- I ingested nothing except for water & electrolyte salts for 14 days (aka a "14 day water fast")... and I survived! Here's how and why that all works.

I'd save soooo much money for 2 weeks of no groceries, eating out or drinks.
Haha, idk if it's just me, but because i don't have anything else to do, i end up window shopping a lot...
Right!
I am Saving money eating once a day! That was not my intention but I also have realised how much money I am not spending with food. That’s amazing! Feeling soo good , lost weight and save money. Perfect!
Omg, SOOO true !! Also, you significantly lessen your carbon footprint. No fast food plastic cups (coffee) containers (take-out), metal cans, assorted food garbage, etc that we accumulate & dispose of daily.
Gotta love it! It changed my life just doing 2MAD, OMAD, 72hr and at at least 18hr daily fast...soooo much more money!
Wow...great job. I did it for 7 days last year. Takes a lot of willpower for sure. Especially when I had to cook and feed everyone else 😅 but I did it.
how much weight did you lose?
@@alexperkins8433 during those days probably around 4 kgs... But this kind of fasting is more of a body cleansing exercise. I was also doing it more as a test of willpower rather than just weight loss. Such fasting is beneficial for overall health.
@@drikali y - thats what i've heard. i'm good. lol i eat healthy & exercise daily - just curious. so many pple are doing it - but at longer and longer intervals.......would you do it again? do you think you obtained a benefit from it (other than the victory of doing it - not to downplay that - i dont think i could lol)
@@alexperkins8433 yes I would do it again definitely. Right now I just do IF. I surely have benefitted from the fast.. It detoxes and brings clarity of mind. I am from India and in our culture fasting is a part of life actually. It's always tied up with religious occassions but the practical benefits are undeniable. I felt lighter and happier after doing it. Also for many days I didn't feel like eating much so all the better for losing the extra flab.. Lol
@@drikali very cool! y - all my muslim .....and bahai friends do it regularly (when i lived in indonesia the kids would come to my back door asking for food during Ramadan lol).....i dont think i have ever, for one second, in my life felt like not eating :) well good on you - i might consider it......(narrator: he'll never really consider it....haha)
Very informative. Thank you. I just finished day 7 of a 10 day fast and you’ve inspired me to try for longer. Of course, I feel amazing. Tons of energy, mental clarity, and focus. I am married with two children. I never tried fasting when I was single. Watching you, I wish I had. It’s torture having to cook everyday for the fam.
The longest I’ve done is 24 days. I was going for 30, but I gave in! 😩 I lost 30 lbs though..so there’s that! 🤷🏽♀️ Starting another 30 day Monday. What I noticed is that you will save so much money, time stands still so find something to do to keep you busy, do not watch tv because all they show is food commercials and you will not sleep much! Not my 1st water fast, just the longest. While on my fast I took chlorophyll, iron, sea moss and bladderwrack tablets. Baby step it, you got this! 🙏🏾💛🥰
wow! 24 days is a marathon!
Has it caused acne please??
In the 24 days that you fasted how much weight did you lose?
I'm currently doing a 7-Day water fast to lose water weight and body fat I may go longer.
hi! im currently on ferrograd f and wondering if i can take them while fasting?
I water fasted for 14 days lost about 20lbs but after day 9 I started to feel really sick. But once you break your fast your taste buds are heightened so food tastes a million times better
Did you start feeling better after day 9?
@@bree5671 I only really felt disgusting when I tried walking around and doing stuff around the house drinking something salty or something with electrolytes helps but the main thing you have to do when you water fast is rest. And do not do it for more than 3 days if you lead an active lifestyle
@@sweetserenity6053 I’m 24hrs in and I wanna quit so bad.
@@keyasiakirkland9050 the first few days are gonna suck if you get hungry drink water and chew sugar free gum
@@sweetserenity6053 NOOOOOOOO... Please do not chew gum. It activates stomach acid, plus it is full of chemicals. Drink carbonated mineral water.
