 Has anyone here tried a "dry fast"? I'm interested in learning more about it.

If you have done a dry fast, how did you do it?
For how long and how did it go?

 Yup, I've done 24 hour water fast but never a dry fast.

 In daily life I do OMAD and CD with water fast. I do not recommend dry fast. Your body gradually use water in many processes. Dry fast will eventually dehydrate the body and made it even more stressful.
I do not know your purpose of doing fasting but dry fasting more than like 12 hours, personally not recommended.

 I go dry during most of the week and only really drink loads of booze at the weekends.

Always drink plenty of water though, no body benefits from dehydration the way they can do from calorie restriction.
