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
First for avocado and fat fasting breaks autophagy and will leave you with loose skin. Water with salts is objectively superior and is easier as you will have less ghrelin.

Good job, bruh. I've only done 5-day fasts and 6-day fasts, but I really want to try a longer, extended fast.

DAILY REMINDER FUNGS "STUDY" WAS A COMPUTER MODEL OF FASTING NOT A HUMAN STUDY.

There's one problem with the rationale behind fasting diets, according to David Lau, an obesity researcher, professor and chair of the diabetes and endocrine research group at the University of Calgary. When glycogen stores in the liver are depleted, the body doesn't burn fat: It breaks down protein. Lau said starvation will only burn fat as fuel after about a week of starvation.
"Muscle protein breakdown occurs in the first 24 hours of starvation," he said. "Muscle protein breakdown [is] not healthy."
His concern is that many people are fasting without realizing they may be losing crucial muscle mass. The danger is that as protein in the body breaks down, it could lead to other unwanted side effects, such as altered immunity. In order to fight infections, the body needs to produce antibodies, a type of protein. But when the body is breaking down protein for fuel, it may not send the right signal to make antibodies, Lau said. theglobeandmail.com/life/health-and-fitness/health/what-you-should-know-before-going-on-a-fast/article8461083/

WHAT DO
Elijah Williams
fuck off bitch nigga get your shitty avocado ass up outta here
How bad would carbs fuck me on OMAD? Specifically, I'm seeing my family soon and they're planning on ordering pizza. I don't want them to worry about me having an eating disorder or some shit, so I'm planning on making a few slices my one meal. This will be my first time in a month having junk food and I'm paranoid about how much damage it's going to do.
Michael Ramirez
Your pleb music and avocados will be cast into the sea of /fat/ you false prophet
what is /general/ ? Basically it's when some bullshit is wrong so they just have to keep reposting it to appear legit
>WHY PROOF IS BULLSHIT Because it disagrees with my retarded world view
WHY YOU SHOULD BE BUYING MY SHIT: shill-link-fucko.com/isuckdicks
>any more fake "info" Nah nobody else agrees lol
>Doesn't some regular logic apply here? I'll just write this sentence which doesn't answer the question but if I do have something here, at a casual glance it will appear to have answered it so nobody will say anything
"Do not POST, do not post, do not reply, do NOT reply to this, I will just repost it again"
>attempt to tell priest at my own funeral about the pseudo faux benefits of fasting >realize I am dead because I didn't eat anything because I was basically a food hipster
So if cico is bullshit how do so many people lost weight using just that and/or iifym? Please advise genuinely interested in the answer. Not trying to argue or anything.
Nicholas Cooper
Why is it so much easier to not eat at all than to eat a little?
Jackson Reyes
>arch enemy disgusting
Kevin Peterson
Eating nothing gets your mind off food because you set the expectation for never eating. If you do OMAD or something, at least in the early stages, all you think about is that one meal all day. This probably differs between people but that's my experience anyway.
Tyler Lopez
you're literally retarded
Jonathan Parker

