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
Fasting is ez af once you get going. Just startt a 48 Then refeed and push yourself from there. I do mon-fri fasting on snakeoil, then sat and sun I do one meal around 7 of keto usually a salad with some chicken. 1500 of on those two days. WEIGHT is falling off. Recommend for anyone that has a ton of weight to lose and is sick of failing. Talking 20 POUNDS a month being conservative. After hour 16 it's like I got a constant coffee buzz, steadyg energy and mental clarity. It's real boys.

I actually really liked his interview, weighing on whether or not I can financially do it. Apparently beef is beef standard CAFO or not despite slightly higher omega 6. Was thinking of doing OMEOD with 2-3lbs ground beef on feed days along with some pastured eggs

Did we ever figure out how intermittent dry fasting works? Snake faggot has a video on it where it's more of CICO IF dry where you drink coconut water and eat cucumbers, but I want to know if we have any way where you can do it on regular meal OMAD.

>One thimg the fastfags will not tell you When you come off your fast and break it with a glass of applejuices, be ready to also break your anus, the juice will come right through
Speaking from experience
Adam Ross
Why arent you faggots taking the ultimate red pill - hard dry fasting plus no sleep? Im currently on day 4 of no sleep, no water, no food.
Angel Martinez
But fastfags tell you not to break your fast with sugary shit all the time.
Austin Jones
What does not sleeping help with?
Aaron Long
Doubling your energy expenditure.

Felt like shit for the whole day how do you hit the gym on long fasts please tell me I NEED TO KNOW
Alexander Rodriguez
I lost 5+kg in 1 week. Man, I love me some fasting.
Ethan Morales
Started doing IF 16:8. Just 3 days in and I can already notice the difference in my thighs. Smaller and more defined. Going to give a month for baseline and if the results are good I will stick with this routine.
Henry Gomez
Serious question:
Does eating pussy/pussy juices stop the fasting process?
Caleb Long
tfw high carb vegan /fast/er
I'm on anotha level
Oliver Turner
yes, but just go the cuccumber+coconut diet and do it for one hour a day max and you could be fine.
Samuel White
Just broke my fast with steamed broccoli and a steak. It's been 30 minutes and no shits. I think I'm in the clear.
Adam Gray
How are you doing that without meth?
Easton Ramirez
I've noticed the more I eat meat when I break fast the less I explode - maybe it takes longer to process?
Brandon Hall
Willpower.
Ryder Watson
Huh, and here I thought shitting was good, but after what that snake guy said, I realized it's not at all. Hell, at this point I believe most of us have the same metabolism and fasting is healthy and only natural. I learned so much through diet and exercise-it's quite insane
Adam Williams
daily reminder that you can do it, you can reach you fast goal, you can lose that weight, pain will only make you stronger. We will all make it.
Justin Lewis
Have ate about 3000cal today guess I've been a tad lax after breaking a 24 hoie fast. Still sticking to Keto so I'm not worried. Aiming for. 1700cal tomorrow and I may have to eat some carbs... Got a chic I'm into at work who's baked me some stuff lol.
Anthony Wilson

Landon Baker
>not doing nopoop
never gonna make it
Adam Adams
He said people that are skinny and "shit all the time" and eat bad fucked up their body and they don't absorb much of the nutrients from food and just shit it all out
Brandon Gomez
Anyones sleep get fucked up when starting fasting? My sleep schedule is all over this bitch. Sleeping in 3-5 hour windows and awake for only 8-10 hour windows.
Benjamin Robinson
I was just thinking this when I was wide awake again at 3 in the morning.
Brayden King
Welp, you aren't alone. I'm only 64 hours into my first fast. Hopefully this shit works itself out. Gonna eat today and start again.
Alexander Jones
Anyone know what's causing my stomach to grumble? I know snake man mentioned it in one of his videos, but I can't find it.
Carter Sanchez
Fucking up your health for some more energy expenditure
Make sure you add some dnp with it for some more energy expenditure bro
Christian Miller
>Fucking up your health Yes, mom - just like how when you don't eat 6 high carb meals a day and lift too heavy weights :^)
Zachary Lee
My sleep schedule was already fucked so I haven't noticed.
Daniel Russell

