I also have found munching on a pickle helps a lot as well. Are there any other types of food I could eat besides pickle that can carry me through a particular tough day besides pickles (ie lettuce, chicken broth, celery) that won't negatively impact my fast? I was thinking maybe even a small piece of protein (jerky) may also be good but would love to get any additional suggestions.

Boiled egg would be excellent 911 Food as it combines protein with very good fat and is not a remnant of the "low fat brainwashing" like jerky would be

Protein of jerky would have a slight insulin response, tho much less than carbohydrates, while the fat in an egg won't cause insulin response while giving great satisfaction and remember it's the low insulin of longer fasting hours, which is key
