24 hours passed already. I was drinking water with lemon and ACV drops and salt.

Feeling lazier than usual. Overall, feel good. https://video.nostr.build/da580f29d74bedded406073891b6906bfb1894710ec46dd127f8906bf709d611.mp4

120 hours. Was riding my sport bike for several hours, so didn't do 10k steps.

No thoughts about food. Only about greatness and success. People notice that I become leaner. Lost 4 kg in 5 days already.

Everything as usual: I drink water with lemon and ACV drops, plus salt. Take potassium and magnesium in the morning (340 mg of both). https://video.nostr.build/3059032e98c1f0a05812591961a029d11e4fe317258aee819651e82fc966525e.mp4

144 hours into my fast: Yesterday, before sleep, I had a headache. This morning, I felt weak. I went to the sports area in the park and did bodyweight training for 30 minutes. I still felt weak all day until, in the evening, I decided to drink a cup of coffee and tea. The weakness went away in 15 minutes, and I felt great after that and went for a walk.

People told me I have yellow eyes. I researched and found that fasting raises bilirubin concentration in the blood, which can make the eyes and sometimes the skin appear yellowish. However, it is not a dangerous condition.

I weighed myself not in the morning, as usual, but after the workout, so I drank lots of water, which added some weight. https://video.nostr.build/bccfe195730377196c58b258942cd7adc695509dafbb312cb2f71b3820a47a5f.mp4

168 hours. Today I was feeling great. No headaches, only a mild weakness. Had a great workout in the gym.

As I was preparing for a big commercial shoot for tomorrow, I hadn't time for my daily walk.

Took a vitamin B complex pill, calcium, magnesium, potassium, and salty water with lemon and ACV drops.

Fat dissappears and veins start appearing everywhere. Looking good, feeling good... https://video.nostr.build/d25c63604d27474a9bd8e5be0711c1dcba847285e4eeb909ee270cf1c7f5cf96.mp4 https://video.nostr.build/4fbf7818fe8680cdffcf024eb9a0937004be0d0f0d16a5dc65d55b7c64bfff5f.mp4

192 hours. Big filming day. I was running around almost the entire day, shooting sportscars.

Was feeling weak in the morning, but as the event started, had a blast, running around with maximum energy. https://video.nostr.build/fa5b93311af9e2f31d9003beeaf6f949d6e085d694a1d915e12d2d95888db0f5.mp4 https://video.nostr.build/922ed784d9152a5ad948f6d64c49ac268ecb302249e5bd59647c745fadfa2b71.mp4 https://video.nostr.build/e463b2623ef841a705e5147b77d4a387d1f7c0b8e6dc94ee64074a6a676dbdc7.mp4

216 hours. Overall, everything is good. Fast recovery, all the pain from yesterday's overload went away.

Had a 30-minute workout in the park.

Was drinking lots of water today, so the weight is the same. https://video.nostr.build/1a37a097138f89b928409d4b6ecf7e2a175ad0ce98d5f9aa8798637fbf418d4a.mp4

240 hours. Everything as usual, weakness, everything takes more effort, but I'm just used to it. I don't even feel the discomfort, it's just the normal state for me.

I become leaner with every day. https://video.nostr.build/a0f2cca60d61052264f7982961c7916cc47e889f9c668b6690633dbf21581264.mp4 https://video.nostr.build/c8f9c15cfe7c94589858cc1d9c86f22503e7656d90b0b40b92470fd932263114.mp4

264 hours. Lazier and weaker than usual. Lost 7 kg already. No training today. But walked 10k steps. Everything feels different, even sex, the body is much more sensitive. https://video.nostr.build/41b59072397e3cd69f4c1bd05bcd06f9ba0a761b8bf9a0a272f1157332cb34ab.mp4 https://video.nostr.build/b9f78f734e5c6f469692d83ba28b806f18ad3e2a351253b395c7ce4f9a662993.mp4

288 hours. Felt better today. Did my gym workout and 5000 steps. I was editing a commercial whole day.

During fasting metabolism and heart rate speed up, so more calories are used. Usually, I spend around 300 kCal, but now it's 443. https://video.nostr.build/1d3a4ef662c3d8e2992de9a8309b8bdbfaa5df474624eaa25f1fb49ce160a3cf.mp4 https://video.nostr.build/14631107f128a41c558233b7d731c3d2e7bd6f04e92f95b577910bd887aefd39.mp4

312 hours. As usual, weakness, sadness... Phisical activity and communication help a lot.

No gym training for today. Only walking. https://video.nostr.build/4f9dfe65340f81be1fff6c215a88e29f56aafe15841f232f8585a1160ce41eb6.mp4

360 hours. Everything as usual, weak and sad. I'm becoming leaner every day. It is noticeable. Drink lots of water and teas.

The gym workout is done. The body uses more energy, heart rate is up.

The walk is done.

6 days left. https://video.nostr.build/81d66e4b8654da08c9a762ac46612b96d48bacda86134e70f39336ea9f96b57a.mp4

384 hours. Doing the same stuff. Feeling the same. Only 5 days left. Let's do it, babe! 🔥 https://video.nostr.build/06a5c3e3df0a7b7f7dd5e0a801e162090b9e37a7e2d17e7944fa92cdfbb86794.mp4 https://video.nostr.build/252bf0486d0f4ceaffeae4919230de1a5ce96689d0f00271b24a6bf2f7b4d46a.mp4

408 hours. Everything done as planned.

