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
Can somone who's not a soy boy post theu before and after? If fast is so good I want to see people with muscle mass do it instead of crash diet fatties
Colton Sanders
he is so cancerous
>T H I C C B O I in a fasting thread lol
Zachary Price
>fasted so hard his hair started falling out surprised he can hold up his phone
Nathaniel Wright
I don't eat any soy. Mostly greek yogurt and lean beef and turkey with some broccoli and salt when I'm not fasting (aka one meal every 24-48 hours)
But I fully admit I am a twink faggot though. I have a shoulder injury since 2012 and I can barely hold things above my head for long
I shaved and it regrew
Josiah Miller
Can I go OMAD and still consume a 1000 calorie deficit per day? Currently 6'4'' 255 and need to loose about 50 pounds.
Aiden Young
What's your bodyfat on the right bruh
Cooper Brown
I want to do a short water fast (48 hours). Do I need to worry about electrolytes over such a short time period? I have low potassium sometimes because I have IBS and go through periods where I shit my guts out after every meal for days on end.
Also, can I do cardio while water fasting or will I pass out?
Brandon Campbell
No reason you can't. 1000 kcal deficit isn't anything special.
Jackson Jenkins
Does oil pulling kick you out of a fasted state?
Josiah Jones
Yes. Transitioning into the fast is the hardest part. Just put some salt in your water and you'll be fine.
Also have IBS. I get bloody shits if I eat more than a few grams of plants a day. Fun times.
Aiden Gutierrez
I would estimate between 15-20%. DEXA scans are really manipulable, if you drink a lot of water you can lower your reading by 3%.
I am 5'10 195 in left, 5'10 171 in right. 3 weeks progress water/dry fasting/IF keto. Only walking for exercise every so often.
If I lose about another 30 lbs of fat and 5 lbs of lean body mass (RIP), I would be around a legit 9% bf.
Basically my diet right now. RULE OF THUMB: Fast longer, eat more quickly, and you will lose more weight. Two reasons: insulin and intestinal absorption of calories. Keep calories low too.
Good luck :D
Landon Perry
48 hours done Can I eat keto now
Matthew Davis
at the very least it won't kick you out of ketosis, since it's fat and it isn't much calories anyway, if they even are absorbed in the mouth anyway
sorry to hear you have IBS man. Hope fasting can cure it.
Camden Garcia
yes, and then you do another 24 or 48 :)
keep doing this for a month or two and you will be down 20-40 lbs
Juan Jones
No, OMAW is the final form. Go for 5 days.

>he is so cancerous AT LEAST I AM NOT A FUCKING MANLET CHINK CON ARTIST TRYING TO SELL BOOKS MISREPRESENTING A COMPUTER MODEL AS A 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/

Night after breaking 65h dry fast
.>good Didnt shit myself while sleeping Protein in pee is gone and maybe was not there in the first place or I guess it happened because my body could not absorb all protein eaten after breaking fast?
>bad Gained fucking 2kg
>unknown My keto strips are showing higher urine ph. It should be 5 but it is like 7. What does that mean?
Also slept for only like 3 hours
Brayden Perry
doing a hard dry fast, am I supposed to feel like i'm dying

BUT YOU FUCKERS BELIEVE THIS GENIUS BROISCIENTIST WHO THINKS POOP MAKES CALORIES TOTALLY IRRELEVANT
THIS IS HONESTLY THE STUPIDEST FUCKING THING IT HAS TO BE A FUCKING PARODY
Ive been doing 16/8 on my off days while on a 3200 cal bulk what benefits should i expect :DD

Sebastian Gonzalez
>THINKS POOP MAKES CALORIES TOTALLY IRRELEVANT He doesn't tho, some calories you shit out... simple observable fact. Some animals eat their own shit because of this, some animals have two stomachs because of this.

been 4 days of arguing with you now and you still say that my results are from muscle wasting lmao, i'm dying
can we meet up in person bro??? i think it would be so hilarious to see our autisms clash in a friendly debate over some lemon water and avocados. no homo
what day are you in? no. it's supposed to be enjoyable. If you are suffering, you can either eat some salt or stop. Suffering = something has gone wrong.
hey dude me again, here to help. protein in urine fluctuates wildly. Don't read too deeply into it. I used to "fail physicals" all the time for protein in urine
higher urine ph is good. You want it to be neutral, 7. Acidic pee is a symptom of ketosis and explains why you were having slight kidney pain
Gaining 2kg is no big deal. Just water. It will level off tomorrow at only 1kg or less
How much did you lose total, from starting weight, to lowest weight, to current weight?

