I was 4 days into a fast today and had to stop.

I was feeling cold all over and mentally slow. My girlfriend noticed it first when she walked into my apartment and immediately saw I wasn't looking well.

I was drinking my electrolytes. I take a half teaspoon of potassium citrate and 1 1/2 teaspoons of table salt and mix it into a brine what I take sips of. I drink a gallon of water every day and I take a magnesium pill.

My symptoms at day 4 were diarrhea, confusion, and I was so cold.

I've never fasted for more than 2 days before but what am I doing wrong?
