nikka fasted for 22 hours today... Felt like a champ. Honestly coulda gone longer, but didn't wanna wake up in the middle of the night wanting to hulk smash my refrigerator.

Gotta love my wife; I mentioned to her today after I came back from the gym that I hadn't eaten since last night, and she immediately got all worried, like I was gonna pass out or something. I need to show her the studies or something so she'll be put at ease.

I got a physical coming up in October, I already know that I won't be telling my doctor that I'm fasting for 16-20 hours a day. I'll just let him think that I'm following the "six small meals a day" crap he tried to push on me at first. :pacspit:

LOL probably...

I'm gonna go for another 20 hours today. Yesterday I did chest and tris on an empty stomach, came home, then took my son to go play basketball. I think going on a 20+ hour fast is my sweet spot. Plus it saves a nikka money on lunch during the day. Straight water and diet soda.

Mine has. Not even thinking about food right now. Going on 16 hours right now, and probably won't eat until 7 or so tonight. And even then that's only because I'm taking my son to the gym, and that's my second workout of the day. Already did some deads and other back/biceps exercises, so I know that another workout on an empty stomach will probably leave me :deadrose:

Tomorrow I'm pretty sure I'm gonna go close to 24 hours between eating. I feel sorry for my refrigerator when I get home tomorrow....:takedat:

Made it to 23 hours tonight.... :obama:

I had planned on eating around 7 or so, which would have put me at 19 hours fasted. I was gonna make myself a four egg scramble, but I was like :manny: at the thought of eating. So I went to the gym with my son at 9, did some more back and bis, came home, and was still like :manny: about eating. But I didn't wanna go past 24 hours, so I'm sitting here now eating. Gonna do another 23 hours tomorrow.

Just got to 22.5 hours tonight. I think I've found my sweet spot, gotta stay around 20 hours or so on a regular basis. Tonight when I got home I was feeling real tired and sleepy, part of which I attributed to the fact that I went swimming earlier. Honestly, the only thing I wanted to do was :snooze:, not eat, but I didn't wanna risk my sugar crashing or something in the middle of the night.
