Jason Fung is fasting 3 days to celebrate one million subscribers on YouTube. I am joining in! Have already fasted 64 hours without difficulty, so an additional 8 hours will be relatively painless. Am 15 hours in. Will avoid FS scrolling until fast nearly over. I learned yesterday that food focused photos and posts cause me to think about food more, and I really don't like to struggle with myself. IRL I have plans to prepare a family favorite dish for oldest child's 41st birthday. 41! Wow. So old. I was looking through her spouse's Instagram last night and smiling at the pictures of my little grandchildren, riding horsey on hubby's back. He said, "I sure can't carry them like that anymore." The girls are taller than me, now. There was one photo of me gardening. So big. I honestly have a fear of people at my funeral looking at photos in memoriam and I am fat in all of them! I really want to know what I look like without all this fat, and take selfies I'm not ashamed of. I would love to achieve a normal weight and stay there the rest of my life. I read through a bunch of journals yesterday (it was so worth the minefield), and there were pics of people 20-40 lb from their goal and I thought they looked great! I think I will feel normal weight when I get down to a size 16. It would be great to get smaller, but after being so big for so long, it might look strange. Anyway, that is 130 lb from now, so not a problem atm! Today is fasting, food prep, shopping, spending time with family. Obviously packing water for the get together. We have bottled water delivered and it's a wonderful, clean taste.

I think you're wise to avoid temptation of even food pictures when you're fasting. I know I would.

I am nearing the end of my second 72 hour fast and it seems easier than the first one. I was scrolling through FS and what got me was CarbAbuser's salad. I stayed fasted, but thought about vegetables for hours. Not bad, right? Dreaming about salad . . .

@LadyinDenim Looking at draglist's salad 🤤 None of the sugary posts have bothered me at all, though.

LOL, good plan Lady D, I know the thing about the pics, I have always called it Food Porn, but I do enjoy it on my eating days. I get inspiration about meals I'm planning....all except for the one I saw this morning, a big package of oatmeal raisin cookies, dunno what that was all about, it had no comment attached. I hope it was showing the bargain price and not a prelude to a binge. This time around it does not bother me as much as it used to.
