It is normal to experience hunger and fatigue during the initial stages of fasting from "summary" of The Fast Diet by Michael Mosley,Mimi Spencer
During the initial stages of fasting, you may notice that your body signals hunger and fatigue. This is a common experience for many individuals who are new to fasting. The body is used to receiving a steady supply of food and energy throughout the day, so when you suddenly reduce your calorie intake, it can take some time for your body to adjust.
Hunger pangs are a natural response to not eating for an extended period. Your body is used to regular meals, and when you start fasting, it may send signals to your brain that it is time to eat. This is a normal reaction and should not be a cause for concern. It is important to remember that these feelings of hunger are temporary and will likely subside as your body adapts to the fasting routine.
Fatigue is another common symptom that many people experience during the initial stages of fasting. When you are not consuming as many calories as usual, your body may feel tired and lacking in energy. This is because your body is adjusting to using stored energy reserves instead of relying on the immediate energy provided by food.
It is essential to listen to your body during the fasting process and give yourself time to adjust. Remember that these feelings of hunger and fatigue are normal and are part of the body's natural response to changes in diet and eating patterns. As you continue with your fasting routine, you may find that these symptoms lessen, and you begin to feel more energized and comfortable with the fasting process.
