You have guts....hell ,you can come to our house and eat applepie with us 
The autophagy is real thing , opinions vary how long have to do fasting to get it really run ....my gut feeling is it start doing it even with intermittent fasting , 18/6 or 20/4 .
Btw, i started intermittent fasting , Yesterday was the first full day .....doing because the shingles , my joints/ muscles are painfull when i move....and fasting is powerfull anti-inflammatory .....it lovers inflammation....and right now it seems like litle better today.
But the thing is....with fasting you can run in to trouble with loosing electrolyes . Specially potassium which is rapidly depleted first days and later also. Cramps, headaches and all sort of issues can come with low potassium ( hypokalemia )
Take also salt daily, when fasting..as you did
Might be good idea to continue with intermittent fasting Bally, as you already got that far . You can have nice eating window everyday, like 4-6 hours , and still get the benefits with the fasting window ( 18-20 ) hours....including autophagy, weight loss etc etc.
