Hi and welcome!
You'll find a number of other members with thyroid issues here, do take a look in the Fasting with medical conditions forum to find them.

As for your fasting experience, I'm afraid we don't allow discussion of extended fasting such as that, as without medical supervision it can be dangerous. But, please do feel free to talk about intermittent fasting

Hello bad kitty

I wonder what you did to be a bad kitty. My bad kitty (the black one in my avatar) ate my iPhone headphone wires and cost me $500 in emergency vet bills :-(

Good luck with fasting! :clover:

Hello @bad kitty, and welcome. look around the forum for info, help starting, and research into why this intermittent fasting works so well. There are great side effects as well. I really enjoy clearer thinking after a fast day, which really is not a total fast, but a very light eating day. Enjoy! :smile:

I am perfect just the way I am, as are we all.

Good luck! I've been doing this about a month. This is challenging, but much easier with more flexibility than other diets.
