/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I'm around 55 hours into a 72 hour fast. I get obsessed with looking at food while fasting.

sounds like a good way to test and strengthen your self control to be honest

>>11249360
that's why im doing it
also because it gives me ideas on what to cook when I'm done

>>11249348
JEsus shit I try not to when fast, so I play games, realized after my humble bundle subscription was some sort of COOKING THEME with cook serve delicious 2, and realized it was just making me hungrier, so play another game only to later realize it's battle chef brigade a fighting cooking gaming ....

>48 hours in
>Always end up browsing this fucking board well fasting
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

I can't stop myself while fasting. I lurk here, watch cooking vids on youtube, compile a list of recipes I'll make when my fast finishes. It's masochistic.

Do you still feel hungry after 5 days?
This one /fit/ video on fasting says that hunger subsides after 2-3 days, was that true for you?

Not OP but yes, hunger subsides after a few days. How many days varies somewhat, and during this period the hunger isnt continuous or even necessarily frequent, I'll get waves of hunger that last maybe an hour then subside then I'm good for another few hours to a day. If I've been doing keto beforehand then the hunger pains are usually gone by the middle of day 2, if I went into the fast cold then it can take 5 or so days to fully go away. After that, though, not only are you not hungry but your stomach actually feels full like you've just eaten. Consequently when I fast I prefer to do extended fasts instead of the short ones, short fasts just maximize the aggravation. Longest fast was 6 months (I got sick and decided to break it, though in retrospect this wasn't a good reason).

with or without water?

For me the "hardest" (still pretty easy) day is the first one. From day 2 i lose most appetite

>>11250682
I find I'm still hungry, but after 72 hours the blinding obsession for food goes away. 1st day ezpz, 2nd day physically hard, 3rd day mentally hard. Then you're clear.

I like to watch fat people eat on jewtube,
so I lose my cravings. Do you want to be a Joeysworldtour or your best self?

Watch Hungryfatchick and you’ll hate food.
