What is /fast/? Fast is a thread for the discussion of intermittent fasting, fasting, water fasting, and fat fasting While fasting alone is fantastic for your health, Consider doing a ketogenic in addition to become god mode
>Didn't eat since yesterday evening( it's 13:00 right now) >Had workout and cardio >Still don't want to eat
Feeling fine tbqh, no hunger, no lightheadedness. What the fuck is even happening, i didn't even plan to fast.
Sebastian Smith
>25 hours
Time for bed soon brahs. Hopefully I can sleep...
Luis Wright
This is the magic of getting fully adjusted to fasts and getting a taste of what being a caveman was like
Ethan Torres
I've been only to fast for 12-14h, is this still fine?
Hudson Cook
how can you only fast for 14 hours? 12 hours is, at a small scale, medically significant, but that's lame by /fast/ standards
Austin Perez
Daily reminder trf kills test
Adam Rivera
Nigger we have 2 links in the OP try harder and if not go back to your kneeless vegan threads
Joshua Lewis
I'm a /fast/ing high carb vegan.
Cooper Cooper
AHAHAHAHAHAH FUCK OUTTA HERE BITCHBOI
THIS IS A CARNIVORE THREAD
Xavier Flores
What the hell are you screeching about?
Henry Green
reminder that breads, grains, and vegetables will have higher levels of PAHs and nitrates than ANY meat ever could
Bentley Brown
reasonably sure he called you a frail bitch (correct) and then told you to take your palor, and gauntness; and to get out of here because this is a thread for the righteous
Tyler Ward
Lost alot of weight on OMAD, feeling good
Nathan Carter
Any tips on increasing blood pressure while fasting? I have hilariously low BP (in the 'low' levels while fully fed and doing nothing strenuous) and every time I get to the 20ish hour mark I start to feel light headed and lose feeling in my extremities, so I have to eat since i have a history of passing out. I'm looking to do a 24-36 hour fast, but any tips on raising my BP during it?
Christopher Bailey
Did 8/16 for two weeks and switched to 4/20 for the past week. I definitely see the fat loss and I generally feel OK. Having said that, two days now I've started getting dizzy while working out, which I guess is due to low sugar levels. How do you guys counteract this issue?
The pussy answer is talk to a doctor but you can also just take some salt.
Jack Johnson
asked this in the previous thread:
I'm doing 21-3 IF. I work out every other day and have higher carbs on lifting days. Has anyone here tried zero or very low carb on rest days? My thinking was that I would keep my insulin levels low and spend more time in a fasted state. Feels good so far.
John Williams
started Snake Diet yesterday desu. Feeling good
Mason Evans
Get the snake oil faggots off my /fast/, REEEEEEEEEE!!!
Daniel Collins
>get the best fasting way out of fasting thread
Jayden Ross
It is objectively inferior to straight water fasting.
Ayden Harris
inferion in what way?
Jason Butler
>fasting >keto >nofap send help
Adrian Thompson
You're about to meet Jesus my dude, he's coming
Thomas Cox
Longterm water fasting yields better results, but if you are eating OMAD, just call it that. Don't use that pale nigger's branding term for something he didn't invent or discover.
Tyler Price
I see you have no idea what Snake Diet is
Jose Martin
Are you talking about that literal snake oil called "snake juice"? FFS, that's even worse.
Chase Evans
how is that worse? You literally have no idea what you are talking about.
Its prolonged fasting and the "snake juice" is just water with electrolytes so you dont feel like shit
Easton Rivera
anyone bulk using lean gains method fasting? any thoughts or tips?
Christopher Edwards
No snakes, no breakfast.
Parker Ward
Don't use that faggot's branding, then.
Jonathan Hall
I will use whatever I want and you need to read a book nigger. You keep talking about things while not knowing anything about them.
Carson Butler
>in fact, breads and cereals contribute the highest amount of PAHs to the average person's diet
Is that because they contain more PAHs or because the average person eats a fuckton more breads and cereals compared to grilled/charred meat?
