Thank you for sharing your amazing journey. I am really motivated to do a one week water fast later this month to see how my body copes with it. I have a 8 hour desk job and I am kind of overweight (220lbs; 5’8). I am in my early 30s and not at all athletic. After over 5 months of nofap, I have come to believe that nofap itself is not the panacea to all your life’s problems, but it is the ‘drive’ to bring about positive changes. For the past 4 months I was in a prolonged flatline and depressed; down in dumps. I had started to doubt everything about nofap. However, in the last 3-4 weeks everything’s changed for me. I feel like my body is on fire. I feel amazingly warm and cold winter doesn’t bother me all. I have stopped wearing winter wears to office. It feels like hot wine is running through my veins; it’s both intoxicating and scary. I get amazing erections every morning. Even in office, slightest suggestion from even an average looking female colleague gets me hard as rock. It feels like my blood is boiling and generating the heat all the time continuously. This sensation has gotten stronger after I have started taking cold showers every morning and sometimes in the evening. My target is to loose 30-40lbs in and become fit. I have started doing weight training for the last two days. My exercise routine doesn’t get affected by my daily intermittent fasting schedule. I have a few questions, hope you would clarify them. Did you work out during your fasting? If yes, for how long and what was your routine like? Did you go out often during the period or stayed mostly at home? Did you tell anyone that you are doing this? Did your family and friends supported you? Are you planning to do this again? Thanks again for sharing your story. It’s motivational.
You don’t need to be athletic at all to do this & it is life changing. If I didn’t go through the terrible events after the fast, I’m sure the physical results I would’ve gotten would’ve been more concrete and benefited me a whole lot more. But the fast also moved my life! If I didn’t do that fast my gf wouldn’t have broken up with me(on the 21st day of the fast she threw a hissy fit and gave me the silent treatment but I was so focused on my fast I didn’t budge, I loved her but at the same time I was following a purpose) and it was one of the reasons we broke up if I didn’t do the fast My car wouldn’t have gotten stolen(it was stolen from a health bar early in the morning after a workout before going to work) when my car was stolen I called the cops and the cops told me I had a felony arrest warrant(clerical error) if I had never know about the arrest warrant I would’ve gotten deported( I was at the very last stage to become a US Citizen) All these events impacted my life tremendously by one decision I made and I am going through an ego death because of everything of last year. I am suffering I feel so lost weak frail band at times with suicidal thoughts but ready to recreate myself in a different aspect to continue improving. Obviously the porn weed and binge eating these past 5 months didn’t help but I’m am now beginning to understand myself in a different way. My goal now is to be able to get to your goal of nofap nopmo for as long as you are & while doing so incorporate everything I learned from the fast. The first 3 days I jogged 2 miles everyday & I think I lost 10lbs but it was mainly water & excess that my stomach probably had. After that I didn’t work out at all. I would play goalkeeper for my 5 a side soccer team(once a week) which was not serious at all Jus standing in goal & trying to make saves. & I would occasionally go for walks. at the time I had a gf & we would go out like go for walks jus chill I would avoid social settings though. But yes mostly I stayed home, go to work, go for walks, go to my soccer games, I wish I read more but I was always on YouTube, that was a mistake. The days were dull and tranquil. yes I told my boss, he got upset about it Thinking how stupid it was but I still did my work. My family knew about it They didn’t care as long as I didn’t die lol & some friends like a couple maybe But I tried not to talk about it & focus on completing it. I do plan on doing it again but I need to be more secured in life to do it. The first time I did it I was in the middle of a lot of things I’m surprised I went through it while so.
There are all kinds of fast in 2016 I did intermittent fasting (16-8) with a complete 1 day fast every week for 3 months. That helped me a lot too. You’ll definitely learn a lot about your body and gain maybe more from it. Fasting is ingrained in humans It’s in our dna It’s part of what led us to what we are today but we’ve lost our way.
i do fasting time to times, mostly between 2 days up to 1 week, i do fasting because i dont feel hungry most of the times also im on some anti-depression pills, and when im alone in my home, mostly i buy and eat light foods or fruits, and fasting really effected my : focus,weight,and overall health...
I read that while fasting on medication That your body will respond better. A lot of cancer patients see better results of fasting while on chemo. Autophagy
I am quite keen do combine food fasting and masturbation fasting. I gotta believe that the two together would be a powerful combination.
to be honest i try to recall my sexual habits sometimes, i found out , the times i was in a relationship and i experience `real sex` i was not have any interest in faping or watching porn because it was very feel fake to me and no pleasure! really... is there any same like experiences here ?
yes, when I had a gf I never had interest in pm Because she was responsible for that. Then I found out she had a porn blog ahhh I still stuck around I don’t know if she was a sex addict or p addict but after we broke up I turned to p. when she showed me her p blog I was like wtf and she asked me if I watched it and I said no cause that’s why I have you. A year later we were having sex while watching p I think that’s when p started getting more into my head