My dear sister, right now I am am fasting. The main reason for this is because I am overwhelmed but most of all, I have a chronic problem with the lack of sleep for the past 39 years. I know that if I were to be a drinker, smoker, I would have been dead a long time ago. No drugs , just pain meds, and sleep meds giving by the Department of Veterans Affairs . This is the second time in 2 weeks that I have been fasting. I am not a healthy person due to an injury in the military back in 1971. So I am 70 years old, but I feel that fasting is going to help me at least with my lack of sleep and at the same time lose weight, because I have the weight of a PIG. ( A little bit of HUMOR during these times of crisis. ) I am excepting better results. Thanks for your video.. Best ti you. Talking about headache, I live with it,,due to the lack of sleep. ..due to medical issues, urination at least a dozen times a night,,prostate removal, then try to get back to sleep. That is not normal, nor a good thing, as living a quality of life. Again I enjoy your views and the video, it gives me hope. Gracias Thanks. AMEN TO THAT.
I lost my first 22 pounds fasting 48 consecutive hours per week… (for 2 months) no bounce ….except like 2 or 3 pounds but not exercise at all… I stopped for like 4 months and trying to lose another 10 pounds… I remember watching this video and was very inspirational… love this video… this second time has been harder but keep your eyes on the goal. You guys can do it. I tried every diet and gave up til I found fasting. ❤️
Probably one of the best videos on fasting I’ve ever seen. Thank you for sharing ❤
Currently on day 13 of a 21 day fast 😁. So far I've gone from 250 to 212 as of today l.
Wowwww
I’m doing a 14 day fast tomorrow, did u just have plain water?
That's all.slt 3 lbs lost a day! Holy moly
how tall are you? wondering to see it we were at a similar bodyfat %
im 1.88m at around 250lbs too, started yesterday
Water fasting is my secret too Keep it up 🔥💯Life style changes is key to weight loss with both mental and physical health improvements. Now having lost 50kg/ 100lbs in 5 months I am starting to feel a lot more like myself. Still on my journey and happy about it.
Do you have any loose skin??
Congrats!!!
@@simply-living8523 no lose skin because water fasting prevents lose skin
@@fittaku awesome! Congratulations on your weight loss! I’m trying to lose 50lbs first then the other 50 by working out and exercising I started my fast today :)
@@simply-living8523 please don’t give up, go all the way
i’ve watched so many extended water fast vlogs and i’ve never enjoyed any video like i enjoyed yours 🥺❤️
Awesome fasting! 14 days takes a lot of dedication to the process!! Great video, love the health benefits you mention. Fasting is the best. Have a great day!
I did a 30 minute fast yesterday...Gonna try for 35 minutes tomorrow...
You're hilarious😂
Good start🙂
I’m actually dying rn 💀
LMAO
😂😂😂😂
Eating disorders are actually anabolic, that is they are actually the condition where you find yourself unable to go for 3-4 hours without food. Fasting is the cure for this.
What people think of when they speak of eating disorder is actually anorexia, and that has nothing to do with your metabolism. Anorexia is strictly a mental issue based on a skewed body image, and surprisingly enough fasting helps this too.
I fast every week for 72 hours, eating breakfast on Tuesday and not eating anything until Friday lunch/dinner, depending on how busy I am on fridays. I’ve been doing this only for the last month and without a doubt I am in the best shape of my life.
On the 23rd of this month, I will have finished 30 days. I’m going to eat again on the Fourth of July, which will be about 41 or 42 days. I’m feeling the best I’ve ever had in my life.
Hey that’s awesome!! Just please be careful when you eat again. After long fasts, it’s best to eat very small amounts of food for the first few days. I know a lot of people go all out on the Fourth of July in terms of food, so please just take it easy if that is when you decide to break your fast. You can also look up online how to break a fast and it will provide some really good info.
Happy eating day!!
