Is fasting the fucking future of weightloss?? There seem to be

I tried Intermittent Fasting for a while and I have to say it really worked for me. I appreciated food much more, had less chances of gorging on junk because I needed to relish my meals, I drank more water and when I was not eating like a bull for a bulk, I lost 3 lbs in two weeks just by restricting eating times. Sounds pretty good in theory.

Heard it has adverse effects on women, though, that it screws with their menstrual cycle and stuff. is that true?

>>42194486
Hmm, interesting, i cant imagine why it would be like that. From and evolutionary POV it would make sense that women are also perfectly capable of having periods of no food. My gf does IF quite often, buts shes got a coil so her cycle doesnt make sense anyway, cant tell wether the IF has influence on it.

>>42194486
As far as i read now, missed periods isnt caused by the period of non eating, but rather by the fact that they dont eat enough. When you eat only 1 or 2 meals a day the chances of deficiencies obviously become much larger.

>>42194568
my gf is trying to lose weight and when she saw what I was doing she researched it a bit and got spooked by the claimed risk of anticipated menopause and stuff like that. I couldn't find any research to disprove this, do you have a source I could use?

[spoiler]she's gonna start lifting next week, hoping I can make her stick to it through her insecurities. She's afraid to disappoint me and to appear weak because I've been training hard for three years now and I'm in a fairly decent shape while she kinda let herself go with uni. Fuck this blogpost, just wish her and me luck /fit/[/spoiler]

>my gf is trying to lose weight and when she saw what I was doing she researched it a bit and got spooked by the claimed risk of anticipated menopause and stuff like that. I couldn't find any research to disprove this, do you have a source I could use?
Well, there is no source that proves this, so there obviously also isnt a source that disproves it. Thats kinda like asking an atheist to disprove god.

I did 3 days. Make sure you get your electrolytes. You can die if you don't. Also I still took vitamins, fish oil, and some Mct oil to help adjust.

>>42194707
Arent electrolyets allready present in your body? How did all those people in the past fasting for 30 days do it then? Im fairly sure they had no clue what electrolyets are.

>>42194740
I've done it twice and the first time without I got super weak and dizzy. May just be me. Both times a felt pretty good after.

I've heard of people doing 30 days under medical supervision. I think that is a little fucking crazy. Im doing sat sun mon this weekend.

>>42194779
People in the past did it all the time. Greeks did it, romans did it, Ghandi also did 30 day fasts quite often.

Also, how did you know that the dizzyness was caused by a lack of electrolytes? And how much water did you drink?

>>42194799
Drank about a gallon of water each day on both. Did a little research and found that supplementing sodium can help. Before you do this ask your doctor too. They will probably tell you its stupid but just ask them if you are physically fit to do it.

>>42194459
what is your fasting schedule?

>>42194821
I actually study nutrition so my knowledge on nutrition should easily exceed that of a doctor.

>>42194831
Lol true. Doctors get a fucking 1 day course on average on nutrition. Its fucking mind blowing.

>>42194830
I do IF a couple of days a week, i dont tend to stress about windows, i just dont eat breakfast or lunch and than i eat from dinner up until i go to bed. I also try to do more prolonged fasting. Just did my first 36 hour fast, which went great. I guess i want to do atleast 1 prolonged fast a month, and try to push it to around 50 hours. I also want to try doing a fast for longer than 3 days to get the immune system reset and my body to properly clean up scar tissue etc. But i havents tried all that yet.

>>42194459
>Future

It's just the latest meme. After all the fad diets, the juice diets, the detox diets, now it's fasting's turn, specifically WF and IF.

It'll be replaced with something else eventually though. The key to weight loss will always be cico no matter how you wanna dress it up. Di whatever works for you as long as it's safe and sustainable.

>>42194831
Nutrition is a poor science full of bad studies and highly manipulative data.

>>42194459
>Is fasting the fucking future of weightloss?? There seem to be so so much advantages.
>>less loose skin
>>less muscle loss
>>less hunger
isn't fasting basically starving yourself though?
redpill me please

>>42194459
Do people who fast here abstain from what exactly? Food or food/water, or literally anything going in your mouth?

