in the spirit of ✨romantizing my mental illnesses✨
i am dubbing this specific phenomenon:
the slim hours
in my experience doing intermittent f@sting, this is the specific period of time in my fast where:
it’s after the point where i get the most hungry
it’s sometime at the 22hr mark, it used to be at the 20hr mark
i do not feel it if i do a 16:8 fast - only for extended ones (18:6 or OMAD comes times depending on what i eat before)
in my experience, i start to:
lose the hungry feelings
my body feels almost like my bones are heavy
increased focus after 17-18 hours, i was able to get multiple things done and efficiently
if i sm0ke 🍃, it hits 10x harder va sm0king when eating/after eating
most of the time i am able to ⭐️ve past 24hrs if i can get to this point.
feeling energized to get through workouts
feeling a bit more cheerful in personality/maybe in part to exercise release chemicals and such
each time i get to this time in a f@st, i always see the scale drop the next day. always.
drinking low cal drinks, coffee, tea, anything without cals doesn’t affect it.
i call it ‘the slim hours’ because it does feel like after the 22hr mark it’s like i feel myself shrinking, like my body is forced to eat through my fat instead of any extra cals.
this time is different for everyone, but i’d recommend finding
✨ your slim hours ✨
(let me know if there’s a scientific name for this i wasn’t sure and just gave it a cute name imo idk i was a visual arts major plz)

all these fucking thoughts in my head are making me loose my appetite (as well as making my stomach, my head and my heart hurt, but that's not really as cool)