How was it I want to do a 21 day fast can u describe what happened after the first 7 days
@@yahusha4life probably a lot of peeing, easier stool passing, water weight / retention (depending on ur body), mental clarity, calm mood, etc
don’t b afraid if you yo-yo instead of rapidly lose. ur body is just detoxing c:
@@kuromi3z thank you 😊
Idk why I can never fast more than 48 hours. I've been doing 48 hr fast once a week now, trying to amp it up to 72 hr. Great video, could really use some of the tips!
me too ! it’s so hard but it feels soo good when you reach your goal
Just did 72 pretty easy. I understand that going longer is the hardest part but once you do, it’s gets much easier ever day. I’ll be trying it soon.
I hear day 2/3 are the hardest to get through, Just push through it>>> if you aren't feeling sick. Make sure you are taking electrolytes. For me, I just have to amp up my sodium then I am ok.
@@KJ-nv9uz I finally did my 72 hours fast last week. I noticed that I got too lightheaded after 36 hours during my past attempts. Bcs I drank a whole lot of water, and lost all the electrolytes after 30 hrs or so. So I limit my water intake the first 2 days and drank only when I'm thirsty. It worked for me. I took my electrolytes on 2nd day. I can't believe how easy it was 😭
Gonna do it a few more times before trying a 5-days and so on.
@@nascha58 CONGRATS!
When I lived alone I would do fasts for a week at a time. I used a gallon water bottle and put pink Himalayan salt in it and was fine. I really wish I lived alone so I could fast again
Does your spouse prevent you? Try explaining the health benefits. Some people get really freaked out by fasting, like if you're gonna die in a few days.
@@robynbeach3198 it's not a spouse. It's friends and the fully believe in the whole 3 meals a day and snacks thing. They think skipping more than one meal is bad
I'm sorry you're going through this. I hope you can explain to them that you are an adult in charge of your own health and have done your research to understand your choices.
@@Truecrimeresearcher224 and dont forget coworkers!
I work in an office where there’s ALWAYS food around and potlucks.
@@Truecrimeresearcher224 they are friends, they don't control you. Don't let judgements stop you. If you want to save the hassle and judgement then perhaps hide it from them? Say you went out to eat or already ate. Say you are meeting a family or friend for lunch out or have a lunch meeting when really you are just going out for a walk or something. They can't micromanage your activities
Your new hair color is adorable! Thank you for sharing your fasting experience.
Best and most relatable fasting video I’ve seen so far. Currently on day 4. Thanks for this!
Does it work? How much weight did you lose so far?
@@Stxr_StxrliviaI’m on day 5 now and down 10 pounds.

That's nice.keep pushing you got this
Great! What’s your end goal?
What workout you do 😊😊?
I’ve been going on the treadmill every second day and running 2ks, currently down 6kg
@@elaineisxyz my goal is to lose 10kgs😅
Omg you completely started glowing. This is so inspiring
I've been doing OMAD for about a year now changed my life. Never tried anything more then a 24 hours. Need to try an extended fast....good job
How did it change your life?
I did for 20 days and I lost 12kg,
and i'm going to do the second round tomorrow,
it's vr challenging but satisfied with the results 🤗 ☺
What was your starting weight and height?
Vegetable juice fasting is incredible too. Super important....don't pig out after your fast. Broth, steamed vegetables, tea for as long as your fast was. Then, slowly introduce to heavier foods.
That is not real fasting. Your body can’t enter a true fasted state.
Thank you !! Today I’m beginning my water fasting journey and sharing with TH-cam. Wish me luck guys⭐️
Thank you for sharing this experience. I've done 5 days and thinking 14 sounds like my next step. I think the salts was probably my most useful takeaway. Thks again. 👍👍👍
Glad it was helpful!
Intermittent water fasting is very good for everyone. Unless you are insulin dependent or addicted to food.
Love your explanation. People should look at food as nutrition and energy, not a hobby or addiction.
I'm on my 6th day of my 7 day fast and I'm down 7kgs (started at 92kgs mind you) 35hrs to go 🙌
Great video, currently on day 4 of my fast.
hang in there! :)
Great job! How long are you planning to take this fast?