>>42194676
>there is no source that proves this
This. It's on the person making the claim to bear the burden of proof. Basic logical fallacy.

>>42194929
No that's exactly what it is. It used to be done for spiritual reasons, but it's now done for narcissistic ones. Once again, just like with Yoga, the whites have ruined something.

No calories or sweeteners idealy. So water, black coffee and some teas are ok.

>>42194459
I enjoy IF when cutting, tried it out for a month for a test, and lost around 3kilo and gained strength. Did both low carb/high fat - Low fat/high carbs.

>>42194947
100% wrong. Also if youre a shitskin feel free to go back to whatever mudhole you crawled out from.

Untrained people lost 5% of their muscle mass with 2 weeks of fasting. 5% is a huge number in untrained individuals.
It doesnt not give less flabby skin, and the hormonal benefit may not apply to trained individuals, who already get a bigger hormonal response from training.

The issue here isis that the studies are done on normal, sedentary people. Even hot sauna will look like aaddiction wonderdrug on people who doesnt experience proper stress. You can make anything look awesome if you dont compare it to anything.
Fuck this fasting hype.

>>42195012
>Untrained people lost 5% of their muscle mass with 2 weeks of fasting
Show souce
Also no one is arguing the biggest benefit is for people who are fat already. IF youre already a very trained individual than extended fasting probably wont benefit you. No shit.

>>42194998

Body composition isn't the only reason to do something.

>>42195012

Yeah dude because when people talk about fasting they mean doing it for two fucking weeks straight.

>>42195017
Please elaborate how fasting teaches long term weight maintance and healthy habits? It doesnt. Its a fad diet. Just like a juice diet, or any other fad diets. And thats why they all fail in the long run.

>>42195063
>Please elaborate how fasting teaches long term weight maintance and healthy habits?
I never said it did. You are viewing it as 1 vs the other. Why not both? Fasting is a tool that can be implemented while also cleaning up your diet in general for the long run. They aren't mutually exclusive pea brain.
>And thats why they all fail in the long run

>>42194999

>>42195053
The higher the caloric deficit the bigger the muscle loss is. It doesnt matter if you have a break or not.

The reason why all fad diets fail is because they dont teach long term weight maintance or change of lifestyle.
Any diet can lose weight. Even the most retarded one. If you want to know what the result of a diet with a big deficit then look at anorexic people.

>>42194958
As usual the whites are threatened by any form of criticism. Mindfulness, TM, there's nothing that whites won't take and then try to apply to their own shallow lives.

>>42194959
It absolutely is when you are taking what is a deep spiritual commitment and the only thing you want from is is a flatter stomach. Let's not pretend this new fascination with fasting is about self improvement. It's about people who have seen others lose weight very quickly and want that for themselves, the focus is purely on outer aesthetics in the shortest time possible but are too poor for surgery.

I don't think the fasting fad will last forever though. Unless some famous white actress or "doctor" writes a book about its benefits that they can sell to the masses for profit.

>>42195087

Who said theres a deficit?

>>42195012
Reading comprehension FFS. We are talking about INTERMITTENT fasting here. Plus of course they're gonna lose muscle mass if they are untrained, you must "send a signal" to your body that you need to keep that muscle mass while you cut, and that is done by lifting weights.

>>42194882
This is true
For me, coffee for breakfast, chicken and broccoli at lunch, then some other low carb shit for dinner kept me sated, and I actually wanted to eat it. Lost fat, lifts didn't go down.
Did get cramps. Tried to get some electrolytes because there what plants crave.
Go to buy a Gatorade expected it would have like 200% or more daily value. Turns out it has like 20% sodium only 4% potassium... But 30+ g sugar

>>42195088
Seriously, nigger? EVERYONE has adopted watered down and shallow copies of white culture in all countries that aren't still hitting each other with rocks.

Can someone explain fasting to me?
Because it seems like I have been fasting for a while without even noticing.

It's called metabolic acidosis, the best you can do to prevent it is drinking water with sodium bicarbonate.

>>42195088
>fukken whiteboi crackas, why they be so stupid
>why are all you whiteys feeling attacked

>also, implying pooinloos invented the idea of fasting for spiritual reasons

Fasting has become popular because people are coming around to the idea of living the way the human body is designed and evolved to handle, not because you want your imaginary friend to think you're a real cool dude.

