I'm 44 hours into my second 48 hour fast and it's been pretty easy so far. The only things I take in during the fast are water, losalt, apple cider vinegar and two lots of psyllium husk in unsweetened almond milk (can't take it in water, and need it for digestive issues) 600ml total.
Weighed this morning and had my first NL (new low) since November and fluid retention is also at a recent low.
I didn't really have much in the way of hunger issues, and feel pretty energetic today.

That's great news, Lee!
