Use this so you don't fast overnight, oh the horrors
Ironically I drank some casein last night and I never drink casein. I thought of this poster as I was drinking it.
I mixed it with whole milk and I could have eaten it with a spoon. That stuff is ridiculous.
that's called pudding.
what's more alarming is the number of posts you've made. holy *kitten* balls. that's a lot of genius spreading right there.0 -

I know. Abs taking over the world.....thank you baby Geebus.0 -
when you fast, your body eats itselft. it eats the fat that's stored in your body. it's not stupid, it's smart.
your body will eat muscle as well. probably more muscle than fat. that's not anywhere close to smart. but i'm not nearly as smart as some.0 -
Ugh let the bro science begin
I fast. I am not dead. My muscle isn't wasting away (I've actually gained some). I've also lost fat. I don't need to shovel food in my mouth all day to keep my own sanity.
There is a wealth of evidence out there that short bouts of fasting is not only great for weight loss, but also great for long term health. Look into it.0 -
there are different types of fasting
they have different purposes
and the duration of the fast varies
proper fasting can have many benefits
but i assume what you are talking about is starving or consuming a large deficit in order to loose weight
yes that is stupid because it is firstly unhealthy physically for your body and secondly will promote developing an unhealthy relationship with food which will lead to ocd tendencies.
I was hoping this point would be made... Thank you.0 -

A few hours ago, I started yet another 24 hour fast. I don't tell others to fast, but for me, it has benefits. For those who care, below is a blog I wrote about my experience with IF a couple months after I started IF. For those who don't like IF, no biggie...its certainly not for everyone...many folks just don't have the mental toughness for it because you don't appreciate how easy it can be once you stop fretting about it. For those like the OP who are just plain ignorant about the potential benefits of IF and think they know everything...welcome to the internet where you can find someone who knows everything about everything...and then someone else who knows everything to the contrary
I don't pretend to know everything and I don't pretend to believe my way is right for anyone else. I only know why I do things my way and that my way works for me

A new stud at Berkley shows that intermittent fasting can reduce the risk of all types of cancer and also the amount of insulin resistance a person has. Sounds healthy to me...0

Martin Berkhan has a pretty good collection of studies at www.leangains.com.
Do you have a link to the study you're referring to above?0 -

Can I report the OP for being offensive and trolling? I find his "thoughts" offensive even though he's way off base and doesn't know enough about fasting to make a particular sound arguement.0

^ Shouldn't you be practicing your muscle-ups?Can I report the OP for being offensive and trolling? I find his "thoughts" offensive even though he's way off base and doesn't know enough about fasting to make a particular sound arguement.
Was it the complete lack of context and sweeping generalizations that you found incorrect?
In closing: Posting in a troll thread.0 -
You got a fasting car. And I want a ticket to anywhere.0