>>42194882
Fasting has a pretty long record of health benefits as back as antiquity.

>>42194947

>>42194799
yea imbalance electrolytes will cause dizziness n altered mental status. stdy medicine in collage.

>>42194937
nothing else but water and a coffee the morning can help.

You can't survive without water.
It's said that you can survive 40 days without food.

Usually, people start to die on the 50th day of starving.

>>42194929
Don't forget your increased hair loss ;)

Anyone modified fasting?

>milk and honey allowed in tea/coffee within reason
>fresh fruits and veg allowed

I regularly get 2-3 days like this. Using it now to correct from a 5-day vacation binge (I was hiking/swimming several hours a day so it wasn't too bad on net calories.) Also helps to sexualise the hunger pangs and/or have some interesting work to distract yourself. If I'm working on something I don't even notice that I'm hungry.

Fasting is the only way to purge the sugar cravings after eating shit like donuts or ice cream. After a fast I lose all cravings.

>>42198038
Ok, we have an anecdote of a bad case, that doesnt mean much. For real tho, how hard did you fast and what was your starting weight, i never heard of anyone having medical issues, and 16/8 isnt really far from normal eating

IF is GOAT-tier. One week when i don't have work i would like to try fasting the whole week just to see if i have any willpower. Then its time for OATSSSSSSSSSSSS

Yes it is! Currently fasting for around 21-30 days to help lose weight very fast, and help heal scar tissue, clear my skin, and help sort of restart my immune system. Just drinking water though.

>>42194676
That's not how science works at all.

>>42194799
Many more as well. Crusaders would fast 1-3 days right before battle. Spoiler alert: They won a lot battles.

>>42205431
your going to want to stimulate your muscles enough to tell your body to preserve muscle mass. For this I found that bodyweight training or 5x12 very light weight for a few exercises. don't push yourself, you shouldn't be breaking a sweat even.

>>42205542
what day are you on? how have you managed to fight the hunger? have you seen any results?

>>42205925
Hunger will stop after day 2.5/3. Day one is the hardest.

The best way to fast is to do it until you feel hunger naturally again, then start with something light like tomato/carrot juice for the first day to get things going again.

It is possible for a human to go without any substance for over a year, this has been documented and studied.

382 is the length of Angus Barbieris fast. The doctors gave him potassium and multi vitamin pills.

>>42204865
He's true.
The first 2-3 days of fasting are awfull, you feel sick, have headache... But once you pass that, hunger totally disappear, you don't feel the need to eat, and your mind is completely cool.
It makes you think a lot about your relation with food.
You don't see hunger the same way after that.

>>42206738
Wow, hang on, the survive rate for a man doing a hunger-strike is an average of 50 days, doctors are here to follow them, and take notes.

>>42207575
Well, you do need to take in account that this man was a British lard ass.

How many hours a day should I be fasting for IF? I've been currently doing 12. Do I need to hit 16?

Indirectly, you answered one of the question i was wondering : if a normal/fit body can survive 50/60 days, how many times can survive a fat fuck?

>>42208955
when I did IF I went with 16 hours fasting and an 8 hour eating window and it worked well for me. 12 seems a bit too close to just every day life imo

>>42194459
I'd like to hope that there is no future of weight loss and that people, eventually learn to be healthy at apl stages of life and teach their children to do the same.
But that's an ideal and most fat asses are lazy as all hell. Eventually pharmaceuticals will become cheap and effective to the point that you just take a bill that rases your metabolic rate. Or maybe something you take after you eat a lot of food that digests it and makes it harder for the body to take up. Think plan b but for dieting.

>>42205431
I do IF and PPLx2 and I break my fast after working out. I focus on 1 or 2 compounds at 3x5 then the accessories for 3x8-12 then cardio.

>>42208955
The benefits of fasting don't even kick in until 12 hours. The minimum for you to even be able to say you're doing IF is 14 hour fasts. I personally like 16/8

Fasting is based, I lost so much bodyfat over the last three months by eating one meal a day.

It's not a meme guys.

>>42211196
