I question whether the bottled water I'm drinking has minerals or not.

Today my 83 year old mom rag the bell for finishing her cancer treatment. I am grateful for my baby sister who has taken mom to her treatments unfortunately I can’t drive more than 30 minutes I have been able to get to them

Wife googled it, supposedly it does.

Most bottled water is just filtered city water . I’ve worked on building a couple of bottled water plants

I have been losing three lbs per day like clock work, starting on the 3rd day of fasting. Weighed in at 252.7 yesterday morning, and 252.1 this morning, so a little over a half lb. I read about fasting, and I guess that's normal. It can even go up a bit. Not discouraged though, last night made a week.

Hey all. Been a long freaking time. My love has been rekindled. Thought I'd drop in and say hi.

Yesterday's weighing yielded a loss of 6/10's of a lb, my smallest loss. Today's weigh in yielded a 4.4 lb loss, my largest, 252.1-247.7lbs. This evening will be 9 days of drinking water only. I feel like giving in, but, at the same time, I feel like I would be cheating myself. Made it this far, so...

20lb loss since fasting, 28lbs all together.

Gonna go one more day. Ten days total. Throwing the towel in. Not losing the willpower per se, but am tired of the stomach aches. Also, tired of having no energy.

Just remember, start introducing food back slowly. Broth and sweetened liquids for the first couple days, then a couple more building up the real food

 

[The Warrior]

Yup, read all about it. Told the wife I wanted soup, and watermelon.

 

[The Warrior]

Broke my fast. Had some soup and watermelon. Final results are 21lbs fasting, and eight dieting. 275 - 246

I think I need a new knife to celebrate my effort, haha.

I would support that, congratulations on your weight loss

Rainy dreary day here, one of those days that makes my joints ache

Its kind of like asking ChatGPT...we're all going to affirm your decision!

Gonna start a floor standing, shop press build. Not having one has left us tapping out on a couple of sequential and similar jobs where we had to sublet them out to a machine shop.
I just want to make one. Overbuilt is just right!

I think this is good inspiration for my build, watcha think?

Finally feeling a little normal again, besides a slight stomach ache. I read where it can take up to 2 weeks.

[plumberroy]

Doctor released me to get of pavement and carefully do a few things now

Yep. Lotsa fruit and veggies. No fried foods yet. Had a pancake for lunch.