Check out my results in the OP and then tell me that dry fasting is in any way shape or form harmful or non-beneficial
Charles Allen
YEAH, HIS FACE BOOK WERE HE CLAIMS TO KNOW THE CURE FOR CANCER DRY - FASTING
AS IF NO ONE WOULD HAVE FIGURED THIS OUT BY NOW AND SOME EXTRA CHROMOSOME KID IN CANADA SOLVED THE MYSTERY
THE ONLY THING YOU WILL BE SHITTING OUT IS YOUR LEAN FUCKING MASS OF COURSE YOU WILL GET SMALLER YOUR BODY IS CANNIBALIZING IT SELF
Michael Smith
>EXTRA CHROMOSOME KID >as he spams every /fast/ with refuted points and caps lock for literally weeks. lol shill hardee
Josiah Price
The cure for cancer is quite literally keeping casein ingestion to under 5% of total calories.
Fasting/ketosis is literally cancer-reversing.

Christopher Torres
What he's saying is actually true, though. It does take about a week of caloric deficit to start burning an appreciable amount of fat. This is why cheat days are so retarded.
Leo White
no, it doesn't
Camden Baker
what is ketosis, fuck wat?

Zachary Price
You lose weight on keto (fat fasting), nobody debates that. What avocado niggers eternally fail to comprehend is that you end up with saggy fucking skin because you don't trigger autophagy when you eat food. You also don't fi food addiction because you're literally eating. You also don't fix metabolic syndromes (hormone problems) because you regularly spike insulin.
I contemplate how fucking retarded you are. I meditate on it, and it's something I cannot comprehend yet.
Anthony Cruz
I want to try a 48 hour fast so bad. I don't think I have the courage to do it
Michael Adams
thank you for calling out these fuckin keyboard theorists in this thread who are still not losing a single ounce with their studies and mystical criticism
Adam Jones
hi, the good news is you can quit if you don't like it!! :)
you can also work your way up. Imagine if you just made it until 4PM or something. That's nearly a full day of fasting (if you finished dinner at say 7PM the night before)
Adrian Campbell

WE WENT OVER THIS ALREADY YOU CAN GET THE SAME FUCKING RESULTS WITH A CYCLICAL KETO DIET REEEEEE
>stops autophagy
>The autophagy-lysosomal pathway is involved in TAG degradation in the liver: the effect of high-sucrose and high-fat diet. >LAL activity significantly correlated with ketogenesis in all groups >Autophagy is stimulated under the same conditions as LAL ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/20974050
>Ketones turn on autophagy >Tissues that cannot use ketone bodies for energy respond to these small molecules by activating chaperone-mediated autophagy.
Is the only type that needs to be stimulated by fasting and it only last a few hours.

