Its been 9 days since the last 24hr fast. The plan was to try to do it every week. This time was a bit tougher. Went 7p to 7p. The hunger didn't go away as quickly after drinking tea/miso soup/broth/ume-ginger. I wasn't 'starving' and there was no hunger pains, just hungry and it stuck around. Also felt low-energy in the afternoon. Had to take a 30 min nap around 3:30p. Felt a little 'hangry' that last few hours. This time was also first time doing on a non-work day. I tried to stay busy, did errands, thrift store, and free food, was out for about 3hrs. I dunno if seeing all the free food kept my mind on food. BP remained somewhat high. 130/99 last night, 145/112 at 10am, 134/98 at 3p, and 148/92 at 9p after fast was over. Just took metroprolol today, in case BP dropped. Definitely was ready to eat at 7p, the last I wasn't even hungry after the 24hrs.
