With less than 4 hours to go, I am extending it to 9am tomorrow which will be 106 hours. So 14 hours to go.

hunger pangs disappear after a day or two. If you were to train yourself to go without breakfast by the third day you'd wouldnt feel the loss of it. Your body gets to know not to expect food at that time and you wont feel hungry then. But if you were to take breakfast on 6th day, for example, you would feel hungry again at breakfast time on the 7th day. I only eat breakfast on the weekends. I am totally fine Monday to Friday but Saturday and Sunday is like I need to eat before anything. I buy kippers to have on Sat and Sunday morning.
Not when you're lifting a lot of weight they don't. When you've just done a big set and your body is screaming at you for food, it's horrible.

I am a hair short of 5 foot nine as I age somewhat. Say 5’8 and three quarters
hmm...

Well, I don't use Lbs, I am civilized and use the metric system!

I'm going to say somewhere around 80kg.

Knowing a man's height still isn't enough (although there's videos of Dan so you can judge his size).

One lad at 5'8 could have a slender frame and be a bantamweight eg Dom Cruz.

Another at 5'8 could have a large frame (wide trunk, thick limbs etc) and be a welterweight eg Joe Buckley.

A fella once said to me there's only a certain amount you can change your body. Its like having a couch. You can pull out and change the cushions etc but the frame will always be the frame.

Only messing, Milo. It was a good post.

*As I'm still on moderation, I'm boycotting the site for a week in protest.

I don't know how tall you are, so it's hard to say.

There's no way you're 200LBs though, if you were even close to that there'd be no walks over a mile.
Correct Sir, as isual you are spot on. I can walk 10 miles without a both and when not fasting, my regular walk is 6 miles that I do mist days, weather permitting. If I have a tour I do 5 miles around Castle Island, two loops in Southie

You got it to the exact pound so you get to decide whether @Lazarus gets off moderation. I have to say that was excellent deduction. You knew if it was not decent, i would not be broadcasting it.

Well that is my weight, a tad over 12 and a half stone. That is a Body Mass Index of 26.1 and is actually overweight. 25 and above is overweight.
To get to healthy, I need to be below 169 lbs, shat is 12 stone.

very very few people that I see are in that range

That's been a while for me

I would be rather taller than you though. Plus my dick would weigh more than your clothes and phone :)

True, but you can change quite a lot with the right exercises. Bone density is a big thing too. I suspect this is how a lot of MMA fighters are able to cut a lot of weight and still retain power when they fight in divisions that they're really far too big for.

Why not, he can come off.

I also wouldn't put too much stock in BMI, it's a rule-of-thumb, not the be-all-and-end-all. 80kg for your height is a healthy weight. At that point you should be thinking more about different weight exercises than cardio. You'll still drop weight, but you'll be converting it to muscle.

Try and get a cable machine if you can. You can do a lot of exercises on them at a great price, and you don't have to have a spotter.

Ok, I will be making a video on the fast when my pep returns. I am a bit strained.

Next competition is to guess how much I can bench press, maybe @Wolf will do a little better.

That one is easier. Only about 5% of people can lift their body weight and over.

And I am not in that 5%. Maybe Val is, he could be the 2nd strongest man in Ireland.
