new gimmick that I’m testing

I've got a friend doing this for the health benefits it apparently brings. He's already pretty skinny so not weight related. Thoughts of the health benefits associated with intermittent fasting, OP?

why would your body need breaks to do something as basic and natural as eating? Just eat healthy

it's like nofap and detox tea your body can autoregulate by itself and dont need all this

u prob right but it helps with creating discipline to cut down on eating in my experience

skinny fat most of the time.

not until you lift weight that you'll stop being skinny fat, you have a lot of muscle to put on.

Just got done bulking I’ve got muscle underneath

psychologically yea i guess it can be positive

Did you weigh yourself before and after

It doesn’t need a break, but it’s not bad to give it a bit of a break from constantly digesting. That’s only one of the benefits though

Most people do it for weight loss, but I think the other benefits far outweigh just losing weight. It’s incredibly worth it

Nah but I was skinnier fs

You really start seeing the world different when you don’t have to think about food. It’s lowkey a super power

I did it in 2018 and lost so much weight people thought I was dying lol I'm actually thinking of doing it again cause I've put on a s*** ton of weight

I did it for 21 days once and I had trouble chewing, digesting and food was just repulsive

but nowadays I'm on a balanced diet which I think combined with exercise is way healthier than just starving yourself

I was eating from 3pm-8pm. But work has been slow so I tend to drink or snack and ruin it. Once it picks up again I’ll start.

yeah kinda, ive been eating only every other day for like a month now and lost almost 10lbs so far. i eat a little bit on the fast days (like an apple or granola bar) and on the non-fast days i usually dont eat until like 4pm at least then eat big meal

Tried it for 2 weeks and was never not hungry

IF is amazing been its basically just normal for me. Cant lift after eating food

You have to intake an obscene amount of electrolytes for a water fast thru an electrolyte beverage with sodium chloride, potassium, and magnesium all added together. It tastes horrible but it will keep your body from going crazy

I've heard it actually helps with building muscle if you eat enough calories and protein obviously

if i eat the same amount of calories/exact meals over the span of 7 days as i do the 7 days after that but on the second set of 7 days i consume those same calories intermittently fasting i will in theory have less fat on my body? is that how this s*** works? im bare confused tbh

You’re over thinking it.

Eat from 12PM-4PM. Fast until 12PM the next day or whatever.

if you’re built different like me then you can do a full 24 hours easily.

man the only time I fasted for three days was when I was doing cocaine

Literally just take bread, pasta, and rice out your meals for like..a few weeks. It does just as much better as intermittent fasting