Parker Edwards
He tripfags so its easy to hide his posts (he's not smart enough to know this because he's a tripfagging shill that thinks he's doing something of a trademark.
Dr Colin Campbell is famous (in the vegan plant based community) for his book The China Study.
They did a ton of research and clinical studies in China that basically explained that when animal fat/casein is less than 5% of total calories in one's diet, tumor growth ceases and incidences are lower.
Chinese people back in the 60s and 70s got most of their calories from rice, vegetables, and only a very small amount from meat, that was cut into thin sheets and was eaten sparingly.
He proposed this as the explanation for why Chinese and Indian and Southeast Asian inhabitants had much lower cancer rates than Westerners, who eat lots of meat and cheese and milk.
I personally have reservations about some of this but the study was massive. It's why I am glad most of my calories come from my own fat.
Adam Lewis
>THIS IS ME EVERY TIME I ENTER FAST
the Alex Jones pic is your body type before and after your "fat fast." You have lost zero fat following your plan, fatty.
Daniel Barnes
Fucking lol that looks exactly like avo's fatroll
Gabriel Phillips
>It's why I am glad most of my calories come from my own fat so what's your plan when you lose the weight
Isaiah Johnson
No cooincidence, they both fat fasted.
Grayson Williams
trips confirm.
also notice that alex jones literally shaved his biceps to give himself a shadow appearance of definition LOL
Gabriel Butler
you get refuted, then you start screaming and pretend it didn't happen
you don't know the difference between lean mass and muscle, you don't know why methods and sample sizes and replication are important.
diabetes and heart disease is very high in india, though
Brayden Carter
>don't know the difference between lean mass and muscle Good catch, it's so funny that so many people are pointing out this faggots retardation. Cheers
Angel Reyes
if I was really concerned about any cancerous tumors growing inside of me, I suppose I would put some weight back on through sugar or nuts or something, and then continue fasting
but you already know im gonna live life, eat some fat ass food and enjoy it. then when i wanna lose weight i'll fast some more
fuck if i wanna live til 90 being some old rickety vegan lol
i have no qualms about dying at 68. im already basically retired
Michael Martin
they didn't get canceer because they largely didn't live as long, and didn't have much exposure to industrial pollutants. see how their cancer rate is climbing even among those with a traditional diet.
see also how japanese immigrants who adopted US diets but maintained japanese lifestyles lived longer than those who retaind lifestyle and diet
you're literally retarded. maybe more than avocado.
Brody Jenkins
I'm willing to bet in the 1960s and 70s when this was conducted, it was not common. Maybe in the richer high classes, but not among the 1b poor people who live solely off of rice and grass
the western diet has infiltrated nearly every corner of the world now though. rip
Luis Harris
Water I hope. I drank 3 litres over course of 6 hours
Hey biggest weight loss 27kg so right now Im at 25kg.
Were you drinking coffee during your fast? I still dont know if it is good or bad. Snake man is against it but I think only because he wants you to quit all addictions (food,meds,cigaretes,caffeine)
Eli Ward
also the reduced casein changed things from tumors to tissue necrosis under exposure to toxins. this means it made things worse.
William Thompson
look, I explicitly said I don't swear by this guy. I'm merely bringing information to your attention.
Anyone who is inactive and is overeating, particularly on PURELY hot dogs and butter and etc will on average have higher cancer rates than someone who is eating normal portions and is moderately active
Lincoln Martinez
even if that were true, and it's not, observational studies are not sufficient for drawing conclusions.
Gabriel Wilson
There are pros and cons... I still drink the fuck out of black coffee and I'm down 60lbs in 5 months (not even strict water fasting, but it bursts).
Pro >helps trigger autophagy harder while fasting
Con >not too great for gut microbiome
I address this with probiotics and prebiotics on the refeed.
Elijah Nguyen
[citation needed] [disambiguation needed]
congrats!! that's fucking bomb dude!!!!
I don't drink coffee, tea, or caffeine because I'm a lil bitch and it makes my heart race and my chest very tight.
I don't know if I believe snakeman about the coffee. However I have chewed gum that has calories from sugar alcohol in it. As you could expect, the taste was great and the weight loss still continued just fine.
I think it is a mistake for ANYONE to be a purist. If something comforts you and the weight continues to drop, keep doing it until something in that process breaks. I'd rather a 90% optimal fast that lasts 10 days than a 100% optimal fast that lasts 5.
David Gray
how do you vet your information then bro???
I mean, i just read and watch a lot of diverse shit and then begin experimenting to see what works with me.
I really don't like purism and theorists on the internet. the China study was really massive and is something to consider, not something to dismiss wholesale because it immediately challenges your original belief.

The only retard here is Avocado.
Cameron Hernandez
correlation is not causation. no amount of handwaving about sample size changes that.
people like to point to epidemiology for this being valid, but epidemiology already has established causation in that microorganisms cause disease. the rest of human knowledge doesn't have that convenience.
Adam Morris
I dont understand your pic because Im brainlet. If it really boosts autophagy (source please) then I will start drinking it because Im afraid of ending up with loose skin and also caffeine boosts weight loss right?
Thanks,halfway done lol. I really let myself go
From 1.11 i lost only 7kg so far. Refeeds always fuck me over I will stop doing them
Bentley Morris
you must be avocado, then
I'm sorry you're too retarded to look up things you yourself are quoting

Jace Rivera
i'm responding to like 5 different people in this thread soooo sorry, again I don't swear by it. my pics are in OP so obviously im not Avo...
i used to be a competitive cyclist weighing 127 lbs at 5'10 lol. anything above 127 is "fat" in my mind, so it's a pretty crazy pipedream to chase haha
i'm not going to be able to intellectually engage with you at this point. either we can talk about potential causes for diseases, or we can't talk at all. I don't dismiss studies for procedural reasons
