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. [Reply]

2nd day was a bit tough but on the whole fairly comfortable.
Go right in with some Taco Bell, really clean that shit out [Reply]

yep..when i fast, i eat nothing and drink only water.
i use the bulletproof stuff when i am out of my fast.
first time i did it, i was amazed how much better I felt after 3 days... [Reply]

How in the hell...?
easier than it sounds
the key for me to kick off my fast is to eat my last meal, no later than 7pm
then start the clock
its easier to wake up the next day and start drinking water. By the afternoon, i can feel my body shift to burning fat and my energy level kicks up quite a bit. [Reply]
