⚠️ Before you begin: Consult your doctor, especially if you have medical conditions, take medications, or have never done extended fasting.
✅ The Goal:
Survive 10 days drinking only water (plus electrolytes), while your body resets, heals, and clears out the junk — mentally and physically.
📅 DAY-BY-DAY BREAKDOWN
🥗 Day 0 (Prep Day)
Goal: Ease in.
- Eat light: fruits, soups, veggies, no sugar, caffeine, or meat.
- Hydrate generously
- Reduce salt, smoking, alcohol
👉 Prepping your body makes days 1–3 way easier.

💢 Day 2: The Detox Wall
What You’ll Feel:
- Headaches, fatigue, brain fog

- Clearer skin and eyes
- Zero real hunger (but food memories may hit)
Tips:

🥲 You’re almost there. You’ve built mental toughness most people never experience.
🥣 Day 10: Victory Day (But Not Feast Day)
What You’ll Feel:

- No real hunger — but psychological hunger may surge
Tips:
- Break the fast gently:

🔥 Celebrate your discipline, not just the food. You did it!
