Huge fasting fan here. I fully agree it is a black listed topic. Regrettably.

Only in the main forums. There are discussions about fasting in Groups. Try joining in one of the intermittent fasting groups or the OMAD group (one meal a day.)

The main forums are Vanilla. No pun intended, but they are mainstream, count calories, do some exercise, keep it simple type forums. The various groups keep things sane. The guidelines will explain if you want to take a look:

depends what you mean by fasting.

autumnjo above you just meant a 4 hour eating window per day and worded it as her personal preference for herself - now that isnt for me but isnt the sort of thing that gets pushback from other MFP'ers

Things like fasting for 48 to 72 hours - and making absurd unsubstantiated claims about it - yes, that does.

So in a three week period you didn’t eat for seven days? That doesn’t seem healthy especially since you’re probably under eating at 1500 on the other days.
