Tufte-style infographic for Day 4 of an 11-day water fast, Cycle 2. Cream background with serif typography. Top status bar shows: weight 89.8 kg (down 3.5 kg total), sleep score 81, readiness 84, lowest heart rate 60 bpm. Center left: line chart of daily weights declining from 93.3 to 89.8 kg over 4 days. Center right: three sparkline charts showing calories burned (2298, 2810, 3063, 1936), sleep hours (6.0, 7.3, 3.6, 6.2), and sleep scores (71, 92, 62, 81). Bottom three columns explain metabolic state (ketones at 1.5-3.0 mmol/L, autophagy upregulated, HGH elevated), physical state (sleep recovering after disruption, HRV low at 24), and what to expect (hunger disappearing, steady energy, mental clarity improving). Data sourced from Oura Ring.
Refeed Day 5 Metabolic Restoration infographic for post 11-day water fast. Shows current status (89.8 kg, +0.2 kg overnight, -8.5 kg total), five metabolic processes with illustrations (enzyme restoration, gut microbiome revival, glycogen replenishment, insulin sensitivity, muscle protein synthesis), daily intake targets (100-120g protein, 1400-1600 calories, under 30g carbs, 2.5-3L water), and four-meal timing guide from morning to evening. Tufte-style scientific design with cream background and black serif text.
Tufte-style infographic on cream background titled 'Day 11: Completion & DEXA Scan' for an 11-day water fast. Top status bar shows: Phase Completion, Weight 88.9 kg (-9.4 kg total), Sleep score 67 with 5 hours and 87 min deep, Readiness 72, Lowest HR 54 bpm (new low), Progress Day 11/11 Complete. Left side displays a line chart of weight dropping from 98.3 kg on Day 1 to 88.9 kg on Day 11. Right side shows three sparkline charts: Calories Burned ranging 1923-3154, Sleep Hours varying 4.6-7.9, and Sleep Score fluctuating 63-87. Bottom three columns explain: Metabolically - maximum autophagy achieved, immune system primed for regeneration; Physically - lowest resting HR shows cardiovascular adaptation, ready for DEXA scan; What to Expect - break fast with bone broth, avoid carbs 24-48 hours.

Day 10 Extended Autophagy infographic from an 11-day water fast. Shows weight dropping from 98.3 kg to 89.7 kg over 10 days in a line chart. Three sparklines display calories burned (declining from ~2900 to ~1900), sleep hours (varying 4-8 hrs), and sleep score (50-87 range). Current stats: 89.7 kg weight (-8.6 kg total), 72 sleep score, 76 readiness, 58 bpm lowest heart rate. Bottom sections explain metabolic state (deep autophagy, stem cells activated, ketones at 3-5 mmol/L), physical condition (stable weight, low resting HR, 87 min deep sleep), and expectations (one more day, DEXA scan Monday, prepare for refeed). Tufte-style minimalist design with cream background and black serif text.
Day 9 of 10 water fast infographic showing 89.7 kg weight (-8.6 kg total loss), sleep score 87 with 7.9 hours and 118 minutes deep sleep, readiness 79, lowest heart rate 60 bpm. Left chart shows daily weight declining from 98.3 kg on Day 1 to 89.7 kg on Day 9. Right charts show resting heart rate trend (66 to 60 bpm) and sleep score trend (84 to 87). Bottom sections explain metabolic state (ketone efficiency, stem cell activation, peak insulin sensitivity), physical status (best sleep of fast, steady 1 kg/day loss), and expectations (prepare for refeed with bone broth, avoid carbs first 24-48 hours).

Infographic showing Day 6 of a 10-day water fast. Weight chart displays decline from 98.3 kg on Jan 2 to 92.1 kg on Jan 7, total loss of 6.2 kg (13.7 lbs). Body composition from DEXA scan shows 37.1% body fat and visceral fat at 5.18 lbs, estimated now at 3.0 lbs (target 1 lb). Five sparkline charts show Oura biometrics trends over 7 days: HRV rising from 14 to 38 ms, resting heart rate dropping from 82 to 56 bpm, sleep score ranging 50-84, readiness score improving from 48 to 81, and sleep hours varying from 4 to 7 hours. Key events timeline: Day 0 fast begins, Day 2 DEXA scan with glycogen depleted, Day 3 bile dump and entering ketosis, Day 5 deep ketosis with autophagy active, Day 6 lowest resting HR yet at 56 bpm. Current status shows autophagy active phase, weight 92.1 kg, sleep score 75 with 5.7 hours at 90% efficiency, HRV 38 ms (+171% from baseline), resting HR 56 bpm (-32% from baseline), 4 days remaining.
Infographic showing Day 5 of a 10-day water fast. Weight chart displays decline from 98.3 kg on Jan 2 to 92.9 kg on Jan 6, total loss of 5.4 kg. Body composition from DEXA scan shows 37.1% body fat and visceral fat at 5.18 lbs, estimated now at 3.5 lbs (target 1 lb). Five sparkline charts show Oura biometrics trends: HRV improving from 14 to 41 ms, resting heart rate dropping from 82 to 58 bpm, sleep score fluctuating between 50-84, readiness score rising from 48 to 82, and sleep hours varying from 4 to 7 hours. Key events listed: Day 0 fast begins, Day 2 DEXA scan with glycogen depleted, Day 3 bile dump and entering ketosis, Day 5 deep ketosis with autophagy active.
