IMPORTANT: DO NOT PRACTICE MULTIDAY FASTS DURING THE COVID-19 CRISIS AS IT MAY COMPROMISE YOUR IMMUNE SYSTEM!
From mid January I experienced a six week weight loss stall. I weigh daily which means there is a lot of fluctuations, so to confirm what was going on, I uploaded my data weightgrapher.com which smooths things out allowing me to confirm the trend.
Yup. I wasn't losing weight. It was flat. So at midnight 28/29 February, after a dinner party where I ate and drank whatever I felt like, I started my first extend fast. It ended up being 62 hours.

And that broke the back of my stall.
Attached is the graph of my weight from weightgrapher. The lower line with all the decorations is my trend weight line over the last month - nicely sloping down. The blue line above is 28 days previously. You can see the flat line, then the dip while I fasted. The weight rebounded and then - when I got back on WOE that I had been on before - the gentle decline resumed, and is still going a month later.
Now, I still say now is not the time for extended fasts, but I decided to post this because I have the data at hand, and who knows what the future holds. I hope this will be useful for someone in the future, when we have got the best of this virus.
Note to admins, if you are around: can we add a topic for extended/multiday fasting?
