whenever you get in any fasting groove, your brain is running on ketone bodies and there is no wasted energy on digesting....you may experience some road bumps..but when you get there..you will never be as smart and clear headed
righton. how long does it take you 'to get into the groove'?
it's differnt every time and sometime you may experience lulls...but since you don't eat while you sleep things can happen quickly...I remember I started a fast and was in a lull the first day and was also getting crushed in online poker and figured to give it a rest, then all of a sudden I had a resurgence and a played a tournament which lasted quite a few hours an got first place for like 1.500..but it was just a 5 or 10 dollar tournament,,,,I also write a lot of superb recipes when I am fasting, but I am a decent cook...not just that I am hungry..lol..all kinds of ideas come forth
good points, ya I guess that is part of the sequence - you dont necessarily know when your in the groove you just suddenly 'are' and the time has already passed as you shared ie- crushing it in Poker or hopefully something productive.
thats funny about your cooking ideas I was gunna relate the same thing! From the few fasts I have done, that was the one thing that really was vivid in the mind - your appreciation of food goes way up and so to does your creativity; so you will be planning the grandest of meals you would otherwise not be motivated to coookup during the daily grind.