While it takes more and more effort to do things, it is what it is. Saying it gets harder doesn't help.

Harder is a subjective and relative concept.

If I label it as 'hard', I'll start feeling sorry for myself. I'll think that I'm pushing too hard and, perhaps, I need to treat myself better. All this opposes my goals and is inneficient.

Instead, I am labeling things as I want them to be.

"I am doing great, I am strong and capable. There is nothing that can stop me. I always achieve what I want!"

This way, I create a reality that suits my goals and makes me unstoppable.

432 hours. Was busy doing business today. No gym, no walk. Overall, I'm feeling good.

456 hours. Training and walk done. Feeling ok. Fasting doesn't bother me anymore. Everithing is about adaptation. https://video.nostr.build/ab54d62796101cfbeac7cc1a1ed3c2305029dd15c43f84c7b340c8309c24155f.mp4

480 hours. Almost finished the fast, 20 hours remain. Was walking the whole day and communicating with people.

Tomorrow is an interesting day 🔥 https://video.nostr.build/554f5eabee26c06bd4018fa8019e202e86fc0fba7d30fd952a0867d52117cd3e.mp4 https://video.nostr.build/474b2a799776f34c2c3b86e14356873243e659d62393f0218439d20586726606.mp4

500 hours. I was feeling good today. Clear mind, almost no weakness. Went to the gym and had good training. Later, I did blood tests. Bought food.

My 21-day fast is over.

My weight is 78 kg, so I lost 12 kg.

At this point, I could continue and would lose 5 more kg easily.

But the plan was 21, so I will do exactly that.

Now, what is the most interesting part is blood tests, as I've never done that before. I did a test before the fast, today after the gym, and will do it in a week. As others say, my testosterone should have decreased during the fast, but after a week of eating, it should go up 150-200% compared to before the fast. It is a huge increase, if true, we will see.

I'll post all the details slowly, as they become available. https://video.nostr.build/ec213d73e90a547a57bab3ab0db56aa20b8e82af2a0986d4bfe3379510bfb433.mp4

Eating.

Around 500 g beef, cheese, 3 eggs, butter. Couldn't eat it all. Ate only a half 😄 But it was pleasure 👍🏼🔥❤️

Feel great, no negative effects, no stomach or any other discomfort. Just resting and enjoying life 🌞

"You should not eat food after prolonged fasts, you will die! You should drink carrot juice for several days, first."

Nope. Delusional! I eat and feel great, exactly how our ancestors did after they caught their pray. And I ate fatty meat! Fear me 😄

Weight loss.

As no food or calories entered my body for 21 days, the body tried to use whatever resources it had as efficiently as possible. So it used fat as energy and tried to preserve everything it thought would be necessary for survival, muscles, heart, lungs, and other organs.

I look significantly thinner than before, especially in areas where I had fat. After several years of eating, the small amount of muscles that were catabolizes will be restored, and also additional muscle fibers will be built, as the body remembers that I needed muscles to survive, I was lifting weights. Also, the muscles I have will be filled too. So I will look much bigger in a week or two. We will see.

There's lots of extra skin, which will take a long time to disappear.

I'll need more time to bring it to a better state. And this is exactly what I will do. Interesting times ahead.

I will post before and after with details in a week.

So. After eating for 2 days my weight was 80 kg. Effectively, I lost 10 kg. Now, with each meal, I notice how my muscles become bigger and bigger. And the structure of the tissue looks much more athletic. Separate muscles become more defined. Veins appear everywhere 😲😄💪🏼🔥

Waiting rhe blood test results from after the fast, and will do one more blood test at day 7-10 of eating.

Will take all the photos and make a detailed before/after post. Stay tuned.

I feel very good, energetic, and clear.

But there is discomfort in GI and gasses.

Wow! Just received my blood testosterone test results.

Before and after 21 days without food. It went up 2x 😄

One piece is left, to have one more blood test, after 7 days of eating.

Will update the thread with all the relevant info as soon as I'll receive the last results.

Ok. Time for the summary. All blood test results are received. 2 weeks of eating passed. I can draw conclusions.

First the visuals, 12 kg difference:

Yesterday. Adding mass. 84 kg. Muscles are growing rapidly, as testosterone is elevated. Fat, not as much. Also, the power is the highest I've ever had. I'm lifting the heaviest weights in my life now.

Blood tests.

Before the fast, I had my total testosterone at 16.6, and free at 13.

After 21 days without food, training and walking every day, total was 32, and free was 19.

2x and 1.5x boost. What happened after I started eating?

2 weeks of eating passed. I feel the best I've ever felt.

Testosterone dropped a little, but is much higher than before anyway.

What am I planning to do next?

Lifting heavy for 2 more weeks, then I will do 4-week fast and will record a video course on how to do it, and several video essays about health and fasting.

Interesting stuff is coming.

And greatness awaits 💪🏼🔥🚀
