If you haven’t done it start slow. Begin by reducing sugar as it impacts hunger and makes people ravenous during withdrawal.
You can begin the process by doing intermittent fasting, move dinner earlier or have breakfast later. Shift your meal times an hour or so a day until you can do a 20/4 split. Eat clean when you re-feed.
Once you have conquered your ghrelin Dip your toes into full day water fasts, when you do be sure to drink lots of water and if you feel queasy add electrolytes to the water (no sugars) try doing a day a week and then try 2 days in a row followed by a week or so of normal eating or IF. The longest I’ve done is 72 hours and it’s an empowering experience.
Listen to your body, drink water when you’re thirsty and don’t force water on yourself if you’re feeling full; and watch out for any signs of heart palpitations or other adverse reactions.
Obviously if you have underlying health conditions or you need to take medication you’ll need medical guidance before doing a multi day fast.
