Good Morning Everyone
I have been ADF for about two weeks and I wanted to share my weight loss process, and was hoping to others progress. I stared by reading the "1 day diet" from Amazon also and while doing research watch EAT, FAST, LIVE LONGER. I did the the 1 day diet for four days drinking only proteins waters every 2 hours, but that was HARD! so on my third fasting day I tried picking my own foods up to 500 cals, using mostly rich cakes (45 cal each and good sized), and I could get them salty or sweet. That was so much easier! I think for two reasons, one i didn't have to watch the clock for every two hours, I didn't have to eat until I really need it and I could take my mind off food or eatting all together. Anyway heres my results:
Starting weight 273 lbs
Day 1 - 1st fast (protein waters) next morning weighted in at 268 lost 5lbs mostly water weight
Day 2 - Normal day next morning weighted in at 267 lost 1 lbs, eat totally normal!
Day 3 - 2nd fast (protein waters) next morning weighted in at 265 lbs lost 2 lbs
Day 4 - Thanksgiving next morning weight in 265 lbs
Day 5 - Couldn't resist thanksgiving left overs so no fasting next morning weigh in 266
Day 6, Day 7, Day 8 - no fasting, no dieting, no watching what I eat! weighted in at 270 the next morning gained 5 lbs
Day 9 - Fast ( only 500 cal using rice cakes) next morning weight in 268 lbs lost 2 lbs
Day 10 - Normal eating day, next morning weight in 268
Day 11 - Fast (500 cal) next morning weight in 264 lost 4 lbs
Day 12 - Normal eating , next morning weight in 264 1 lbs
Day 13 - Fast (500 cal) , next morning weight in 263 lbs
Day 14 - Fast (500 cal) , next morning weight in 263 lbs no lost
Day 15 - Normal , next morning weight in 263 lbs
Day 16 - Fast (500 cal) next morning weight in 262 , lost 1 lbs
Day 17 - Normal, next morning weight in 262
Day 18 - Fast (500 cal) , next morning weight in 261
Day 19 - Normal, next morning weight in (This morning, today) 263 , gained 2 lbs

I started to see a pattern after I dropped the all the water weight on the first two fasting days, it was about 1 lbs after a fasting day and not weight gain or lost on normal days. Yesterday was an exception because I don't normal work out at all, and I ended up dancing for 2 hours with my kids, so that kinda counts as a workout.
I am going to keep going, but maybe I will stop weight myself every day, I just need to know that what I am doing is work, and it looks like it is. And at a good rate. in 18 days i went from 273 to 261 that's a total of 12 lbs.
I plan on trying to do some form of exercise each day. I will keep everyone posted on my progress.

I do fasting as well, and it seems to work well. I usually eat less calories M-F, about 600-900 calories a day, and I fast from 1pm to 1pm 2 days out of the week. I eat whatever I want on the weekends, and so far this seems to do the trick.

I'm still digging through all of the posts, but does anyone (still following this) have any experience/anecdotes about IF/ADF with keto?

I used to do something similar to alternate day fasting... I basically ate very low cals Monday to Friday, and would on average eat 900 cals a day.. then on weekends I'd eat what I wanted, literally anything & everything. I lost weight, a lot of it and very quickly - 4 stone in 4 months.

Admittedly, it's now 12 months later and I've gained 6 stone. I soon lost some willpower and when Sunday was over I wouldn't get back to 'fasting' during the week, and so days off would spiral on and on, and here I am - 6 stone heavier.

I'm torn between doing my old regime again, or just plain old calorie counting & sticking to a set limit of 1500 a day. I'm a very impatient person so I would like to lose the weight as quickly as possible, but I more than anything want to keep it off.. so it's a toughie.

I could probably manage 500 calories, I think.. But how many days would I fast for & how many days off would I have?

bumping

Bump as I've just started today doing alternate day fasting. 500 cals on down days and up to 1500 on feast days.

I do. I can generally get about 1500 calories in about 15 minutes. To get 2000 it takes another hour or 2

Bump for later

I have been doing ADF for a few weeks now (not always religiously!) And I was wondering what everyone's opinion of eating back exercise calories on fast days was? Does that defeat the purpose of the fast and therefore it's health benefits or not? Any opinions would be greatly appreciated
