I don’t understand the weight gain. I’m hoping it will settle out in a few days. It’s making no sense to me.

I had no appetite after chugging a quart of salt water at 6:30 a.m. I decided to go with this and fast until I got hungry. It’s now 6 p.m. I’ve had a few glasses of water, but nothing else. I have no idea why this is happening. If you knew me, you’d be worried. I’m big on regular meals.

I’ve always meant to give fasting a shot. We’ll see how this plays out.
