i started fasting once a week for 20-24hr, and it has changed my body and mind for the better. also, not eating anything after 5pm has drastically helped my sleep schedule.

Nice work disciplining yourself πŸ’ͺ

I used to do weekly fasts because they feel amazing. But I stopped a while back, because it messed with my hormones (and I became estrogen dominant πŸ˜Άβ€πŸŒ«οΈ).

Please be aware of your cycle, and that fasting like a guy doesn't always work for women πŸ™ ...our hormones are persnickety. The book 'Fast Like A Girl' by Dr. Mindy Pelz is great, if you're curious. She also has a YouTube channel with basically the same info, broken into short videos.

thank you for the recommendation 🫑 i appreciate it since the only fasting i’ve done before now is for Ramadan.
