Another 36-hour fast done, another swim—and I felt much stronger in the pool last night, managing 1.25km pretty comfortably.
I weighed in this morning and in just those two days, I’ve lost 1.7 lbs. Again, some of this will be water weight due to fasting and exercising, but a significant amount will be body fat.
This brings me back down into the 230s – under 240 lbs – and gets me back to a weight loss of 18.2 lbs (8.3 kg) in total since I started in December. That is nearly 26 lbs since diagnosis (9.72% of my starting body weight!).
I now have less than 60 lbs (27 kg) to go, so I’m effectively one-third of the way to my target in just two months. If I keep going at this rate, I’ll hit my goal in another four months, which will be June 2026!
