Title: Fasting
Post by: Mince on October 14, 2017, 03:47:14 PM
I have just read about a guy who fasted for 382 days and felt  great the whole time. He consumed only water and a daily multivitamin.

I always enjoy hearing about your light holiday reading.

What happened on day 383 - a bacon sandwich?

He lost almost 20 stone. And then he probably had something healthy, like a banana.

I'm probably going to do something similar.

I fasted for three days once, for a routine age-related colonoscopy. When you don't eat, you like humanity even less, especially ones who sit next to you eating a big plate of chips.

Good luck! 20 stone isn't going to be easy.

No, I meant I'm going to have a banana.

You probably didn't get past the gluconeogenesis part of the fast. Another day and you would have been surfing the euphoria of ketosis.

The problem with fasting is that you're not even allowed to eat healthily. I could have a apple.

Please tell me you're not fasting on a family holiday.

Hey, it's the best time to start. I always put on a stone on holiday otherwise.

Right, Minceypoos...I'm with Roger on this one.

They say that the Scots are a miserable bunch, but the closest we get to fasting on holiday, is not trying to lick the inside of your beer bottle when it looks empty! Ok, so I know it's not a monetary thing, and that it's a lifestyle choice, but ffs...eat crap and rejoice on holiday! Plenty of time back home to trick your body into thinking it's healthier than it really is.

Ok, now I don't drink alcohol. Not even on holiday, but it a cheeky wee cone happens to be a 3 scooper rather than a 2...I'm going to go for it. Why? Cos I'm on holiday!

Now, let the hair down and get some good, wholesome unhealthy living into you. It's only for a few days after all!

 ;D ;D ;D

If I find something I want to eat, I'll eat it. Even my wife is saying no to the Indians as she has a sore throat.

Okay, you all twisted my arm! I'll start fasting again once home.

By the way, the guy who lost nearly 20 stone over 382 days was Scottish.

Quite right too...fasting on holiday indeed!  Pftt!

PS...what difference does it make, that he's Scottish?

We had a huge Indian meal. It was very tasty.