@@fastingforhumans3527 Goal is 5 days I finish tonight at 8pm but I’ll go to sleep at 9 and see how I feel tomorrow.
9 days on my waterfast. Going for 30 days. Im still feeding my 5yo, cooking for hubby, and shopping. Food doesnt bother me. I am T2D and anemic. During my dry fast my glucose dropped to 2.7, 2.6, 2.4 and i went the entire 20hrs dry fasting and broke it with electrolyte, then continued to my waterfast. I have 35lbs to lose and nothings going to stop me🙏🏼
I am on 4th days of 30 days. I did 10 days waterfasting 2 months ago and i am going to see if i could reach 30 days. Wish me luck yall
Update now i am at my 6th day
It’s been 11 days, update?
thank you so much for this amazing video! i am starting my water fast tomorrow and i appreciate how positive your video is. love the hair change at the end, beautiful!
I started Omad in November 2019. I only lost 5 lbs in the first 3 months. It was frustrating at first and at times very hungry. I do a 22/2 daily fast eating between 5-7 pm. Starting weight was 210 and I’m currently 180 lbs. my A1C dropped from 7.4 to 6.2. We should not be eating 3 meals a day.
I do the exact OMAD style you do. I've lost a ton of weight. My health is excellent. I'm never hungry during my cycle. Ive never has the need for a cheat day. I plan on eating like this from now on.
The same thing happened to me…I know it is upsetting but the only reason it took you time to loose weight was because your body was still releasing too much insulin….it takes some time for it to stop.
A very well balanced and interesting fasting video. Lots of colour and texture.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I did a week-long fast years ago, and then intermittent fasting... intermittently... over the years. Never considered a two week fast. Am kind of eager to try it now. I've never had to do it with kids around though, so I'm unsure how having to cook for them and then resist the food is going to go!
I can say personally, as I’m on day 6, with two kids to cook for…it’s rough at times! Especially when I make something divine and there’s plenty of extras that I normally would scarf down…
Last night I made them bacon wrapped beef balls on the smoker with cream cheese inside, and for dessert I mixed raw heavy cream from a local farm, with full fat Greek yogurt, and powdered freeze dried strawberries from our garden. Whipped it up into a whipped cream like concoction in the kitchenaid mixer, didn’t even need honey as the strawberry powder was so intensely sweet. It smelled like heaven.
Willpower is carbon fiber baby!😂😩🤓
You're big, tough Dad! Clearly as tough on the inside as the outside.
Just broke 72 hrs. All lemon water. Lost 15lbs. Gonna try and go 5-7 days. Not sure what to eat and if I should intermittently fast and which fast to go with… Trying to loose 45 lbs.
lost 15 in 3days. Started 245lbs.
Hat's off to you for the dedication 14 day is long time!
I've done a 3 day water/green te fast, my ever record, but I will do a 7 day soon, and it's gonna be without te/coffee, not going to risk anything.
I have fasted (water only) for 14 and 18 days. It’s easy but I felt tired and list a lot of muscle. I am small (89 pounds usually as my set point, and lean. I think I didn’t have enough muscle to lose to make it as esssy as it could have been: I was tired abd wobbly as I walked and carried heavy luggage; my brain functioned fine however everything was slightly slowed down - I saw a videotape of myself on day 14, nobody else could tell anything was off, but I was a bit slower reaching for objects and asking and answering questions, though I was able to. It’s a great relief not to need to think about food; if the thought occurs you just say “oh yeah? I’m not eating.” Or “I do not eat.” No need to purchase, obtain food or eat it or clean up! So much extra time found in the day! I wanted to co tinue fir 30 days and it was a hard choice but I had a client who needed me to perform tasks and was worried I would not do my absolute best for them if I went further. I’ve never gone longer than about 18 days. I prefer a modest varied diet with no forbidden foods, and lots of movement (ideally swimming fir a couple of hours a day....hard bc I don’t have my own lap pool and the pandemic had closed pools where I live). Best talk- listen to your bodies; do be aware that if you are lean you may lose a lot more muscle than you ideally would .....
