Convenient, available and realistic options. Thank you! Obviously you are not encouraging us to eat this everyday but life happens. Great example of the flexibility this lifestyle offers. The toy toss! 😂

[@FastingFoodie]

So glad you understand!! Kel LOVED the toy toss too, he imitated me for days with it LOL

[@juno2013]

Unfortunately processed foods are triggers for me but for folks able to eat these foods it’s good info to know. I’m down 35 lbs & I love fasting. 10 more lbs to go. 😊

[@FastingFoodie]

You can do it! 👏

[@tammi67able]

Congratulations

[@abigailccc]

Can you do a down day every other day? Really love how flexible it sounds!

[@mommacobba]

GREAT video!! This is REAL life!😃 And thanks for doing the homework for us on what's available for 500 calories at our favorite fast food places!!😉🤗🤭p.s. didnt know Culver's had Chili! Wendy's is my favorite...but gonna try that Culver's next time!🙌

[@FastingFoodie]

Culver's is slighty better than Wendy's IMO... I love Wendy's too though! I picked Culver's to highlight though because of the root beer.

[@mymy_sweetiepie2692]

This is SUPER helpful. Many thanks for sharing.

[@ms.rivera7898]

Great video. Thank you for these options.

Jackie I love you. You are so honest and real. Thank you😊

[@jessiel7694]

This was such a fun video! Thanks so much for all the easy down day ideas! ❤

[@FastingFoodie]

You are so welcome! Thanks for watching 💕

[@tonimt1712]

Lol at the little mermaid "ah-ah-ah" at Chipotle! This is such a helpful video. The video didn't pop up at the end for me.

[@FastingFoodie]

You get me :). And thank you for pointing that out, I will fix it!

[@kkhooray2153]

Really needed this video. Thanks Jackie!

[@FastingFoodie]

Yay!! so glad you liked!

[@IFCoachKiran]

Love this Jackie! Great options on the go! I’m gonna have to try the panda down day soon since I LOVE super greens!! Thank you for sharing!

[@FastingFoodie]

They were BY far my favorite! It was so satisfying. Those greens have been in my dreams LOL 🤤 Hope you love it!

[@amyvpierce]

Loved this video...such great & realistic ideas!!

[@FastingFoodie]

Thank you!

[@anngallagher7495]

I haven't incorporated the down days and up days yet but sounds like a great idea. I started seriously fasting in January and am down 7 lbs. It's the best plan ever for those if us who love to eat! Thankyou for your videos! So encouraging !

[@traci3466]

Great ideas! Really appreciate this video- thank you!!!!

[@FastingFoodie]

Glad it was helpful! thank you!

[@foreversavedbygrace]

Is there a video you could do with all of the LMNT combinations you’ve come up with? I saw a video where you mentioned orange juice and the mango habanero which is absolutely amazing! Now I need to try watermelon lemonade!

[@melodylewis1354]

Great video very interesting and informative

[@debracoulter1250]

I really enjoyed this video. I rarely eat out but, great ideas!

[@FastingFoodie]

Thanks Debra!

[@isadoracruz5939]

I needed this video so bad. I love down and up days because it makes me feel like i'm cheating. It has been two months since I started fasting and i'm down 20 lbs and counting. I struggled with finding what to eat on down days when i'm busy so this video definitely is what I need. Thank you Jackie Chao Down and Ciao lol!

[@FastingFoodie]

YAY!! So glad you found it helpful! Busy days make the BEST down days in my opinion, which makes tons of prep hard sometimes!!

[@Hsusbwushwu]

What windows were you using these 2 months? Ive been fastin for two months and have not lost any weight. 😢

[@isadoracruz5939]

@@FastingFoodie Yes! I like to do down days when I'm very busy. It dristracts me from thinking about food.

[@isadoracruz5939]

@@HsusbwushwuI always fast for minimum 20 hours. So I do OMAD everyday 20-4 and down/up days at least 3 times a week. Planing to do this until I get to my goal weight. Hope this helps you.

@@isadoracruz5939 Ty!!!!

[@Dawnf27]

Would like to see a video on up days too 👍

[@cupcake2023..]

How do you deal with cravings after eating like donuts when you gave one but like for me having one makes me crave more

[@lauras4472]

That’s what sugery carbs do!

[@FastingFoodie]

I close my window on the app (I do not like to reopen it) and I have a fasting drink around. Generally, I wouldn't have a much sugar on a down day. It was hard at Dunkin to not get one tho.

[@joygriffin6324]

The Practical Fasting Foodie - thank you for speaking my language -(saving this one) - also tell LMNT they have a regular customer in me because of you.

[@suewinter3693]

I LOVE the egg bites. Today I had the bacon/cheese AND the kale/mushroom. SO yummy.

[@FastingFoodie]

I was impressed!!

[@MarcellinaMoon]

I love this video and try to avoid fast food but in a pinch this is great info. It would be AMAZING if you could put together a little graphic or list/ebook/meme with the meals written down with specific orders? Does that make sense? Maybe I’ll Google and see if anyone else has done anything like that already. Thank you!

[@berdawn82]

Ooohhh very interested in this video. Thank you so much for all you do. I’m struggling a lot with my mental health right now, something I’ve never struggled with until the last couple of years but fasting truly truly helps me. My adhd/binge eating disorder tells me “nooooo eat it all” but you truly help me want to stick with it.

