    Depending on your physical strength, you’ll stop feeling hungry after 2-3 days. You’ll start to give off a body odor at around day 4, when you’re in full ketosis. After a week, you stop losing much water, mostly body fat. If you continue this regimen for more than 4 days, you’ll suffer refeeding syndrome If you break the fast with normal food, which can have severe consequences, so you better educate yourself before you try it.

    All in all though, people fasted for weeks thousands of years ago, and you’ll be under supervision (unless you’re crazy), so you’ll be just fine.