PS sory for the typos. I did want to add that fasting is an ultimate luxury (which I expect this TH-camd will say but I posted a comment right away seeing so many water fasting videos; it’s easy but not necessarily great unless you want the spiritual benefits you might get, if you are very lean).
@@louisasmith9388 😂😂 it's like everything you do is at .75x speed
Done 10 day water fast, 3 day dry fast and been on keto many times. Feels the best!
35 mins before my 7th day. I too am not tired and have energy! I don't own a scale but I did lose 4 inches from my waist. Going for 21 days. Well thats the goal.
That’s inspirational --- keep going 💪🏾
@@Itgyrl909 Thank you😊. I'm going
Needd an update
@@ronaldjaffrey9410 7 more days to go. I am determined to finish this out.
@@ronaldjaffrey9410 Oh lost 2 more inches from my waist.
“My natural state is prone” love it and concur!
Fasting is easy and hard at the same time. first like 2 or 3 days is the hardest and after that it gets easier and easier
I water fasted for three days but not any longer. Everyone always tells me it’s crazy. But I felt great! I am considering a 7 day and slowly work up to longer fasts. I currently IF for 20-24 hours.
that last meal looked soooo goood
Thank you! I do enjoy cooking and eating :)
Amazing how EVERYONE here is a master of fasting 😂. YOU are the one walking the walk and they’re just yapping away, telling us how it is lol. Great job sis 🤗
I think a lot of comments are from people who have done it too.. And simply sharing their experiences. 🙂
Everyone is a master in their own experience. Some people have been doing this for years and years. Now I haven’t but they have🤣
U can keep that clarity by cutting out fried foods, sugar, noodles, spaghetti, bread, and processed foods and replace the with fresh fruits & veggies, nuts beans & lentils.
Just juice cucumber I know people will say its not a proper fast but cucumber is 97% water and contains magnisium and sodium and I did, a 35 day fast and all was good
I also recommend doing enemas whilst fasting or colonic irrigation
thank you for sharing your water fasting journey, such content helps me get through my fast more easily!
I did a 7 day fast 2 weeks ago and I found the experience great. I lost only 2kg (down to 71kg from 73kg) and I'm looking to do a 3 week fast. However, I'm really worried about gaining back all the weight I'm going to lose. Whenever I'm not doing a multi day fast, I always do OMAD and it's highly keto, but I do eat large portions and I'm really afraid to get all of the weight back because after not having eaten for 3 weeks, your body will get food back every 24 hours which will be way more than the past 3 weeks when it got nothing...
Start with digesting soups to avoid overeating
How did you only loose 2kg from a 7 day fast
@@xocyber8626 I don't know. And I really did fast, not fake fast. Didn"t even eat a grain of salt. I'm so disappointed....
I always feel bad when I eat because millions are starving. I am starting my fast today and would like to do it regularly in solidarity with those who don't have food to eat.
??? There are plenty of sad/depressed ppl out there. Why let it stop u from celebrating life? Spread your sunshine. Then go volunteer.

@@TiMalice2009 I’m just saying a little support wouldn’t hurt!!! Especially when you can see she put in a lot of work in this video🙃.
Compared to other fasting videos yours was very informative. Great video TY!
To break a fast safely, it's best to drink fresh orange juice to put the acid back into your digestive system for 2 days. Then on the 3rd day a glass of oj in the morning and some broth in the mid morning, lunch a small salad and at supper a small salad with a small piece of meat or protein. Then the next morning an egg or 2 and the eat smaller meals and drink lots of water. Lemon water first thing in the morning on an empty stomach helps with the digestion and is a liver cleanser and helps with the lymphatic system. Also, helps with ridding body of extra water weight.
