Intermittent Fasting/excercise is the best weight loss tool i've ever done

[heart]

I'm at 187 as of this morning, officially lost 100lbs. Due to disipline, hard work at the gym and IF.

Seems daily I'm telling a new person about my journey and how great IF is..

anybody heard of this guy: How it Works | Getting Started

Snake juice is:

• 2tsp sea salt
• 2tsp no salt
• 1 litre of water
• (ACV, lemon juicem cayenne to taste)

first 48 hrs to cleanse and hit ketosis = 2 litres of snake juice + 2 litres of water

then IF, Keto going forward

Interested in doing IF, but I dunno how y'all do it eating all your (good amount) cals in a short window (4-6 hours)

Ketosis in 2 days seems highly unlikely.

Do the 8 hour window instead. Its the more popular way of doing IF.

I have to find a fast that works with breastfeeding or should I wait the 6 months?

Will taking DHEA break my fast???

Sounds like a bad idea

just did a 22 hour fast today + fasted cardio and weightlifting, and my stomach wasnt yelling at me like "Yo whats good with the food b "

i ate a huge protein fueled dinner of spanish chicken, and pork with Fried plantains w/ a protein shake
im good for the night

I know this is an old post but can you tell me what your diet consists of also what your workout schedule like/what workouts do you do.

No diss to you personally, but fukk what conventional wisdom has to say about the rate at which im supposed to lose weight or health in general. The body will lose at whatever rate its supposed to without compromising homeostasis. If you dont have the proper endocrine function right off the bat then you weight loss will seem sluggish.

Coming from personal experience, The perceived "muscle loss" was negligible and mostly glycogen depletion. Also people overestimate how much muscle they really have. My muscles look as jacked as ever. Another thing is I carried alot of fat despite being a naturally muscled up guy, so I had plenty of stored energy to burn.

during my whole weightloss period of fasting for 19-24 hours, I was never uncomfortable, jittery, or cranky. In fact I was at my most zen and focused. I weighed myself every 10 days, and until the tail end of my cut I consistently loss 4-6lbs without much exercise outside of jumping rope and a few minutes of calisthenics. Keep in mind I weighed myself every 10 days, or Approx. week and a half so That can explain some of the huge losses im reporting. Youre dealing with someone who was 100Lbs overweight, So those type of losses are within the realm of possibility. I know cause I lived through it.

I encourage you to shut out all the white noise of conflicting mainstream fitness advice thats making people OCD about something as natural as losing weight. I struggled for 7 years because i couldnt let go of all the religous dogma associated with losing weight so I would jump from one failed plan to another. Then I tried fasting and I started getting massive results that only got better as time progressed. Keep this shyt simple; Do IF, cut out all (Fructose)sugars save for small portions of fruit and drink a ton of water. THE WEIGHT WILL COME OFF. Trust me on this, but ultimately, youre gonna have to take this journey for yourself and by yourself; Dont allow others to place their limitations on you nor let random articles boasting about these dubious "studies" and "research" sway you from your path, especially if you are already succeeding with whatever you choose to do. Go your own way and fukk what all these talking head MF'ers are blabbing about.

I dont wanna convert you or sell you on anything. I just want you to know that it is possible to lose weight comfortably without all the mental fatigue and stress inducing nutrition nazi bullshyt.

Like Ive said times and time again... Conventional thinking gets you conventional results.

Do you use any supplements or is it all Natural?

Well I just got finished with my first week of IF.(thank god I found this thread) The first day was super hard but i got through it and didn't cheat, I just sipped on water all night. Again I work overnight 7 on 7 off so at night Im moving around the hospital so its easy to get hungry.

Also I don't binge during my feeding window, I find it easier to eat 2 small meals instead of one big one along with my whey protein shakes. My calorie intake deficiency has to be under 2300 to lose weight and i'm well under that daily. The eating part is actually easy. I was already working out daily in the gym since mid may but over the last week I incorporated HIIT and it was hard at first but it's getting easier so I steady increase my speed. The difference is I work out every other day now.

I also do moderate weightlifting, mostly dumbbell arm curls, and bench press incline. My question is should I continue with the weightlifting? I'm really trying to burn the most fat and loose more weight but I would like to tone my muscles as well. I appreciate any advice.

Since May, I definitely see the difference in my face and even my stomach is going down, staying off that salt and limiting the sweets. At one point I was 288, Im down to 240, and now that I'm taking my eating lifestyle serious and with working out, I know I can get to my goal of 200. Reading some of the stories in this thread has motivated me even more to continue with IF.

How your progress thus far im about 250 but want to get down to 200 even.

I know this is an old post but can you tell me what your diet consists of also what your workout schedule like/what workouts do you do.

The best results come from strength training, keep cardio to a minimal maybe 2-3 days a week

High Protein is always the best option so i reccomend buying a Whey Isolate protein shake.. And eat alot of meat, healthy fats, and moderate carbs.. drink the protein shake after every meal to get full

I'm currently doing a Keto-IF so I'm doing low carbs and high protein and fat
Just to experiment it's had good results but I don't see myself sticking with this after a month... I'm thinking of incorporating it at least 2 weeks out of every month

Remember to count your calories within your IF window

So official nutritionists and doctors and proof is bro science?

Wanna know what bro science is? The official food pyramid, weight watchers, jenny craig, ect.

Since the 60s, weve been told that fat is bad for u and u need to eat low fat and more carbs. 40 years later, our country is one of the top countries with obesity and diebetes.

fukk outta here with bro science. My fatber in law been doing keto for 2 years now and hasnt needed to touch any insulin med and lowered all his levels to bascially being diebetic free when he was on the verge of losing his toes.

Bro science

So what do you typically eat and whats your eating/workout schedule?