Nolan Murphy
here's a tip/advice i've come to realize on my own
while fasting, don't worry about what the scale says. as long as you're actually fasting YOU ARE GOING TO LOSE WEIGHT. sometimes the body has a delayed response, and you might not see results right away. but I promise you will see results in a few days or so
don't give up anions. never give up. as long as you're doing the right thing you'll see results (speaking from personal experience)
John Long
Yep
Carter Ramirez
you don't
Caleb Hill
>while fasting, don't worry about what the scale says. as long as you're actually fasting YOU ARE GOING TO LOSE WEIGHT. sometimes the body has a delayed response, and you might not see results right away. but I promise you will see results in a few days or so
Agreed. CICO isn't as simple as people make it out to be, but it is an invariant. If you're alive and not eating, you're burning fat.
Robert Cruz
2.5 hours left of my fast bros
The suspense is killing me

Daily neopets blog post for the 4 people that care
> 2nd fast, 66 hours in > Lowest weight loss ever overnight, I lost more weight on my last refeed day than last night. > Feel great
So as you can see I only lost .5 lbs yesterday and it has me really curious. The only thing that changed in my consumption was I drank 500ml of snake juice instead of a liter and 500ml freshwater. I'm trying to reduce my overall snake juice intake to see if that stops my heartburn.
As you can see I have literally lost more weight on a refeed day, so I'm expecting a large drop tomorrow to make up for it
The ONLY other thing that changed was (adjust tinfoil hats now) my sister had indian last night and I went over and had my face right in it, smelling, and very strongly debating eating it. Mouth watering, etc... I'M WONDERING if that somehow triggered some insulin response? I don't fucking know, but my god I was so close to breaking.
Sleep is amazing, feel fantastic, obviously still a permanent hunger in me and getting waves of "holy shit feed me" but they subside.
Today will be the first day where I have to refuse to eat and tell people I'm fasting, curious how this is going to go. I have to avoid eating at my grandmothers place and a company christmas party so this should be interesting.
> I have convinced my based mother to start to /fast/ > She's on two prescription meds > Have seriously asked her to consult her doc and warned her that pills and the usual mom supps will most likely break her fast
We'll see what happens. See you tomorrow.
> But your bodyfat % is increasing you jackass.
This is a shitty fitbit scale that measures BF through the soles of your feet. I do not trust it. I am only keeping them in for personal tracking because data/numbers get me fired up and I see no harm in keeping them for curiosity sake.
NO physical activity 1L Snake juice per day (Trying to reduce this to see what happens) 1 ACV/BS Potion (Breakfast shot) 1 Lemon Juice Potion (Breakfast shot)
Sebastian Martinez
Also the only reason I even mention the insulin spike due to smell was user linked a study that mentioned it MIGHT be possible.
It does seem pretty ridiculous though.
Julian Reyes
I lost 8 kgs thanks to /fast/, gonna take a break for 5 days for christmas (still gonna eat omad just not keto) and then from Jan 1 I'll try to fast for 4 days
Jaxson Nguyen
The scale is on my side but my gut is all over the place lol
Liam Fisher
From the last thread:
>>No.43960561 >first fast >77 hours >no way fuckin jewish cunt
89 hours now. I was keto previously and was doing OMAD with some snacking at the end. It was just not a hard transition, I was already off of carbs and sugar. Also, I'm drinking much more water now, all cold, which helps with hunger. I'm down from 181.6 to 175.8 in 89 hours, about 6 lbs. I actually may have started at 182 but it's not important. What matters is that I tippled the rate at which I was losing weight. This is the first morning I felt it a little, gonna up water intake and take a multi.
Lincoln Smith
Yeah I saw that as well. I went 112 my first fast, and people go way longer.
This guy is silly.
Camden Perry
And this was from eating McDonalds and Pizza for breakfast/lunch/dinner. I just said fuck it and went for it.
Benjamin Flores
I assume you eat healthier now? Tell me you don't eat shit and then fast to make up for it.
Evan Cruz
When do you weigh? In the morning after a piss before you take anything in? I only ask because water is heavy and will throw off your results.
Colton Rogers
Yeah first thing AM after my piss.
Easton Gutierrez
should I use one teaspoon of Nosalt?
or two?
Robert Ward
Well that was only earlier this week lol. I'm brand new to all of this.
I'm just trying to say that you don't need to "start slow" or do keto/omad for a month before your first fast.
Just fucking fast.
Sebastian Jenkins
1 1/2. 2 would be your full max which you don't really need, but 1 might not be enough for the full day. maybe like 1 1/4
