Yeah, but fasting is shorting intent.

.

Fasting isn't too awful.  It does sap the will though.  It seems strange that it doesn't hurt, day fasting really must be good prep for this.  I learned to eat through mid-day rather than in the evening, which truly helped activity.  But what to do... oh right, ketone crystals, or whatever they are.  They are supposed to both jumpstart ketosis and provide fasting energy.  It is slightly easier in warmer (though not excessively hot either) weather.  Both extremes of temp tax the body even without function.  Something else with fasting?  My normal high resistance to the cold is reduced.  It was 15 degrees out the other day and that seemed chill to me.  Though perhaps that is age too, or some combo?  It worried me, still does a bit.

Work has been very light and slow.  The body is part of it, I would say 70%, but lack of focus plays a large minority part.  No complaints, just notes for myself and any other poor fool who is thinking of going this way.  I don't think it's a bad way, mind you... just that most of us are fools, and poor too... one way or another.  :p  Now, my problems will differ.  I would guess that lethargy might exist for all who try this.  Most of you don't have a heart at replacement values as a 600 pound ape riding you to your grave on top of fasting.  It really isn't all that bad, if the chill is creeping in and I'm not warming so well, which is a triple hammering.  Doable though.

I am hoping to hit the curtains, what remain, today.  The neighbor may be helping me get the air compressor.  I have just a few dishes remaining.  A shower... planned yesterday but exhaustion punched me right in the nose so that dishes were never even finished.  As well, a few boxes from the computer room to the upstairs and more fussing in there and the kitchen.  I did some things yesterday, just not as much as hoped, not fast, bleh.  I'll let you know if the keto gunk helps.  Oh I have started the vitamin b5, it is also supposed to help with lethargy while fasting.

Yeah.  I am hoping for a longer fast fairly often.  More like a week between them, if I keep them shorter, a couple of weeks if I make them longer.  I suspect longer fasting would be more efficient but will need much more careful monitoring.  If fasting goes well, and things look good Sunday, I might add a few more days on.  The extra days would be in Christmas celebration.  I'll know soon.  Too bad I haven't dropped weight, but to lose weight you have to burn and reduce intake, if as mentioned weight loss isn't an actual goal just a potential side effect.  At this point, stage, in life it really doesn't matter.  Later.
