Hello all,
I'm doing the Fat Fast next week. My weight keeps going up and down the same 2lbs the last few weeks so I need to do something to change it up. Here is what I was going to eat, let me know your thoughts and suggestions. I like to keep it as simple as possible since I'm on the road a lot I need something quick and simple to eat.


Garlicky Creamed Mushrooms -•8 ounces sliced mushrooms, •2 ½ tablespoons butter, •2 tablespoons Boursin cheese (this is two servings/not one)

Sausage & Eggs -•1 ounce pork sausage & •1 egg cooked in pork grease

1 ounce macadamia nuts

1 ounce of tuna or chicken with 2 teaspoons mayonnaise

2 ounces pâté

2 egg yolks hard-boiled with one tablespoon of mayonnaise

4 slices cooked bacon

2 tablespoons natural peanut butter & 1 large rib celery 7"

1/2 ounce pork rinds, 1/4 cup sour cream & 1 tablespoon grated parmesan cheese


Each line item is served as one meal, 5 times a day. Since I'm down to my last 10-12 lbs I'm going to try this for 3 days and see how it goes. What do you think?

    This almost looks like the way I eat on extended induction period. Send your results when you're done :smile:

    that is awesome! I'm hoping to be back down 3 more lbs but I'd be totally happy with more too.

    So today is day 3 of my Fat Fast. I am down a total of 2.5lbs in two days, not to bad. I'm feeling much better about my weightloss with this little boost.

    Right on, use the fat fast as a tool, after 4 days I just could not take it anymore, but 6 pounds was enough to get me well off of my platue i was on, good to hear your scale is moving down

    Wow. I'm starting this today after plateauing for 3 weeks. I have set up my goal macros to track it and will put them back when I am done. 3 - 4 days should be enough...

    My day 1 went well. 2 lbs, but I had a day or two off my atkins plan this week, so some of this may be water again. Looking forward to another 2 days of this plan, then will up my calories. Going for a run this morning!

    I'm starting tomorrow. A little nervous about getting my macros correct though. What do you all typically have for breakfast?

    I do Bulletproof coffee for breakfast (Coffee with 1Tbls Heavy Cream, 1 Tbls Butter, 1 Tbls Coconut Oil). Or, 2 eggs cooked in some butter or oil. Or, 2 hard boiled eggs made into Devilled Eggs with 1Tbls Mayo and 1 tsp yellow mustard.

    Do 5 small 200 calorie meals!

    I do BPC now most mornings. Two tbls grassfed butter, 2 tbls MCT oil and then blend with a hand beater. So good and creamy.

    I'm so used to eating protein with most meals that I'll have to just forget about that and pile on the fat. :)

    Thanks!

    First day today. Had my BPC coffee this morning. Then a serving of Macadamia nuts around 10. It's 11:30 and I'm starving. Trying to wait as long as I can until I eat again.

    Check out my food diary for Mon through Third this week, I did the fast fat again. Exactly 1000 calories on most days.

    Wow. Thank you. Checking it out. I was just under 1200 calories yesterday for my first Fat Fast Day. And today looks like I'll do the same. But I was still down 1 pound this morning. So that's awesome.

    However, I'm wondering too if it has mostly to do with the amount of calories, not fat that we're consuming that causes the extreme weight loss.
