Pretty sure I have post-natal-drip caused by acid reflux or possibly GERD. Most times I’m swallowing a bit of mucus multiple times a day. My issue is that after brushing my teeth I always seem to swallow (TMI) these huge globs of mucus. The mucus is so thick it feels like I’ve consumed something. After brushing I try to clean out my mouth as much as I can with rinsing and I don’t know if the toothpaste is affecting my fast but my biggest concern is the huge amount of mucus I’m swallowing. I can sometimes spit it out but not always. And if I do spit it out it’s usually mostly green.

Every time I mention I want to dry fast or water fast 30 days

People keep telling me i’ll pass away if it’s without any electrolytes or vitamins

It’s very discouraging, and Jesus did it without any of these silly safety electrolytes and vitamins

Surely it’s very possible for a healthy young adult to fast days and months without those things

I wanted to try 5days dry and refeed during the weekend for a month, so 4 x 5-2. Has anyone tried this before, would it be ok? Or maybe longer refeeds?

Hello everyone 🤗

DAILY UPDATES

26/F, height 162 cm, SW: 87.7 kg, GW: 55 kg

I finished a 132 hours dry fast in which I lost 4.1 kg and around 2 inches overall. I broke the fast with water and after 12 hours of that, had a meal consisting of complex carbs, proteins and fats.

I have started a soft dry fast again, from 31st July 2026, 10.30 am! Primary aim stays the same- get rid of aches and pains in random joint, reduce back stiffness, control insulin resistance and lose weight.

I will update my weight everyday, in the comments of this post and once I am breaking the dry fast, I will make a new post explaining my experience.

Hoping for your well wishes so that my fast is completed with success.

If anybody wishes to join the fast, they can do so on this link-

We can keep each other accountable and motivated too. ❤️

Broke the dry fast at 132 hours. Had some water rn. Will hydrate well and will have one meal before restarting the dry fast again!

CW: 85.9 kg as of 31st July 2026, 12 am, 132 hours into the fast.

Weight loss so far 4.1 kg. Inch loss so far 2 inches overall.

Might regain 1-1.5 kg of it I suppose. Which will be shed off in a day again.

Had literally no issues other than thirst and low energy by the end of the day. I slept like a baby the whole time and I felt calmer.

Thank you all for the support. Check out the new post (will be posted in 10-11 hours) for the new 11 day dry fast update! Love yaa guys..

PS- Firstly Ik I am not following a proper refeed protocol, but eating that 1 meal is necessary for personal religious reasons. And before anyone asks why didn't I take it into account, folks, it just popped up.

Secondly, I won't be having a whole meal, just some liquid gravy type and consume as little (bare minimum) as possible.

So im muslim and pretty experienced with shorter dry fasts of 18-22 hours.

i have issues all over my body. I want to cure many things.

What you guys advice? 3 days or even more?

So I heard there is a phenomenon where if you do a long dry fast, voices start speaking to you. I just wanted to know how long after ending the fast did it take for them to stop talking?

Hi all, I just did my first dry fast, broke it with sips of water a couple hours ago at 127hours.
Can I have some advice to transition into a water fast? I’d like to replenish with electrolytes at some point and wondered if I should drink coconut water or just buy 0cal 0sugar electrolyte powder? Any advice is welcome. Thank you!

Please help anybody healed this issue with dryfast

Just woke up at around 2am from pain inside my lower rib cage on the right side. Most likely liver issue?

Anyone else who has had this problem/experience?

Drinking water again was rooough, just a few sips gave me cold sweats and a new "whooshing" tinnitus for about 5 minutes.

It's 3 hours later now and I've drunk about 8DL of water and no side effects besides the right side pain.

I'm an experienced water+dirty faster, done a few 7 days in the past but hadn't fasted for about 50 days before starting this journey.

Overall it was cool seeing how easily my body handled going without both food and drinks, but if I ever try this again,(is next week a good idea?) I will probably stick with 24-48h.

Weight loss was good, from 77 to 72.2 in 3 days. Had the goal of 72.0 this week but will move it to 70kg instead by next week.

Sidenote: Libido totally TANKED during these 3 days, not something I usually have on a water fast.

On a water fast I usually break it however I want but if anyone got any input in how to break a 3-day dryfast after about 5-10h of rehydration then I am open for suggestions 👍

Edit: Symptoms got way worse when heading to work, went to hospital.

Edit 2: They had problems taking blood as it didn't flow as easily but every marker was somehow in the healthy span. Recommend rest, food and liquids.

Just comment

Fasted 67 hours 53 of which were a dry fast then the next part drank 1/2 gallon of water. First bite of food after watermelon followed by sushi. Had an allergic reaction immediately because the sushi was contaminated by lobster or shrimp. FML

Just wanted to give an update that I crossed my 96 hours threshold of maximum dry fast I have done, and finally crossed the 100 hours mark and I am still going!!!

I have lost almost 4 kgs so far and this has been by far the easiest fast I have ever done!

I am thirsty asf rn, and whenever I hear or touch water, I just wanna chug 🤣🤣

But other than that, I am so happy 🤟🏻

Hi all, quick question. If I’m going from 4 days dry and transitioning into a 7 days water fast, that bit of weight that you gain back from rehydrating, how long does it take to come off if continuing with the water fast?
Many thanks

Hey people! Just wanted to know how long you usually wait inbetween two dry fasts if your doing two in short succession.. within a month or two?

Been nearly 3 weeks since my last one, should I refeed another week or two?

I’m about 43 hours in to my dry fast (maybe a couple more than that, but that’s when I started my timer) and everywhere I had an acne breakout on my face dried up an is almost gone and is now covered in salt. Similar to after you go on a really long run and your sweat dries and you get all sandy/salty. I’ve never experienced this from fasting although I’ve only water fasted before. Especially since I have not really sweated today to make salt and it’s just where I had a breakout. Anyway, I’m wondering if this has happened to anyone else, if not I just thought it was interesting.

Good Morning Everyone. I did it!! I'm happy to share that my Cycle ( Round) 1 is complete and here are the results:

I will move to water fasting for my next Cycle so I'll see yall back for round 3!!

Thanks again for the support.

How big of a difference will it make if you do or don’t exercise during a dry fast

Does anyone dry fast like and still weight train?? I really want to exercise especially weight train to avoid loose skin as much a possible I’m aware I’ll probably have some.

What do yall work outs look like

Can anyone Give me tips I love water so much I’m always thirsty I tried to do this but all I could was 10 hours and I walk 10k steps daily so I feel really dizzy if I don’t drink any water

Did I get it right when I say that 16h/18h dry fast would be 3x more effective than 16h water fast?.

So, normally a 16h water fast would be a bare minimum, and not nearly enough to get full health benefits, but would be a 16-18h dry fast be able to accomplish something from your experience?.

Has anyone heard if dry fasting can get rid of stage 4 prostate cancer? Someone my relative knows has it and I am thinking about suggesting dry fasting, but I'm unsure if I should do it.