Christian Walker
When doing OMAD, when do you guys eat you meal? Before or after gym? Do you still take protein before and after thise 2 hours in the gym?
Lucas Wright
I drink green tea and mate since i was very young, it is allowed to drink such beverages on a fasting day?
Jacob Sanders
I fast for like 17 at a time. Anything less and it's fucking weak
I can't wait to start cutting and do a 5/2 split. 2 30 hour fasts per week
Camden Thompson
Fairly new to /fast/. Been doing 20-4 a lot lately and have done a couple 36 hour water fasts and one 48 hour.
Just wondering about vitamins. Usually I take a multi, fish oil, pumpkin oil, saw palmetto, and biotin. I haven't had any issues with these effecting my stomach when not taken with food so far, but I've heard the effectiveness drops when not taken with food (you basically just piss it right out) and I would assume this would only be amplified while in a fasted state. Am I just wasting money taking vitamins while fasting, particularly the two oils?
I'm also concerned about the calories in the oils. Each capsule has 10 calories per. I've heard under 50 calories is nbd, but if I fast consistently I don't want to mess fasts up even a little bit especially if I'm barely absorbing.
So should I only take vitamins when I'm breaking a fast when doing 20-4 and not take them on longer fasts without food? Should I take the dry vitamins and skip the oils?
Caleb Collins
Just do potassium, salt, and magnesium. Zinc if you want for your short and long fasts. Take the oils when you eat again
Jordan Green
Can I still eat my boogers when fasting?
Jaxson Bennett
if you ingest protein than forget about maintaining low insulin since they are proven to spike it in similar fashion as carbs but probably depends on source (whey with water will create rather sharp increase in comparison to chicken meat)
Eli Jones
Completed 24h I just was to eat some peanut butter, it's keto right?
Joseph Diaz
Lol, no. Pretty weak willed senpai.
Ethan Fisher
God just cucumbers and peanut butter I'm not even fat, I just want to lose skinnyfat status
Brayden Gutierrez
>steroids
Carter Walker
I'm trying out zerocarb and EOD right now I have more than enough energy for lifting days followed by HIIT, I'm kinda chubby tho so it may just be keto coming out in force
Gluceoneogenesis knocking people out of keto is bullshit, read anything by shawn baker or amber o'hearn
Christopher Kelly
Eat a shitton, carnivore preferred, Shawn baker eats over 5 pounds of ribeye a day, lifts, holds lifting records, and stays pretty damn leadn at the age of 50, pic related
first of all i dont need to read anything from two people you have quoted (no offense), amber is in no way associated with any medical degree or even 'dietician' title, just a computer scientist who stumbled into nutrition territory and knows very little about it beyond 'her' journey, on the other hand baker seems to have a md. degree yet everything i google about him literally screams 'meme' and his interviews are in some clickbait-tier sites so i ll pass again , still no offense. Now back to the topic: >Gluceoneogenesis knocking people out of keto is bullshit first of all i never said it does nor i mentioned gluconeogenesis, you simply assumed this, you need to grasp how endocrine system works.What i said is that by ingesting protein you WILL spike insulin since not only simple sugars do but also proteins or rather certain amino acids.Now you have to remember that if insulin is increased it downregulates everything else as hormonal response and there is no avoiding it.Since insulin IS one of body most anabolic hormones it shifts balance from catabolism into anabolism either you want it or not, either you HAVE sugar in blood or not, BUT, since there is nothing in your bloodstream to store (in case of fast, if you are doing keto then fat goes into fat cells while protein are turned into sugar) you place your body into brief (around 2-4h depending on your insulin turnover) state of catabolic limbo until it returns to its basal fasted state.Gluconeogenesis is inefficient way of our body to create sugar from proteins (in case of food abundance) and does not happen as abruptly to create insulin spike on its own as ingestion of pure sugar, its a linear progress.
Henry Richardson
I've been on OMAD for a while. Didn't even know it was considered fasting. Can I not eat Saturday and Sunday (48 hours) and end up fine as long as I take muh vitamins and iodine?