Dont forget to add your minerals while water fasting like Himalayan salt to your water
My brother did one for 14. One for 11 days. And twice for 7 days. He made me do a 7 day one...that was the plan. I fainted on day 4. Precisely after 87 hours of being on water only. My BP fell a lot. I went down to 85/54 ....hence my usual BP is 100-110/60-65. My blood sugar is at 70-74 and has been so since past 2 decades whenever tested. I wasn't feeling hungry after day 2, but did not feel energetic. It was scary for the family because I just got up and straight away crashed. I don't remember fainting but as I fell I broke the curtain rods , as the curtains broke my fall . I was standing in the balcony and fell into my living room. I fell sideways to my right side. Luckily no injury and everyone was around and saw me crash. I am otherwise a fairly active person and at a good weight for my height. My BMI is 23. I was doing this fast for inducing autophagy and a deep detox. However I feel not every one of us can straight away jump into a 14 day fast or even a 7 day fast. I would do a water and juice fast for 7 days first before I attempt another only water fast... Better to go slow than to land in trouble. Kudos to those who can straight away do this. They have good nutrient dense bodies I guess and their body can rely on stored nutrition to survive!
Were you making sure you were still getting in electrolytes (especially salt! Our bodies can't produce or store salt, but they can't function without it)
I'm on day 3 of (hopefully) a 7-day fast, and I find it IMPOSSIBLE to do on just plain water, even with a dash of salt. I get really weak and shaky. If I drink Zero Vitamin Water, I can get past some of the more difficult stretches, but with plain water and a dash of salt, I get so weak and lightheaded I couldn't continue. The Zero Vitamin Water seems to make a huge difference in my ability to go without food; at least at this point in the fast.
My cholesterol is high and I'm slim 25yo woman. So I'm in my 2nd day of fasting. I'm planning to do it for 17 days. I use salt, 10 drops of lemon juice and my multivitamins. Feel free to motivate me 😜😊
Best of luck to you! Stay strong!
Last night (the start of the 3d day) I woke up at 01am and puked 4 times in 2hours. I was feeling awful, my puls was 140 all the night, I couldn't sleep. I had to eat something after the 3d time, but I puked it too. I don't know why this happened, I had my salt and multivitamins. I'm gonna eat potatoes only today. This journey finished for me. Wish all of you good luck with yours ❤️
Lots of people puke on day 3
Which multivitamins did you use? Everytime i try to eat one i get sick on empty stomach 💀😭
how did it go Janny ?
Currently on 48 hours. Love your editing!
Congrats, you looked awesome after the fasting! Can you tell me something more about your cognitive during the fast? Was it hard to focus, think and work? I'm 17 hours into my 7-day fasting (I prepared myself by doing 2-3 day fasts before), but I have so many things to do this week: studying, working, courses and classes.
For me it was much harder to exercise than to work. Sitting down I had endless energy and mental clarity to keep on pushing through projects. But it was hard to keep electrolytes up enough to not get winded when working out.
Don't stop you're super sweet and will grow the channel.
Great job! But!
The weight doesn’t come back unless you go back to eating the way you ate to have extra weight in the first place.
Fasting is a lifestyle. A continued fasting routine is best. Perhaps omad, 16:8 etc.
Again, great job!
Ugh! Show us your personal evidence of that!
The evidence is in the fact fasting works. For me (OMAD and short term fasts) it’s been about 1(kg in 6 weeks.
Once you’ve fasted and calorie restricted enough to get your weight down to a healthy level, when you break the fast your weight may and probably will increase. As a minimum you’ll put on water weight.
So? You already fasted successfully - you know how to do it. Just fast again for a shorter period to keep the weight under control.
No diet says once it’s over you just go back to eating and living like you did and the weight stays off…
As mentioned in the video, the weight loss happens but I'm not actually fasting because I particularly care that much about losing weight.
