48hr fasting


I'm Catholic, and Lent is coming up soon. I plan on making 48hr fasting a part of what I am giving up for the Lent season this year.I've never done an intentional fast, mostly just 12-16hrs every once in a while if I forget or just have time to eat.I plan on fasting 48 hours starting on Mondays and ending on Tuesday nights for about ~4 weeks straight.Can you tell me what to expect? I don't really monitor my diet very closely, I just take a daily multivitamin in the morning and pretty much eat whatever I want, whenever I want, but I don't really snack much or buy junk food.I'm 6'0", and weigh about 175lbs. I'd consider myself skinny fat, and low-medium activity. I live on a farm and am active in the mornings when I do daily chores, but I work in an office and don't really do much during the rest of the day.I've mostly decided to try this since I've gotten a beer belly now that I'm getting older (30), and would like to see what autophagy can do for me during this short period. Any similar experiences or advice? Thanks! via /r/intermittentfasting https://ift.tt/vyKMYAa https://ift.tt/mrjS6Dt
