Eat only when you really need it, when you feel weak or painfully hungry, NEVER force yourself to eat if you are not hungry
Why to eat? When food is just going to get you farther from your goal. There’s no need, it might suck in the present but in the future you will be happy when you see the results <3

Been fasting for a while now, it's true what they say, the first 24 hours are the worst but if you push tast that or keep trying you actually get used to it.
At the same time, don't underestimate liquids, there's a reason why all those ana meals come with a diet coke or water bottle, keeping yourself hydrated is key to surpass cravings.
Been fasting for 25 houra now and i'm not that hungry anymore, i keep sipping water even when i'm not thirsty to avois my stomach rumbling and when i crave something sweet i have a sip of diet coke.
Probably will break the fast with soup and veggies for the fiber, fasying does make you a little constipated so be mindful (and demure) about the food you eat before and after, those should be low volume, high fiber, preferably fuits and vegetables.

Benefits of intermittent fasting!
But first, the levels of it.
Level 0
0-12 hours -
At 4/8 hrs all food has left the stomach, blood sugars fall and insulin is no longer produced.
At 12 hrs all food consumed has been burnt, digestive system goes to sleep, body begins healing process, HGH (human growth hormone) begins to increase, glucagon is released to replace blood sugars.
Level 1
12-18 hours -
At 14 hrs body has converted to using its stored fat for energy, HGH increases dramatically.
At 16 hrs body is ramping up fat burning.
Level 2
18-24 hrs -
At 18 hrs HGH starts to skyrocket.
At 24 hrs autophagy begins, all glycogen stores are drained, ketones are released into the blood stream.
Level 3
24-48 hrs -
At 36 hours autophagy increases by 300%
Level 4
48-54 hrs -
Autophagy increases 30% more.
Immune system reset.
Level 5
54-72 hrs -
Regeneration starts.
Increased reduction in inflammatory response.
Level 6
72 hrs +
Autophagy maxes out.
Taking things into consideration, the benefits are:
Skin- reduces inflammation and acne.

I used to be a minor on here too but being 22 it would just feel wrong to follow teenagers and I also don't want trend on my blog either.
