This marks the longest I've fasted thus far. I'm not sure if it's mind over matter or proper preparation or 'practice' but so far I feel fine. No shakes or jitters, no fatigue. Honestly I'm not even really hungry.
Exercise-wise: Sun was out so I made use of that and was able to walk 5 miles today (no flooding or tree maintenance to get in the way this time~). This is pretty normal for me, and I was happy to get the extra steps I didn't get yesterday. Tomorrow I plan on doing some light strength training as well, and some yoga.
Overall I feel good. Drinking lots of water, no lightheadedness to speak of, and hunger pangs are quickly passed. Stomach will rumble but nothing debilitating or overly distracting.
I've downloaded an app called Zero that will countdown a fast (I started mine at hour 41, so it's not as "impressive" as it would be if I'd started at the beginning, but c'est la vie). I'm interested in checking out some others as well, see which ones encourage and support, as well as maybe make it a bit more interesting/rewarding. Maybe someday I'll figure out how to make my own~
