Life Intermittent Fasting - Page 16

Anyone have any experience doing this? I plan to start on Monday.

I have researched it quite a bit and am willing to give it a try. I will probably do the 16:8 plan. Sixteen hours fasting, eight hour window to eat. My plan, and it will probably change, is to eat two meals totaling around 1600 calories between 11 AM-7PM. I plan on drinking a shit ton of water to help and possible supplement an occasional caffeine pill in the morning.

So I'm doing a pretty strict diet with my 8:16

I'm on a bunch of supplements, then I have two means a day that consists of 4oz protein, 4 oz of fruit, and 4 oz of veg. I can also add a bunch of free veg like spinach, lettuce, red onion, and mushrooms. So I basically make a mess of sautéed onions and mushrooms every night. I also do kryothreapy (SP?) once a day, which supposably burns 500-800 calories a session. Drink only water (like 150 oz a day), so I' pretty sure my body is saying something like, WTF, I guess we have to burn the fat today.

How long is a Kryotherapy session? What does it cost?

FWIW, I sleep a lot through my fasting. Big reason is that I can get a migraine in the eyes when I don't eat for a day. Best to sleep through those.

I take a few days off.

This thread would've most definitely be located in the Pics forum if that was the case

Max is 3 mins.

I think they do an entry level rate at $25 bucks per session or something.

Yeah who knows. I'm sure my diet and fasting contributes more to weight loss than freezing my ass off.

I’m going to finish my water only fast at 8 days today. I feel very energetic today even though I haven’t eaten any food for 8 days. So far I’ve lost around 17lbs but I’m sure I’ll gain a few back once I eat.

I also feel very refreshed and my body feels light. I’m going to break my fast with some real beef broth and a juiced mix of greens/plain yogurt. I’ll have some thin soup later after that with some fruit. I’ll be able to eat normal stuff tmrw such as a yummy salad and work my way to a steak Sunday.

Water fasting is interesting stuff!

Im on day 12 for my 16:8 intermittent fasting - I'm down 20 lbs on that. Overall down 30 lbs since Feb 14. I have plenty to lose, but the intermittent fasting has been remarkable.

I have been messing around with it and have lost 40 lbs in 5 months. It really has worked for me.

It sounds like it would be difficult, but with my schedule its perfect. I'm pissed I didn't look into this sooner.

who would have thought that skipping a meal would lead to weight loss? Crazyness!

Mine too, I normal eat lunch at 1, so morning fasting gave me an easy window

I eat very irregular. I skip many meals especially when I am busy. Most of the time I usually eat only dinner. Idle time is when I catch myself snacking and eating more with no discipline. I will never remove from my diet whole milk, I can drink the living shit out of some milk.
