[@NLR759]

The thing I love most about fasting is that it frees up SO MUCH TIME during my day. When I fast, I am not spending any time shopping or cooking food. I can do other things to get out of the house or distract myself from thoughts about food. Unlike calorie counting, which essentially makes me obsessed with thoughts about food, meal planning, and looking up everything I eat on some app to figure out calories. Fasting is definitely the way to go!

@Kane Can you say "extreme gas"???

[@violetwade6528]

That sounds really disordered. Sorry, seems to be working for you but fasting during the day (starving yourself to save calories for later) sounds like a one way ticket to binge-eating disorder.

[@joannathesinger770]

@@violetwade6528 Apparently you're behind the information curve regarding Intermittent Fasting. You aren't "saving up calories to eat later"...you are not eating for a specific period of time, then eating within a specific window in order to keep your insulin as low as possible during your fasting window. It's ONLY when insulin is low that your body can access its fat stores and utilize them for energy. You can have whatever you'd like to eat within your eating window...but the hormones ghrelin and leptin prevent you from binging during your eating window. When you Intermittent Fast, you engage all sorts of healthy behaviors AND can reverse Type 2 diabetes which is epidemic in our society today.

crazy story. my dad lost his drivers license 10 Or so years ago because of the diabetes and it wasn't safe for him to drive. he basically pulled a cartman. about 2 years ago at the age of 88 he had quit eating and his alzheimers was reaching a terrible point. we thought he was getting ready to die. this spring his doctor declared him cured of diabetes. he is 90 now so this week I discovered this lecture series and it answered some things we didn't understand. 1. 10 years ago he weighed 230lb, he now weighs under 180lb but he has zero sagging skin. 2. he cured his diabetes 3. his alzheimers is A typical. he still recognizes us all. he seems to remember the past the best but he can still carry on a conversation, and other things, 4. the last check on his heart disease found an unusually healthy heart. thanks for sharing this, I'm looking forward to greatly increasing his fat intake to see if we can bring him back a bit.

The biggest obstacle to fasting is that it requires discipline and willpower. Stopping eating is the same as stopping drinking alcohol or stopping smoking. Denying yourself of pleasure is hard. Overeating is a form of addiction.

[@majo3796]

It is harder than quitting smoking, because you can quit smoking cold turkey and kind of forget about it eventually, you cannot just quit eating completely.

As a ex smoker I totally agree. I strongly believe that fasting is easier for ex addicts.

Rarely in today's healthcare do you have a doctor advise you with cutting-edge (thousands of years old) diet modifications that actually work. Not only that but it's balanced. You can still enjoy an occasional this or that, which is what makes dietary changes so hard long term.

[@djborum9014]

Last year I tried lower calories and low carbs and more exercise, it wasn’t until I did intermittent fasting did my weight started coming off faster. I lost 25 pounds. Beginners mistake is eating too much during your 8 hours of non fasting. 6 months later during holiday I stopped fasting and gained 10 pounds back. Now I am back to training my brain to get back to healthy eating and IF. It 100% works and you can keep the weight off. I used Dr Fung videos for mental coaching.

I started IF back in 2012 and do it daily between 16-20 hours. This technique has probably had one of the most profound effect on my health. Combine it was exercise and it is extremely potent. Lost around 20kg, feeling great and have never looked back.

[@intermittentmaniac3943]

TheNovelty8theory nice to hear . I did IF for 4 months and lost 10 kg and was hitting the weights on a fasted state and felt great , heaps energy . I ate between 4 pm to 10 pm but recently I started getting stomach aches and as it's turned out mr doctor says I have an ulcer so I'm disappointed that he told me to eat more regularly to absorb the stomach acids and now I've gone off my IF and I feel terrible so why do u think this happened , I'm wondering if there is a correlation between fasting and ulcers . Also I'm trying to find out if I can keep fasting even with an ulcer . Any suggestions would b appreciated thx

[@TheNovelty8theory]

intermittentmaniac strange that, would have thought fasting was a way to reduce stomach acid and actually allow the ulcer to heal more effectively, like a rest period for the digestive system. What was your diet like while doing IF? Could this have been a cause?

[@faismasterx]

Might be your diet that's causing the stomach ulcers. What kinds of food do you eat?

[@Grammapamm]

@@intermittentmaniac3943 Look into Master Cleanse. I think it originally was for a person with ulcers.

May be related to the late hours you were eating? Did you eat up till 10 pm then go to sleep? That will give you acid reflux. It might promote acid production.

Dear Dr. Fung. I've studied your work for about a year and a half before I self-experimented on water fasting. I started with a few short; 3, 5, and 7 day water fast, before going for my ultimate goal, of a 40 day water fast. I thought it would be interesting, to check my blood glucose, twice per day and my blood keytones once per day. I was shocked by my results. My blood glucose never went higher than 96 and no lower than 64 on my blood glucose meter. My blood ketone went as high as 7.4 and simply went back and forth, not going lower than 4.0. Sadly, I only was able to make it to the 36th day of my water fast, due to the most extreme nausea I've ever had in my 51 years of my life, due to contracting COVID-19 from a family member. I broke my water fast with some chicken bone broth. I ended up being hospitalized from COVID-19 Not once was I hungry after the 7th day without food. I lost 48 pounds in the 36 day water fast, and I know, with 100% certainty, I would have gone the remaining 4 days, to fulfill my water fast goal of 40 days, had I not gotten extremely ill. I know water fasting works! Thank you Dr. Fung!

I've been fasting and eliminating sugar/carbs for a little over a month and i've lost weight and my blood sugar has gone way down.

Keep consistently doing intermittent fasting and keeping your carbs low and very soon you can say 'bye-bye' to metformin as well!!
