Those long fasts - is it supervised? I am sure I can fast 2-3 days at least just on water, but I live alone and I am worried if something happens, I would be toast.

I don't recommend anything more than 3-5 days max.
Without knowing what your goal is just try the 16:8 and eat a nutrient rich diet that is low energy. You should be able to fit 2 meals in (lunch and dinner) in a window from 12 - 8 pm. Nothing but water/coffee/tea before or after that window.
If your healthy and don't suffer from any issues, move on to one meal a day. After you master that then try a 1 or 2 day fast.
Look up Jason Fung on youtube. Great stuff....

Check out Dr Berg on youtube also. He does "Healthy Keto" which is a very balanced and healthy diet.
