Hi! Not sure how active the community is but thought I'd make a post similar to the r/fasting daily check in.

I'll start: Been OMAD the previous 2 days and currently 23 hrs into another fast. Feeling a bit tired but otherwise okay, so might go nap to get it over the 1 day mark. Haven't decided whether to extend.

I'm new to fasting. Does anyone do 24hr fasting one day a week regularly? I'm hoping doing so every week helps keep my appetite down/in check.

I've even thought about doing so regularly twice a week, but have no idea if that would work at all.

I have a lot of success with a ~48h fast between dinner on Sunday and breakfast on Wednesday every week. I built up to it in 8h increments, find it easier than fasting every day. I do track calories for the rest of the week, but sometimes I forget or lose track for a few days, and it doesn't seem to affect a steady weight loss of 1kg/week.
