Can you expand on that? r/fasting is a good resource if you want to get back into it.

Electrolytes seem to be key. Plus keeping distracted.

A couple years ago I did multiple days fast for about a year then I did a 15 days fast.

My stomach wasn't hungry but my brain wanted to eat. This experience burned my motivation to basically starve myself and now I can't even do a one day fast, the mood isn't just there.

> keeping distracted

This is probably the key. I was bored to death and was watching YT cooking videos.
