I ended my 60 hour fast (Sat, 2/10 7:30pm ~ Tues, 2/13 7:30am) with Powerade, and I think that's the ticket for me honestly.
The dropped insulin + the raised adrenaline (because I have POTS syndrome and that kicks in heavy in the mornings) were awful, but I was really just trying not to get sick again because I don't want my mother thinking I need to go to my cardiologist 💀 so I researched for like 5 minutes and figured I'd give it a shot since there's like 34g of sugar in a Powerade, and apparently that followed by eating baked potato chips is what my body wants after?? I'll probably switch it up with like a sugary smoothie and some almonds or whatever in the future, but woooo!
So yesterday was spent talking to a friend and getting food back in me. I was able to eat the foods I struggled not to break my fast with (chicken alfredo with a new 4 ingredient pasta which I swear is the best pasta I've ever had, never going back to the boxes, the last half slice of cake left in the fridge, dark chocolate, Greek yogurt, strawberry Ramune, it was lovely), and then I almost skipped dinner because it was supposed to be shrimp tacos and they're like meh to me, but then they ended up being sandwiches with cabbage and tomato and a sauce my mother made and they were under 250kcals, soooooooo I caved and it was delicious
Sometime at 8 or 9 yesterday morning I realized that the belt I had cut a new hole into that was a bit too small for me that I had to suck my stomach in for fit me. I fit into the goal I forgot I set, and I have never felt a feeling like what I felt in my body when I realized.
Today mother made me food at noon and I hadn't eaten yet today, so I went into my fasting app and checked how long it had been between meals to see if it was even worth logging... I accidentally fasted for 17 hours. For reference, fasts 16 hours or over are loggable to me. Anything else is, personally, barely a fast and I won't even acknowledge it usually. So I've been having quite a nice few days 😎✨️💃🤭
OKAY good luck to you all, may you reach random ass goals, go hydrate bitches (<33)