Yeah sure because body is totaly retarded and will burn the thing that is hard to get and you need it for survival (protein) instead of thing that is literally just stored energy (fat)
David Wright
>trusting faggot gook canadian fat peddlers to cure your obesity for you instead of stealing your shekels
hes got avocado for brains user there is no saving the poor fuck
Gavin Wood
I know. He is always shilling websites that sell products for fucking FASTING something thats free and people are trying to milk people out of their money. Its ridiculous
avocado dude is a huge faggot but prolon donates all its money to charity
anyway, you dont need to buy it. prolon is basically very low calorie keto with limited protein to induce autophagy.
Matthew Lee
Daily reminder that avocadofag is still fast and has made zero progress "fat fasting." If anything he got a little fatter.
Luke Clark
*Daily reminder that avocadofag is still fat ...
Luis Murphy
Currently eating at 2100 cal (184C,47F,236P), about a 600cal def. I did my first 24h fast last Saturday and it worked well ( did IF for a long time). I ate on Friday 8pm and then on Saturday evening I ate Chicken with potatoes and then treated myself to oats with milk and nuts. I went to bed with 400 cal remaining. Should I have added those the next day (2500 cal)? Should I have broken my fast with something lighter? - At the end I was really fucking hungry due to the meal prep. Up until then I was fine. How do you hobby bodybuilders out there deal with your lost Macros?
Aiden Roberts
This is literally what happens in human studies. Not in Fung's magical computer model study This is literally what happen to Tim Ferris in his fast
the book Ferriss details his process for his 3 day fast that includes the use of exogenous ketones and C8 MCT Oil. MCT or Medium chain triglycerides are found in high concentrations (62-65%) in
>this is literally what happen to Jimmy Moore after fasting
its like Jimmy's body just shredded through all the muscle and converted it to fat
Robert Howard
that is an old study with poor data, poor control and done by a guy that literally no one ever heard about excep atkins and people promoting fat fasting
tim ferris is a snake oil salesman
jimmy moore is a fat fuck
Brandon Jenkins
Literally don't give a fuck about you pseudo bullshit m8 I'm down 40 pounds and will keep going until I make it and there is not a god damn thing you can do about it.
Adrian Cruz
>jimmy moore is a fat fuck
>literally, fasting and doing keto
Thomas King
you're literally retarded
Christian Jones
>1:00 am >not sleepy but need to go to bed >time passes, still can't sleep >check time >2:09 am >immediately post because this is fucking bullshit that happens almost every night of fasting
HOW the fuck am I supposed to get some fucking sleep?
Grayson Davis
>that is an old study with poor data, poor control and done by a guy that literally no one ever heard about excep atkins and people promoting fat fasting
lmao you can actually listen to jimmy complain about being a hungry fuck
then the host says he lost all his fat "FAT FASTING" and says Atkins was a genius then goes on some stupid rant of bullshit.
What the fuck. I used to have massive scars all over my tongue from getting burned when I was a kid. Looked really ugly. I just noticed while brushing my teeth that they're gone.
It seems weird that a fast would fix this, but I can't think of anything else.
Asher Young
3 consecutive days or like MWF?
Jack Stewart
autophagy bro. Some of my scars are almost gone and so are my stretch marks
Jaxson Allen
forgot to ask : how long you fasted?
Noah Anderson
YEAH, HE IS A FUCKING SCAM ARTIST
BUT THE WHOLE POINT TO FAT FASTING IS YOU LOWER YOUR CALORIES TO GET ELEVATED KETONE LEVELS
OMAD, not even keto. It's why I'm surprised that this actually happened.
Easton Stewart
It will kick you out of ketosis and you will retain some water if you were doing keto before. Nothing that more fasting wont solve. You could also tell them that you are sick/not hungry but whatever. Enjoy your pizza
Carter Rivera
What's the best way to do fasting if I DON'T want to gain muscle?
I'm in a situation where I have to lose weight. My BMI is 19.5 so I'm already skinny but I need to get lower numbers on the scale.
Since muscle weights even more than fat, I don't want to gain any muscle. Also, muscle isn't desired for my objetive as well. The ideal would be skinny fat.
I'm already sedentary for that purpose. I just can't use exercise to lose weight faster.
How can I do it?
Aaron Evans
>The ideal would be skinny fat. why
Anyway just do water fast. Wont gain muscle on that and do cardio to be sure
Jordan Gomez
Modelling job in a country where muscles aren't seen as attractive.