I asked this know it all to show evidence it didn't gain back any weight. I didn't ask for a lecture
@Alexandra hoseavigilant lol k good
Anyone who’s focus is aesthetic/weight loss/getting lean - try weightlifting 5/6 times a week (focusing on progressive overload) and eating high protein, plant based diet. Drink loads of water and get loads of sleep. Add in short runs or walking if you have the time. This is the recipe to have the perfect body!
Great video, very informative....great job! You've inspired me to start..
There’s literally so much food growing around us we’re just disconnected from the truth
We’re frugivores who also chew vegetables just for the juice
Elaine,
You put together a fun video. I love the music and clarity. I hope you will publish more fasting videos.
Bru I did this and then a 21 day fast three months later last year, it SUCKED but some parts were really cool I guess except for the once and a while where u think u might die cause of weird heart feelings
I thought I was crazy with the heart thing
@@JazIsRad did u gain the weight back ?
So you just powered through even when the weird heart thing happened? I always break my fast when it happened aaa that explained why I can never go more than 2 days. Will the weird heart feeling go away after a while?
It could be a sign that your blood pressure is dropping too fast. I’ve experienced the same and I naturally have low blood pressure. My secret weapons this time around will be PH Salt & Electrolytes.
@@Itgyrl909 thank you for the tips. I thought that might be the case too since I drank a lot & took so little salt. Imma try again this week. Hope it goes well.
im doing omad right now and lose weight already, im also preparing my body for water fast next week
Seasoned faster here (water 45 days & dry 7 days) Please don't break an extended water fast(more than 3 days) as shown in this video. You can increase your risk of gastrointestinal issues, high insulin spike etc. Break the fast with a 50/50 mix coconut water & water or 50/50 Oj & water in small amounts every hour to see how you respond. Then have veggie broths then animal broths seeing how you respond. Then when ready move into solid foods.
Awesome job! I’m on day 2😀
Congrats ~ Keep going 💪🏾
Nice video, just a quick comment- the background music is a bit too loud when you're talking and it makes it harder to concentrate on what you're saying.
I enjoyed the Information that came along with your fast! Thank You.
Well done 👍 A true ambassador of fasting!
Also in 1960 US government was saying to eat more carbs and sugars and less protein
redoing this fast challenge again cuz the first time i broke on day two 💀starting tomorrow since today isnt over yet
day one: wasnt that bad just a little hungry but filled it up with some water
day two: drank sm water cuz i was feeling more hungry, and took like 2 naps
day three:
Loved this video. Subscribed. Please keep making them!
You look amazing. I so want to try this. Even a 3 day fast would be great. You did 14 days, so 3 days seems like a joke.
i agree but honestly i cant imagine even doing a day ...unless at gunpoint lol
@@alexperkins8433 bro it's possible
Ok ok .. I lost 8kgs in 1 month. My diet for 1 full day in the morning...
2 Eggs scrambled with olive oil, salt & pepper
4 scoops organic oats or whatever oats u have, blended with 500ml water
Water and more water whenever I feel thirsty or hungry
My exercise anytime I am free in the day
50 Burpees incorporated with push ups
50 squats
50 calf raise
Works for me. Hard to resist all the good food in Singapore but I did it.
I have a vacation in two weeks, so I will be trying a 14 day fast starting tomorrow! Once my bikini is delivered (in a few days) I will give updates and once my fast is over I will give my results ❤
Amazing! Congrats on accomplishing an insanely difficult challenge.

I'm on day 4 of rolling fasts. It's wild. Today is the worst. I'm not hungry, just weak, craving and freezing. I'm wrapped in a blanket, with socks, a coat. Jeez
Great presentation and very enjoyable video. Very honest about exercising. Enjoy motherhood.
It's day 7 for me. Still having diarrhea but today may have been the last day of that. I am doing great so far - not sure how long I will go. The longest fast I have ever done was 21 days and I didn't want to stop but a friend, who was also fasting, convinced me that we should stop, mostly because she was hungry 😂
Great video! I'm currently on day 1 of 14. Wish me luck!
Update ?