Ethan Reyes
I have failed you. I ate three spoonfuls of peanut butter and 2 avocadoes
Kevin Gonzalez
Way too much salt and not enough lemon juice. The potion doest have to taste like shit
Jason Morris
Make sure you get enough sodium and potassium as well.
Jason Howard
Will I lose all my muscles?
Jason Sullivan
there is no failure try again
David Williams
didnt even bother to watch the video but why the hell would you need some mixture for a fast?i went on 5 days fast drinking water and eating salt, why would you bother trying to complicate things?does it help?
Jaxon Baker
goin for a 3 day dry fast yolo
Jayden Perez
You got BTFO faggot.
Nolan Harris
Ignore the moron. Even if what he says is true it doesn't even come close to outweighing all the positives to eating plants. There are far more negatives to eating animal products.
Jason Reed
>tfw you're a /fast/bro but everyone else in here is a ketard lunatic
Carson Hall
Currently on day 2 of fast. I'm getting slightly increased heart rate, feeling super lethargic and definitely hungry. Is this normal?
Bentley Fisher
Holy fucking shit what an assblasted manlet
Ian Smith
Your body is screaming for carbs right now.
Nathaniel Miller
I need serious, serious motivation to fast for a week this month. I just really need a boost toward my bday goals. I want to be attractive by my bday. What can I do to prepare?
Zachary Martinez
All my best motivation just comes from being honest with myself. See if any of this applies to you. >I'm objrctively disgusting when naked >I have nobody to come home to >I don't like myself for what I've allowed myself to turn into >I interpret my overweight past as a characte flaw >very, very lonely.
Ayden Lewis
a 5 day fast will kill every and any potential precancerous cells in your body, will kill your old senscent immune and possibly even organ cells and thusly regenerate them, you will reduce your fasting insulin levels, your liver will start to regenerate and your brain will clean itself out of bad cells and junk proteins that can cause ALS, MS, and alzheimers
good luck user!
Also, huge as HGH boost
Daniel Brooks
Aside from that >1/1/2017 : 250 >11/2/2017 : 203.4 Paused a bit over the last few months, stable at 210, goal is 180 by 1/1/2018. My new years resolution is to love myself senpai.

bit of widely available knowledge hurt your feefees?get a grip.
Joseph Sanchez
Fucking ASCII checkboxes aren't showing up. :[
Joseph Cook
I like to toot the ganj, how do I stop the munchies duing my fasting period?
Grayson Hall
>senscent immune
What's that?
Isaiah Morgan
You sperged out and wrote a thesis whereas I was simply helping an user on his /fast/ing journey. There's a lot of information out there and information and paradigms change, it has already been recently proven that protein intake from meat does NOT significantly spike blood glucose and the introduction of insulin is dependent on the content of the meal consumed, and assuming keto, not a big deal. You said that user would not be able to maintain a low-insulin state doing ZC or keto along with IF, which is false because keto alone can cause a 71% reduction in insulin, spiking only at meals, which is not a big deal. When user leaves that spike and goes back into a fasting state, he claims a 90% total reduction insulin level.
also >writing off people that take control of their health and have a professional job crunching numbers and are pursuing medical doctorates like O'hearn >writing of S Baker because you're too lazy or possibly ignorant to actually read related materials and then form an opinion
This is why you're a medical industry shill here to derail these threads and we're all greek pantheon-level beings
Jason Smith
Hitler dubs of truth
As you get older, more and more cells start becoming defective at either killing themselves or cleaning themselves out, so they stick around as junk in the body. In the modern Standard american diet, there is too much food and sugar intake for the body to ever settle down into a fasting state and engage in macro-cellular processes, which means that you have an overabundance of useless cells that are hindering the best you. Most often times, you will find junk in the brain and certain organs. The most visible affects of autophagy on senescence is when, after a 3 day fast, a human body can potentially halve it's number of current immune cells, and engage stem cell production to produce newer and fresher ones. This is currently being investigated as an adjunct to chemo therapy, and provides a lot of resilience to disease post-chemo; 3 day fast also helps mitigate healthy cell damage during the process
Owen Jackson
Protein doesn't raise blood glucose levels but it does raise insulin levels
Logan Bailey
Stop smoking, degenerate.
