Well.. it’s been a long while since I’ve posted! I’ve been bad
However – in my defense.. life has been crazy. Busy. I’ve been all over the place!
But I come to you with an update. I’ve just completed a 24hr fast. One of two that I will be partaking in each and every week, alongside a warrior diet eating plan.
It’s the best of both Intermittent Fasting worlds!
So what are my results from the first fast? Excellent!!! I wasn’t hungry all-day-long! Only in the last hour did my stomach grumble and ache. Not only that, but I was flying high on constant energy. Not once did I feel tired and sluggish. I am truly amazed at how effortless this was for me. Truly.
What did I eat to break my fast? Well, my usual delicious salad of course! With two figs on the side (mmmm sweet nectar of the gods) and a bit of some pot-roast that I slow-cooked for 8 hours, made from grass-fed beef. With a delicious sweet gravy made by reducing the cooking liquids.
It was delicious and very filling. I found I got fuller – faster – on less food. The salad was enough for me, but I couldn’t NOT have some roast after waiting 8 hours for it… I honestly didn’t expect to be so easily satiated!
I’m really enjoying this lifestyle so far.

Cassandra…so you plan on fasting 2 days every week? Good for you! Any plans to do longer fasts? Have you read any fasting books by Shelton, Bragg, Ehret, etc?

Yep!! That’s the plan, anyway… we’ll see if it turns out lol!
I’ve read a many fasting articles and books. I support and believe that fasting is one key to health. I’ve no longer fasts planned as of yet, but perhaps in the future… !