@@auzekazeI'm on Day 5 pushing to 6
Great job. Love and respect from here in iran 🇮🇷
Most of the times I had to break my fast at dinner was to be a good role model for my kids to eat…… I wasn’t hungry and could have carried through the night
Awwwww
You just got a new subscriber! I love how informative your video is. Really good.
Ok guys I plan on doing a 20 day water fast I am trying to lose 50 pounds before 8th grade I with water fasting every once in a while and working out I think I can do it I have a three month deadline and I plan to update y’all every day until day twenty wish me look 🙏🏿
Please don't do this as a teenager.
@@elaineisxyz why not ?
@@treche2952 cos honey you're still a kid...I dont want you to get sick or anything...
I found out after the fact that my 13 year old niece fasted for a few days. She felt sick for a little bit (some adults feel sick as well) but met her goal. She hasn’t gained the wait back either. Bottom line: to each it’s own but I would recommend not doing this if you have mental/ physical issues with food. If you already started please be careful and stop 🛑 immediately your body becomes weak or you get sick. No point in fasting yourself to get seriously ill or fasting to death.
Amazing presentation skills and great talking cadence and personality 🎉
This was so helpful, thanks for sharing your experience!
I'm currently on day 12/14
I've done week long fasts before, but this is my first time going beyond that
I have no scale, so I'm just going based off of photos. Be sure to still intake vitamins and electrolytes!
I am so sorry about your camera

KMSSSSSSS
I did about a 6 day fast (water, black coffee, zero sugar soda).
A few days in and the headaches were too much - I couldn’t do anything.
I started taking mineral supplements - magnesium, and multi pills with phosphate and things - but they didn’t seem to really help. I think not a high enough dose in the recommended allowance.
Anyway I decided to eat again to break the fast. I found that bananas (high in phosphates) really seems to help. So these days I’m “one snack a day” which means just eating a banana, maybe and apple and perhaps 30g of mixed unsalted nuts or some small protein.
With that the headaches seem to be controllable and the weight is still dropping off.
I couldn’t drink salted water - made me want to vomit.
I have chronic migraines and can’t get past day 2 without a blinding one
Every body is different! I’m glad you’re finding something that works towards your goals 😊
And yes you have to have so much salt in order to make up for what you’re not eating. It was like a full dish worth a day when I measured it out so it’s no surprise a pill or two wouldn’t make a difference.
It could of been the Black Coffee causing you issues. Black Coffee = Caffeine unless it’s labeled decaffeinated - just a thought.
Gonna start my water fast tomorrow for a week and I will also be waist training for those 7 days. Current weight is 56kg goal weight is 40-45kg will be updating after I am done.
I would try Organic (Grass fed is best) Chicken or Beef bone broth, 2 tbsp EVOO, and/or a healthy Smoothie after breaking a fast :)
Great job at your 2 week fast!
Am 5'5 and weigh 85kgs right now which is very overweight and I started having ankle pain Bcoz of it, so after this video I decided to do water fast. 14Days maybe if possible more than that.
Aug14 is Day-1. will update Everyday here !❤
Good for you Elaine! I'm inspired to try a fast. Keep doing you. It seems to work!
Could you share that recipe please? Looks delicious! xx
I prescribe to the "Chinese mom" way of cooking lol, so basically no particular recipe, use what I have. Haha...
The salmon I air fried at around 170C for 25minutes. I just rubbed it with some thyme and salt.
The cucumber on top was cut into strips and put into a sesame sauce with yogurt, overnight in the fridge (I'd actually made it for a different dish and had too much of it).
The fried egg & tomato dish is a Chinese staple. Fry the eggs first til they are just a bit runny, then put them into a separate plate. Cook the tomatos down in a neutral oil (like corn) with garlic and a splash of soy sauce. When they are soft and most of the liquid is evaporated, add the eggs back in. Sprinkle with chives.
Hope that helps!
I am a bit excited about this fasting. Well have to sink this idea into my head. Planning to start it from Sunday. Anyone likes to have fasting buddy?:)
