<p>I recently started doing 40 hour fasts from Sunday night to Tuesday evening. I have been having a really hard time getting to sleep on Monday nights. I do not feel super hungry I just have a ton of energy and feel very awake. I am pretty active, CrossFit 5x per week and Ultimate Frisbee 3x per week + I walk everywhere. Tried melatonin and had zero change in my sleepiness.</p>

Wouldn't I feel crappy then?

My coffee consumption was the same, I generally have a large cup before the gym at 6:30 AM and then another cup when I get to work and then no coffee from then on. I did have two cups of green tea in the early afternoon.

My diet has been pretty solid. A few cheats but the last three months I have been strictly Paleo. I am 6'3'' and 215 at approx. 18% bodyfat. My stress and sleep have been good. I actually feel great it was just strange for me to not feel sleepy, I got up this morning and did a set of max deadlifts at my CrossFit gym and matched my previous PR of 500lbs.