Bentley Gutierrez
okay so I'll take 1, and see if i still get a headache or something I guess
thanks
Luis Taylor
4700mg of potassium, look at the container and do the fucking math. Mine comes out to 1.8 real tsp, a measuring spoon not flatware.
Gotcha
Easton Fisher
>4700mg of potassium
I thought that was max, not like what everyone should take all the time?
Cooper Anderson
How true is this statement?
>Unlike a calorie restrictive diet, when you fast your body pumps up T, HGH and leucine. When calorie restrictive, these things never happen and you loose more muscle PER POUND OF FAT LOST. It takes you longer to lose that muscle when calorie restrictive but it's still a net negative and the faster you can get to goal (fasting), the sooner you can start rebuilding.
Henry Brown
Day 9 of snakejuice fast. Day 2 of dry fast.
Finally seeing scale results (dropped about 3 lb overnight) but dry fasting is scary desu.
Ethan Wilson
Quite.
Dominic Jackson
sounds dangerous senpai
Juan Wright
If you are doing max sodium, you have to do max potassium from what I understand, because the two are related. So, it depends on your sodium intake. I personally go just a hair low on each, but not much. Remember that if you are doing the ACV/baking soda mix that the baking soda counts towards sodium. That's a good thing because your water will be less salty or you will be able to have more clean water.
Jayden Moore
thank you
Brandon Jones
NP
Thanks, that was my statement and I was just regurgitating what I've learned. It sounds good and I know some of it is supported by studies but I'm just not knowledgeable enough to be confident that it's not BS. I don't know exactly if the studies were looking into LONG fasts or just 2-3 day fasts. I was replying to people claiming that muscle would be lost when fasting, a common argument.
Evan Garcia
My first dry fast was 24 hours and I'll break this one after 48.
I've heard horror stories of people being hospitalized and dropping dead from short dry fasts, but then I watch vlogs of people dry fasting that seem just fine.
I don't understand.
I don't understand.
Wyatt Cox
>Unlike a calorie restrictive diet, when you fast your body pumps up leucine.
That part doesn't make sense. Never seen that. Leucine intake might help o a fast.
>When calorie restrictive, these things never happen and you loose more muscle PER POUND OF FAT LOST.
The studies I've read have suggested roughly 1/3rd of the mass lost through straight restriction on a normalish diet (15-20% protein), no exercise is muscle mass. Which is a lot. Basically means you could never get lean (though that changes significantly if you lift)
William Watson
22 hr in to my first 48hr fast, not feeling hungry or dizzy. Would hitting the gym be alright?
Henry Watson
Is there any way to make snake juice (w/salt) taste better without breaking fast? Or should I just bear it out? I'm only on a 48 hour so I don't really need it but I wanted to try it out.
Jeremiah Thompson
Don't work out on an empty stomach. Wait until after the fast. If you're feeling antsy go for a walk or something.
Kayden Thompson
Why would you try to dry fast. That's dumb.
Nicholas Torres
GOTTA GO FASTS!
Brody Brooks
I've been holding a ton of weight since beginning my water fast and wanted to drop it. Also fell for the dry-fast-is-healing meme.
Angel Nelson
not even simple bodyweight shit
Colton Wilson
seems dangerous to dry fast just to speed up weight loss, and POSSIBLY increase autophagy a little bit
Hunter Rodriguez
what's the point of dry fasting over water fasting? Your body needs to stay hydrated with electrolytes, I never understood this dry fasting thing
Angel Parker
maybe i'm just salt/potassium deficient, but I just started my first fast, and I think snake juice tastes pretty good
Connor Collins
>Also fell for the dry-fast-is-healing meme
I've asked in every single thread where people are getting their information about dry fasting
so far nobody has posted a single article or video on where they are coming up with this stuff
Levi James
This might be a dumb question but I've seen people say that doing normal water fasts instead of snakejuice for 24-48 hours is fine but is it also fine if I do that and then switch up to snake juice after the 48? I assume so, but just to be sure.
Samuel Wood
I might have used too much pink salt. I used a 1/2 tsp for a half liter
Asher Scott
>tfw lost 1.5 inches off my waist thus week and 5 pounds Feels great. I'll have a 24 incher again soon
Keep up the good work everyone
Andrew Fisher
yeah, and also your waist will be smaller too right?
Joshua Robinson
>snacking >Calls it fast your arguments dont get better jew
Kayden Sullivan
I got the ultimate black pill - DNP + hard dry fasting + no sleep. Im 37 hrs in and I feel great!
Jack Wood
>beeing this american bbbut muh burgers mommyyyy
Blake Jackson
dry fasting is just stupid becuze you cant do it longer than 5 days and your body burns zero fat
