Did the egg fast for 5 days. Went from 163.8 to 155.4!! I've been off it for two days and this morning I'm down to 154.4! I've been super careful with carb intake and still try to keep a high fat intake! After Christmas I think I'll do a 3 day fast! Any other fasts out there that others had a good experience with?

    I have done a fat fast when my diet is mainly fat, usually bullet proof coffee, for a day or too.

    I tend to only eat BPC in the morning and early afternoon so it is sort of like a fat intermittent fast. Sort of.

    Wow, that's impressive! I've only done it for a 2-day span (and it was more of a fat fast but egg-heavy), but I was happy with how it got my weight loss kick-started again.

    I like any kind of fast, but I have never done a fat fast or an egg fast. I typically fast daily for 23 hours and eat for 1, or less than one hour. But I have done fasts with BPC or more recently water fasts for up to 3 days.

    Your weigh loss is awesome!

    I've done intermittent fasting, almost daily, by having coffee with hwc and water until 4pm and will have a four hour eating window to have supper... Is also considered one meal a day (OMAD). I continue eating LCHF during the "window".

    @DittoDan has been successful with water fasts. I'm.glad he chimed in! His blogs are definitely worth the read!

    @Kitnthecat Did you see good results following the BPC fast?

    @Christine, yes I did usually see a loss while fasting with one large BPC in the morning, but results were more dramatic with water fasting. I must get back into my routine after Christmas.
