Alrite, I'm going to try a 3 day water only fast this weekend. Eat dinner Thursday, make it though work on Friday on an empty stomach, then go till Sunday dinner with only water.
Good luck - you will feel incredible when you complete it and have your first bite of Watermelon.
Here are some tips to consider:
Don't start your fast on fri while you are working. The first day is the most important and usually the most difficult. Have a good lunch on friday -- but for dinner try to just have some fruits or veggies only and maybe a litre of water or just some green tea.
Start the fast on Sat. Stay in -- rest, rest, rest. Maybe read a book. Refrain form arduous activity -- but you can go out for a light walk and get some good air. Sunday do the same. Then see how you feel on Monday. If you can take the day off work. If you have to work - at least you have done your two days which is also a good start. The third day of fast is the usually the most difficult -- then it gets a lot easier after that.
Don't break the fast at dinner, break it at breakfast. Go to sleep early. Once you are asleep, you have no hunger pains.
Breaking the fast correctly is more important than doing the fast itself. Break it by first having warm lemon water with a bit of salt. Use fresh lemon.
Then try to drink a litre of water slowly.
Then eat water rich fruits only. Best is water melon. .
Then for lunch make your own soup will a lot of water liquid and fresh vegetables.
Ease into normal eating.
