Intermittent Fasting For 30 Days | What Happens To Your Body?

🍽️Intermittent Fasting For 30 Days

This is what happens to your body!

Day 1: You start fasting by delaying your first meal of the day. The goal is to maintain a 16-hour fasting and 8-hour eating window every day. Because you have no breakfast, your lunch and dinner meals can be larger.

Day 7: You are now getting used to not having breakfast, and your hunger in the morning is gone. Many people even experience more mental clarity in the morning time while they are fasting [1]. There is research supporting that fasting can increase cognition [2]

Day 14: Because your body is now adapted to fasting in the morning, your total daily calorie intake is lower. Research shows that when most people use intermittent fasting, they end up in a calorie deficit over the entire day [2].

Day 21: After 3 weeks of being in a calorie deficit, you are now noticing your body fat is decreasing. Research shows that also your insulin sensitivity improves after weeks of intermittent fasting, so your body better controls blood sugar levels [3].

Day 30: If you continue lifting weights and prioritizing eating enough protein, you will see your body getting leaner, without having to actually count your calories.

Intermittent fasting is not a “must” if you want to get leaner. But it is a useful tool for creating a calorie deficit without tracking calories💪

Intermittent fasting is so underrated. I did it for 2 years and it is everything mentioned here. The body uses everything you put in (healthy eating) it and becomes more efficient over time.

Tried it and works now it’s a normal thing in my life

12 pm to 6pm is all the time you need to eat.

Soooo true. I lost 35 KG in 7 months. But i also went healthy Keto with 45min interval training on uphill treadmill every 2nd day. No alcohol of course. Then i added pushups... i could do about 50 in sets of 8. I now do about 300+ in sets of 40-50. My wife is very happy and i have thrown away all my meds. (I'm 55)

Skipping dinner is definitely better than skipping a morning meal

I have been following the Buddha teaching to not eat after noon, but still have breakfast, for almost six months, and I lost few kilograms in the first weeks, and have maintained steady weight ever since.

Generally I fast for at least 12hours, easily doable if you stop eating after a certain time and no discomforts. Still a good tool you can use 👍

Intermittent Fasting is truly an incredible phenomena. Week 3 and I no longer have morning appetites or feel hungry. 1 1/2 meals a day is all I need now in the afternoon and I still have the same energy levels. I feel lighter on the feet, think sharper, great digestion...awesome sleep etc. Hunger is all psychological and its wondrous how the human bdoy can adapt. Mind you the first few days were tough with stomach rumbling for food but it doesn't anymore!

breakfast = break fast, you always have a breakfast no matter at what time

[albrightonthenight]

Ive done this for years due to my job i tend to head out the door and then eat my first meal on my lunch break at 12. Ive stayed lean for years and im now 30, all i do is drink water and a can of OXYSHRED energy drink before 12pm to see me through. I can confirm my mental clarity is good, less sluggish, never bloated I sleep great and my workouts are always great.

*Ramadan is a blessing for us to strictly and easily follow intermittent fasting ❤ and because ramadan is going thats why i am also focussing on spending it efficiently*

I train in the evening 7pm i fast morning to 5pm. Ysually eat 5 or 6pm. And after exercise i eat 12 midnight. This has help me loss alots of weight but still have strength to lift.

[NightshadowZX]

This is essentially what I did to lose 100 lbs

[Thevoiceoverguy]

You still have to count calories. It doesn’t matter when you eat them.

[MeadeSkeltonMusic]

Won't skipping breakfast lead to insulin resistance?

[xx_HI_xx]

I eat between the hours of 0800 and 2000. This has worked well for me since I grew up not eating breakfast nor have I ever had the desire to. I eat 1 fairly large high protein meal with veggies and occasionally have a snack consisting of fruits and nuts. Might have some homemade jerkey if i find myself needing more fuel for those long days.

Bro has a sneaky build when he has a shirt he doesn’t look that impressive but when he shirtless, he looks huge

[Samurai_Psyche]

Eye opening stuff. glad I found this guy

[thunderfreeze]

These might serve your fitness goals but it’s not recommended for overall health. For example, eating heavy meals in the evening increases your risk of GERD

[huydang]

I agree. It’s happening to me right now and I have lost around 7kg already.

I would very confidently say and the weight has been mostly fat bc I look leaner while my clothings fit the same if not better. My sleep hasn’t been great due to the demand of my job.

Just prioritising protein, train hard and sleep well. The weight loss will be mostly fat. Good luck brothers
