For me its a like most of you. Mild Depression(if it's a DEEP depression I don't eat) Boredom Stress Anxiety Sleeplessness I've been going through a very rough patch in my personal life. I was down to 237lbs with fasting and regular exercise. The emotional stress caused me to lose sleep, high stress drove my anxiety…

Well, I just got back on my fasting and exercise program after some personal issues caused a spike in depression and lack of motivation. So far I dropped 3lbs after 1 24 period of not eating and going to the gym. I had breakfast today and going to the gym at 6pm CST. I will eat again tomorrow probably after 36 hours…

Aug Start Weight:254.4 Aug Goal Weight:230 Ultimate Goal Weight:190 Aug 1:254.4 Aug 8:254.4 Aug 15:244.2 Aug 22: Aug 29: Aug 31: I am currently down another 10lbs from my 5 day fast. Now for this next week is to maintain this weight with IF and let my body adjust to its new weight and calorie requirement.

https://www.youtube.com/c/drekberg Dr. Ekberg. A reduction in your Body Mass happens as you lose weight overall. BMI is your weight in pounds divided by your height in inches squared, then multiplied by 703. It's a rough indicator of how much fat mass you have. The calculation can be affected by Age, Race, Sex and Muscle…

Also, I forgot to mention. That your body will adapt and adjust to the new lower calorie intake over time and make that your new normal. I think its called Thermogenesis I could be wrong. So Calorie in vs Calorie out will stop working over time since your body adjusts and makes the new lower calorie intake (going from 2000…

This is for lean adults. We are not lean. So from what I gather is that alternate day fasting along with a energy restriction(eating less) on non fasting days was effective. No fasting while using energy restriction was effective. However, alternate day fasting with no energy restriction did next to nothing. Also, I can…

Ya Physical Therapy for my leg injury. It's gotten stronger but it's not quite there yet. Yes Tea upsets my stomach. It has something in it I forgot what it was called though. It's beneficial but some people do experience nausea when drinking green tea while fasting. I got really sick after drinking green tea on my fast.…

Ya being tired or lack of sleep can be from carb/sugar withdraw. Also, doing keto can cause a bit of insomnia in the beginning but the body will adjust to it. At least that's how it was for me. The lack of sugar/carbs made me irritable, restless and anxious. The thing I noticed the most with fasting vs IF is that my…

The 1st two weeks I spent doing my IF schedule of 16/8 and I kept off all but 1.6lbs from my July weight loss. Which I am extremely happy with! I found that doing…

Congrats!!! I have 2 during my 8 hour window normally. Brunch/lunch and then dinner about 4 hours apart to allow the insulin level to drop. Some days I just snack the entire 8 hours. What is most important is the 16 hours of not eating after your eating window has closed. =) If you are a late night grazer/snacker you can…

Hey KDD23, Good job on the weight loss so far! I have to say that late night snacking is a bit of an issue for me as well. I can normally avoid it when I'm on my regular 16/8 schedule however, I find it difficult not to do after coming off of a fast or after a heavy workout session where I just feel famished even after…

I'm doing a variation of OMAD, Keto and Carnivore with Fasting. I've done two 3day fasts this month and lost about 16lbs by doing so. I do light exercise but it was mostly my Fasting days that helped me to lose weight and doing IF of 16/8 or eating once (sometimes I eat lunch then don't eat till the next day since I'm not…

I didn't install the app for my scale until the 15th of July but I remember my weight being 267 when I first weighed myself. I can take screenshots of my phone to verify the numbers. I got injured of Feb 2020 which required 2 surgeries to correct. During that time I put on a substantial amount of weight. I am still going…

Hello, I am Jason. I'm 5'10 34 years old and I have been doing Keto/Carnivore/IF/Fasting for about a month straight now. I have no known medical conditions but I am severely overweight and according to my BMI chart I am obese. I joined MFP as a way to watch my caloric intake in hopes that I would start to reduce my weight.…

https://jamesclear.com/reader-mailbag-intermittent-fasting Here is something to help. I've heard more than100 calories breaks a fast. More than 50 calories breaks a fast. Personally I haven't really noticed much of an impact. I was drinking cream in my coffee and still managed to lose weight with IF during my fasting…

Thank you forestfreek!
