Near Fast for one day

Seabassx2

Thanks for all the comments. Someone asked why? Quite simply I want to lose some weight. I think it will be interesting to push some limits to see what it happens. My goal is to lose 2 lbs per week.

Nearly fasting for one day won’t do anything for fat loss. Maybe some water weight. A real test of pushing yourself would be to eat at a small caloric deficit over a long period of time to slowly and safely lose weight that will stay off because you’ve taught your body what it actually needs instead of starve/binge extremes.

You need a deficit of 7000 calories to lose 2lb. Unless you normally eat 7000 calories per day, "nearly" fasting for one day will not get you to your goal.

Or you’ll lose water weight and food weight and then immediately put it back on the moment you eat something.

The fast of today is often followed by the binge of tomorrow.

Sounds grim and unsustainable. I lose 2lb per week eating way more than that. Suffering does not burn more calories! Eat more - you're far more likely to stick to your eating plan long-term.
