If fasting works for you, how many hours per day can you go without eating? How do you feel then? 🤔

I am 24 hours into a fast and feel normal. I am mad that our media acts like we're going to die if we don't constantly eat, especially when we are so fat!

Fasting is like working at a restaurant. you close the restaurant so you can eventually clean the store and get out of there but you’re never gonna be able to clean the store if people keep coming in

I’ve started intermittent fasting around 6 months ago. I’ve noticed lately that when I try to eat as much as I did half a year ago, it was a lot harder, and I got full much quicker than before.

I'm fasting during the Corona virus lock down because everyone had already bought every food off the shelves.

Fasting isnt just about weight it's about cell regeneration

In to day 3 of a 3 day fast. The hungry feeling has finally stopped. I am no longer at risk of chewing off somebody's arm. My body feels weak just at the same time. I feel energized and wanna keep moving. I may just push on for a 5 day .

Tried 24 hour fasting per week and worked very well. It was easier than I thought and felt great. I also run about 25 miles per week and my running did not suffer at all. Actually I felt lighter when running. Suprisingly I also noticed I was not super hungry after the 24 hour fast period and my portion sizes gradually got smaller.

Anyone else feel sick when they eat breakfast at the time schools require you to be up?

I fasted for 5 days once, it's more mental than it is, especially when you go to work and everybody is eating and you just sit there drinking water, i lost 6kg in a week, and really felt much agile and better

I'm 62 years old. Seven months ago I started on a 16 hour daily fast eating pretty much what I liked . Since then I have graduated to a 20 hour fast combined with a keto diet and daily gym exercise. I have struck weight loss plateaus along the way that can be fixed by mixing things up a little, like a prolonged 72 hour fast for example. Overall I have lost 25kgs which is a quarter of my previous body weight. My doctor has taken me off blood pressure and cholesterol medication. I also have normal blood sugar levels.
I will continue with atleast a version of this diet ( maybe 16 hours fasting ) now for life and would recommend it to anyone struggling with obesity because of how easy it is.
We are being lied to. Fat is not the enemy. It's the sugar and processed carbohydrates that are killing us.

I always knew or known about fasting but I am happy to learn now that it just wasn’t me that never felt a downside or bad health from it. Fasting for me is WAY easier then dieting. Since I started doing it again since Oct 2022 I have lost 30lbs and feel amazing that all my clothes fit so nice now and I am committed to lose all the fat I have to finally be at my never accomplished goal of 205-210lbs I currently weight 237!

When i was a kid i thought Fasting means you can only eat fast food

Any Muslim brothers get this recommended in Ramadan

I’ve tried many diets but combining a low cal diet with intermittent fasting has been the most effective method for me. I steadily lose 2-3 lbs a week and I’ve lost a total of about 25lbs so far. It’s much easier than going on a strict boring diet and I tend to eat a lot less due to a decrease in my overall appetite

[danamartinez]

He said very very important sentence : fasting works when diet doesn't.. I've tried all diets in the world never worked for me.. So now It's been 17 days fasting drinking liquids . I've lost 10kg.

[mikeYXiong]

I've been fasting every day for atleast 16 hours and it's been about 3 months now and I lost 39 pound. I'm working out and exercising along the way too. Yall can do it :)

[niwaryearsago]

Everytime I fast, I realize how much I eat when I don't need 2. Every year i realize

[jerellem]

When I was fighting, I'd cut 18lbs in 3 weeks with intermittent fasting and doing cardio in a fasted state. It definitely worked 100% of the time. Never had a problem making weight. So yeah...it works...well with exercise involved.

[jameswhitmore]

I fast for 24 hours, usually once per week, but I switch it up, and sometimes just do a 16-18 hour fast. I will have no calorie tea, or pickle juice, sometimes a teaspoon of soy sauce. I'm getting older and this fasting proves to me to be almost mandatory to avoid inflammation, allergies, joint pain, and visceral fat gain. It should be a common practice for majority of health conscience people.
