I am now already five days past my previous longest fast of twelve days, and at the moment I can’t see any reason that I won’t be able to complete the remaining eleven days. I have said previously that weight loss was not my main reason for this fast, but I am totally surprised at the amount of weight I have lost so far, 2st 2lbs in seventeen days, and that amount of weight you really feel the difference. The reason for fasting was to try and see if autophagy would repair the nerve damage and hip problems in my left leg. When I started this fast I could only lift my leg a couple of inches, now I can lift it about twelve inches and relatively pain free, and that’s a first for around three years. So what else has happened, well my skin has improved and my blood pressure is now quite stable at 120/80 and considering where it used to be is great. It’s not all been plain sailing though, day’s 13, 14, and 15 I didn’t feel that good, having headaches and feeling rather lethargic, but it turned out I just needed to increase my water intake, and I am now feeling pretty good. I have been doing a half hour upper body workout every other day, but I am now increasing that to every day and possibly increasing it to forty-five minutes. For the next entry I shall be giving some thought to re-feeding as that time will be getting close, until then I wish you all the very best of health.