Thanks for the reply. I'll fast for as long as I can and if I go over 3 days I will take some electrolytes.
Liam Baker
35 hours into my dry fast. Is this how immortality feels like?
Hunter Baker
>mfw >eating clean and healthy isn't a problem for me so after fast plans are set >want fat loss plus other benefits of water fasting >been trying for like 5 months >longest I've gone water fasting is like 2 1/2 days >i am so mentally fucking weak and give in >can't even do a week when goal is 2 weeks
how to stop and fight through the craving?
Matthew Watson
I just lifted on an empty stomach and it's 2pm. I'm on OMAD.
Should I eat now or can I wait until before bed?
Easton Cooper
Looooooong walks at a New York City pace.
Chase Hughes
I distract myself as much as possible. I have a lot of hobbies to keep myself occupied such as reading, piano and videogays
I also have a small plate of pink salt crystals near me which I suckle on to keep me even more distracted.
Colton Wright
you need less sleep while fasting.
Jonathan Gutierrez
When was the last time you ate yesterday? Eat at that time again today.
Xavier Diaz
9 pm. K will do.
Jacob Lewis
If I was doing OMAD I would always have my meals after workout. Makes most sense to me
Alexander Allen
Lost 4lb on my first day of dry fast lads
Henry Brown
thats only 1lb of fat at the very most.
you can start trusting your weight loss after like 3-4 days, before that most of the loss will be water weight
Wyatt Jenkins
I was already fasting for 2 weeks tho
Robert Myers
Is fasting done in order to lose soke weight? How about making a fast now and then for muscle gains? Doesn't eating with such a big pause mean the body is missing on energy and protein, making you catabolic?
Julian Wilson
The anabolic window is 24-48 hrs. If you eat within the window and have plenty of fat to burn you can at the very least do a recomp while fasting for several days.
You will, however, look deflated when not eating obv
Ethan Ortiz
yeah. but after your fast is over you will get like 3-5 kg back over the week (which is not fat but water weight) just saying that loosing a shitton the first week doesnt mean anything it will still only be like 2 kg of fat at most
Josiah Barnes
>anabolic window >this guy gives you advice on Veeky Forums
John Turner
It's a well established term in the fasting community. Try doing some googling. I recommend Leangains, Lyle Macdonald and Mark's Daily Apple
Oliver Clark
I know that Im just saying its week 3
Jacob Smith
>fasting community Yeah, try broscience community next time
>lean gains and lyle kek, when I was new I though those guys were the shit too, not gonna blame you for taking buying their bait
Adrian Adams
Research shows that natties don't gain new muscle from a workout post 48 hrs.
Adrian Anderson
Thank you Avocado, i save the pic, will be my Profil Pic for the next 3 years
James Torres
after workout is good, before bed is not optimal. Give your Body the rest time it Needs and dont make it digest while you sleep!
Jayden Richardson
requesting the pic that says what snakeman does to get ripped (he fasts to like 10% but then switches it up)
James Richardson
Avacado is like the cancer cell that keeps shilling in /fast/ threads. We literally have no clue what his stances are, but we know he's autistic. Uses old data, keeps capitalizes everything, dumb pictures ect
Juan Stewart
...
John Lee
Been fasting for over 24 hours. My hands and toes are ice cold. Will this ever stop?
I can’t keep fasting if I can’t use my hands and function like a normal human being. I got shit to do damn.
Ayden Cook
it will pass. Add some cayenne pepper to your snake juice to make it better
Ethan Perry
This.
Also, Avocado is still very fat. His before and after pictures from following the plan he shills show that he has lost almost zero fat. He's a confirmed food addict who has to stuff his face every few hours
Liam Howard
At what day though? How many hours do I need to be fasted until my body starts warming back up?
Carson Reed
you could wear gloves. its what i do sometimes. (also wear 2 pair of socks)
Hudson Howard
I thought tea was safe. Read later that only green tea. I've had black tea with no sugars. Did I break the fast?
Logan Adams
What if I don’t want to look like a total freakin autist?
Zachary Ramirez
be glad you ae cold because you spend more calories?
Adam James
Get some hand warmer packets
Caleb Powell
pic?
Jason Wood
I can't believe this is working. OMAD and 15Ibs down in one month? I'm not even doing anything special. I'm still eating whataburger, fries, burritos, Hershey bars, etc., but in maybe a 30 minute time frame. This boggles my mind. Why doesn't everyone do this? It's super easy
Kevin Jones