Xavier Clark
oh wow you really showed me, I'll change now. Faggot
Jaxson Jenkins
Point being, degenerate, is you can't stop the munchies... so stop the thing that causes the munchies.
David Young
Can I drink tea while fasting if I don't add anything to it?
Matthew Hughes
Yes, and coffee
Joshua Moore
Thanks!
Chase Cox
Why is that Thomas DeLauer video in there when he's incorrectly representing how fasting works? You don't suddenly exit a fasted state for extremely minor amounts of energy input, it requires a significant amount energy to break out of the fasted state yet this guy is acting like milk in your coffee is going to do it which is not the case.
Brayden Howard
Ketosis is not the same as fasting
Kevin Williams
He's trying to find a way to make a buck off this new (not really new at all) trend of fasting. He can't just say "don't eat, drink a lot of water", he has to sell snake t-shirts, some bizarre recipe for Snake Oil? and hell maybe even a book deal.
Jack Watson
I'm on day 3 of fasting and feeling quite nauseous, is this normal? Anything I can do to alleviate the feeling?
Brayden Sanchez
hey, so I was going to do 5:2 (for weight loss), but now I'm almost finished my 2 day fast and I was wondering if it's dangerous to just eat one meal then do another 2 day fast straight afterwards, is this sustainable and healthy long-term?
Levi James
Proud of you user, almost 50 pounds. How did you do it?
Hudson Nguyen
What are the long term side effects of fasting?
Mason Perry
FASTING IS RACIST AND SEXIST
"The connection between achievements and food and eating is very alarming," says Claire Mysko, CEO of the National Eating Disorders Association.
It also threatens to alienate employees from diverse backgrounds who may view short-term starvation as accessible only to people who don't have to put dinner on the table for children every night, never missed meals because they couldn't afford to eat, or don't mind regularly sacrificing their cultural ties to food and communal meals.
The connection between Silicon Valley-style fasting and disordered eating might not seem obvious, but that's because our go-to stereotype of the latter involves a rail-thin young white woman. The men who champion fasting, on the other hand, cast it as an ambitious science experiment in which you meticulously track biomarkers of optimum health like insulin and blood glucose. The gendered contrast is striking to some, particularly since women looking to lose weight have long known about and tried fasting diets.
"If this were women sharing the same tools, we would say [intermittent fasting] is disordered eating — if not flat-out eating disorder behavior," says Andrew Walen Walen says "gender ambivalence" keeps people from recognizing that men frequently experience eating disorders — they just often manifest differently compared to women.
I started Lifting because a friend invited me to the gym in July, and I started fasting. Prior to that I managed losing 10lbs just by quitting soda and eliminating trash from the diet. Sugar was never a problem aside from soda when I drink because I really like bourbon and coke, but I still drink an occasional beer. After I started fasting I dropped 30lbs pretty quick over the course of a few months... so imo the whole deal about "fix your diet" is a fucking meme as long as you're not a glutton. Stabalized for a month or so to see how easy it would be to maintain weight, and OMAD works pretty well for that. Back on th downward trend this last week. "No Food November" pushing for 180... and I'm planning on not traveling home for Thanksgiving.
tl:dr Literally fasting will fix you, and despite how difficult fasting is... its infinitely easier than any of the other shit I've tried over the last 15 years.
Eli Miller
Humanity was a mistake
Cameron Moore
Probably not, your body is likely just purging toxins. Make sure you're getting enough water.
Aaron Ross
I am looking at this woman's twitter and it all some liberal triggered articles from places like vox
Adam Clark
>Hugh Jackman told Men’s Fitness as far back as 2013 that he was on an intermittent fasting plan called the “8-Hour Diet Plan,” and that’s how he got his badass body for Wolverine.
I did not know this. This is pretty interesting I wonder what his marcos were
