5 steps to prepare for a fast

5 steps to prepare for a fast

Fasting is brutally hard, but it's our thing. Each year. A 5 day extended fast that feels like 5 years. Here, we'll share how we do it from planning to success. 

We just started to think about it in early January. There are phases to it, and it can get pretty detailed. Are you with us? It's gonna get REAL.

Here is a high level gimps:

  1. Plan. Literally, like in a calendar. We use google calendar here at our fasting drink company FAST:RX. 
  2. As part of this plan, you're going to have to ween down on the food. Types of food AND amount. That's right, it's a real F'ing process this fasting diet thing. 
  3. Stock up on your fasting hydration. THIS. IS. CRITICAL. We'll share why on the upcoming blog post on this step.
  4. Tell your family. Tell them you are doing an extended fast. That you will be eating for X days, and what that means for your household. You're going to need some support, and they are going to need to understand why you're so self-consumed and grumpy those days LOL.
  5. THE FAST....holy smokes. We'll be blogging a lot these days. Just wait.

 

For now, we have to laugh, because otherwise we'd just cry (right @leansquad?!). So, check out this reel from @drinkfastr.com and join us on how hard fasting truly is:
