4 days. Strangely it somehow felt a lot longer than that. Day 10-12 I water fasted all day and had something other than water at night. Yesterday I had a normal day of feeding as I attended a whole day celebration for my mother's birthday.

Today is Day 1 of round 2. After feeding yesterday I kept in mind I was starting the Water Fast today but I also wanted to incorporate dry fasting. So as of 11pm last night had my last sip of water. I woke up feeling not so great. I felt discomforts of inflammation/swelling (Chinese food yesterday)and Filipino desserts (cake/ice cream). Also phlegmy (if that is a word). I did lots of hiking outdoors yesterday so that might be allergies too. I read about dry fasting and how effective it was with inflammation and edema so I was interested to see how it may help my body. One thing though, I am not interested in hard dry fast (yet). I'm giving myself some room to test the waters. I did have a coffee enema this morning. I know my body will absorb water that way. I'm okay with that since that is my routine when I get off food. It's been 12 hours since I had any water. Hoping to go at least 16 hours this first try.

Archus you aren't fasting right now? If you aren't, When do you plan to start?

I'd be very interested in your DF journey. I'll be keeping a watchful eye. Hopefully you start when I'm still on.