[@berdawn82]

I comment as I watch so I try to keep all comments under my first as to not clog up your comments. I love love love LMNT. I never spend the money on it though, it’s not even that expensive I just have a money spending problem 😂

[@FastingFoodie]

I am glad that Fasting helps you mentally, too! It really does for me as well. It's hard to articulate, but I really understand

[@darrenhadden1037]

Awesome food choices Jackie! Cheers from Ottawa Canada!

Down days REALLY were key to my weight loss I think!

Jackie, you are the best!

Thank you!!

[@charlareidbodyandsoul]

Thanks so much for all the information. I’m not at the point yet in my Binge Eating recovery where I can have the processed food around and be in control. But I have NO doubt I will get there. This is going to be perfect for when I do! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@FastingFoodie]

Kudos to you for know your limits and what works for you!! 💕

[@charlareidbodyandsoul]

@@FastingFoodie Awwww thank you! ❤️❤️❤️

[@ChristineMaz]

I miss Dunkin Donuts and Culver’s from when I lived in the midwest. We don’t have either in the PNW. I also love Culver’s diet root beer. I had Taco Bell last night - 2 Doritos locos tacos, black beans with one package of mild sauce. Less than 500 calories and was definitely filling. (I used the rest of the calories for coffee with sugar free syrup and chocolate almond milk). At Starbucks I get the spinach feta wrap - it’s delicious and is a great low cal breakfast. Love this video!!

[@FastingFoodie]

Wow!! I thought Dunkin was all over! We don't have a ton of them. I'm not surprised on Culver's I guess.

[@mariaolker]

I like the super greens at Panda because they still have a little crunch to them. I can't stand when vegetables are cooked to death. By the way, I loved this video!

[@FastingFoodie]

Yes, they really do a great job!

[@candecarro]

I enjoyed this video even though I don’t “do” fast food pick-up window restaurants. I didn’t hear the restaurant names of two of the middle meals- with the kids sized greens, meat and egg rolls; and the following one with the “egg bites.” Thanks.

[@Dawnf27]

What is an up day please.?

[@pyotr716]

Thanks for sharing your experience!! I just recently got into fasting. I'm a little confused when you say down days and up days. I don't understand how that falls into your one meal a day? please help. 😭😭

[@evelynpritchard9693]

Jackie pls give me your input. I am following the OMAD several months now mostly 6 days fo the week & I’ve lost 12 lbs. I am curious about the 1000mg of sodium in the LMNT… I’ve tried the liquid IV- my husband works outdoors, here in Texas the heat gets so bad. But the liquid IV is very salty- I am a little scared to try it, recently like two wks ago found out I have high BP.

[@melcop]

I’ve hit a plateau & just can’t seem to get back on track. 2 years fasting & 5 stone down. Any ideas what I can do?

[@catrinahall4987]

What are you getting in your iced coffees?

[@debrarogers7776]

Is sodium amount appropriate for people with blood pressure issues?

[@candicemay]

How do u prevent or handle fatigue after breaking your fast? I’m struggling with that especially at work 😩

[@FastingFoodie]

This happened at the beginning of my fasting journey only. Are you early on in your journey? Maybe experiment with what you break your fast with? See if food quality makes a difference

[@hockeymomavalon2499]

I find if I go for a walk after, even 10 minutes it really helps with the tired feeling after eating. Hope this helps

[@jordanbrascia3483]

El Pollo Loco healthier fast food... In n Out protein style burger

[@dianedeck]

Since you are on a talking basis with LMNT can you ask them to get HSA approved. My HSA does cover electrolyte supplements but all the ones that are approved have sugar and I would like to have sugar free electrolyte supplements. I think LMNT would probably get a lot more business if they were HSA approved.

[@FastingFoodie]

Great Idea!! I would love that, too. I will send in the idea 💡 I cannot imagine it's not on their radar!

[@mandymcdowell894]

I’m new to this. Finished my 28 day quick start. And for a down day are you supposed to eat all the calories in 30 mins? Just curious when doing a fun diet soda for a treat or lemon aid? Thank you! Great videos.

[@Jasapan-u4s]

I noticed you don’t seem to be concerned about artificial sweeteners. I was a Diet pop gal for over 40 years and just gave it up and replaced with mineral waters. I hope it helps with gut biome and helps to keep me from secreting insulin. I am not positive about the science behind how even artificial sweeteners cause insulin secretion but I don’t want to produce more insulin.

[@SarahsOctoberHome]

Panda has Huge, large cups.👀😂😋

[@FastingFoodie]

I cackled when they handed it to me LOL 😂

[@DebdooStudio]

Have you found it just as easy to fast when you eat in the AM?

[@FastingFoodie]

Personally, I like knowing I have my eating window later in the day. It's something to look forward to. So, if I were to eat just in the morning (I do on rare occasions) it's harder.

[@Jasapan-u4s]

I keep my window open later as well. It seems to work best for eating with family and then wind down for the evening and then sleep a large part of my fast away

[@Chelseathemittenmomma]

how the heck are you not starving ??? or eat when the kiddos eat?!
