7 months ago I was 30 lbs overweight with extremely high blood pressure. I'm only 34. I have 2 kids and knew I would die if I didn't change, leaving them behind. I started with 24 hour fasting. Lost weight but still bad blood pressure. Started cardio, dropped 30 lbs and lowered blood pressure to almost normal. Pulled my hamstring sprinting and had to quit for a month or 2. Gained weight again. Completely changed my diet and started lifting. Now I've gained 20 lbs back with low body fat. Blood pressure is 105 over 65 and resting heartrate of 55 bpm. Keep at it everyone. You can change just like she did, but find what works for you.

I'll resume after Christmas. I wish you well with your plan. Oh I dont call it at "fasting day" in between , I call it a "Healing day". My body has a chance to heal on those days that I dont eat.

Her biggest tips: 1. Distraction is so helpful, stay distracted to stay on your fast 2. Meal Prep beforehand so you don't reach for something not nutritious 3. Eat foods that are nutritious, not just empty calories 4. Remember why you started (when you're ready and determined, you won't give up!) 5. Drink lots and lots of water and zero calorie drinks that you like, to get through fasting days 6. Bonus tip: lift some weight or do weight-bearing exercise, don't just run! 7. Bonus bonus tip: have a really supportive loving friend or partner :-)

I know these comments are old. But it’s interesting to me to hear you’re same height as myself and we all have a different weight preferences. I’m currently 142. I use to think 135 was my preferred weight. But lately as I gained a few pounds I don’t feel or see a difference. Not sure where I gained the weight. But 142 isn’t as bad as it was when younger. Everything still fits the same. I don’t like being under 130 bc then I feel too skinny and I start getting all the “are you sick” questions. 🤷🏻‍♀️. Also, now that I’m 37, I started to take vegan bloating/ indigestion pills. And they’ve worked great! Maybe that’s why a few pounds haven’t affected me. I am not sure. Good luck with everyone’s goal weight :)

[@surprisinglyplainsoap5676]

Intermittent fasting has some less talked about cons. I have found a more healthy alternative is to eat low fat , carb and sugar free on the “fasting days” with plenty of protein and non starchy veggies. The THM eating plan is an even more balanced approach toward food. I think the “ intermittent fasting “ might be more necessary for those needing to lose weight quickly for surgery, but it’s important that the body is ridding itself of fat storage rather than the needed healthy fat that ladies bodies naturally need. I highly recommend Trim Healthy because they educated me on how to eat to keep my body healthy ( not simply skinny)❤️

[@miaschu8175]

I'm in my early 50s and thinking of doing something similar, though not as extreme. (I'm just getting through a stressful situation first.) I'd heard of the 5/2. Five days eating sensibly, then 2 days only eating about 500 cals. The thinking behind it is that strict dieting doesn't always work well because your body goes into starvation mode after 48 hours. Also, depriving yourself can lead to demotivation and giving up, or binge eating. I don't think I can do the every other day intermittent, especially zero cals! But, I'm interested in the way you did it.

@@miaschu8175 5 / 2 doesn't work. It's simply a fact. Watch Dr Bergs videos about the subject here on youtube. Dr Berg is one of the main informative persons. It takes 3 days for ketosis to get started, that is when you run out of your sugar. Ketosis is great so you know. Your brain will be bright. You will not be hungry, and this is why Keto diet works.

Im finding it really easy to. Love your story 😊

They have been fasting since ancient times in the Bible. They would fast to get spiritually physically and mentally stronger. Some people will say it’s starving yourself or making you weaker but it’s actually the contrary. I’m glad you found that out. You have grown and gone through a lot. Your a very beautiful person to share this with folks. Thanks a lot for that.

[@JMrealgamer]

antwnis94 well people obviously care about weight/fat loss and being healthy. You seem to be afraid of making the connection that health and life come from the Bible which is God’s word He has honored high above His name. God’s living word personified is Jesus Christ who was here since the beginning who has seen Satan fall from heaven like lightning. But of course your a sinner so this is typical response. Without the Lord in your life Satan is your daddy. I’ll be praying for you. God doesn’t care about your doubt. It would be better for you that you didn’t doubt. Oh well if you want to live in fear then go ahead.

The abusive relationship part has touched me. I have been there. Mental abuse is the worst.

[@SynnJynn]

Glad you were able to get out of it.

[@FreeSpiritMom]

@MmKay I guess it just depends on the person. Victims of physical abusive people usually become strong, build walls and will sometimes become an abuser themselves. Victims of mental abuse have a harder time with getting better and stronger and will often feel like they need someone to make them feel loved. Once a person who was physically abused understands and wants out of their situation for them, not because someone else told them, they are done. They will kill their abuser if need be. Where as people who are mentally abused deal with it every single day. They are the weakest link

I am 17 and started off at 85.9 kg (187 pounds) I started one week ago and have already lost 2 kg (4,4 pounds) so far. I’ll update ya in a week! Wish me luck!! Update: 2nd week: another 2.5 kg Update: 3rd week: once again 2 kg down Update 4: After 3 months of doing ADF I have lost a total of 10kg (22 pounds) My feedback so far: it honestly isn‘t too hard to get thru that one day of fasting since you kinda get used to it after the first week. But where it actually gets hard to keep up with the diet is when ur on vacation. Tbh my last vacation with my family which was only a week, it was really hard to keep going since you don‘t really wanna limit yourself on vacation. That was the moment where I kinda lost it and started '‘cheating‘‘ aka eating on my fasting days and at some point even stopped fasting completely. After a while I then started gaining my weight back especially during quarantine since I was barely active and only sitting at home. I have now gained almost 7 kg back. So here are my tips for you: 1. WORKING OUT is NECESSARY! I am honestly very lazy, thats why I chose this diet but you NEED to move or just do something or else your weight loss won‘t last 2. DO NOT EAT ON YOUR FASTING DAYS! Even though ur allowed about 500cal on your fasting days. If you are someone who rlly isn‘t into counting callories, weighing portions or stopping yourself from eating more after you have started, you should really just stick to eating nothing on your fasting days. 3. DRINK LOADS ESPACIALLY LOTS OF TEA 4. TRY TO EAT KINDA HEALTHY ON UR EATING DAYS. Tbh I really wasn‘t eating the healthiest on my eating days since I didn‘t wanna limit myself on those too. So if I wanna eat choclote i am going to EAT choclate and that‘s ok, I still lost weight. BUT don‘t take it too far, this diet in my opinion is something that will really help your weight loss journey as a starter but I could not do it for the rest of my life. So just try to make it a habit for yourself to just eat less and eat healthier through this diet. 5. POWER THRU!

People, intermittent fasting is just a fad. You have to understand at the end of the day it only has to do with calories in and calories out. You need to burn more calories than you consume. Whether you eat 2000 cal a day in two meals or you eat 400 cal five times a day it’s not going to make a difference at the end of the day.

[@TheBarloboat]

It’s me IF is more than that though. It stabilizes and heals your hormones. Just watching and burning calories does not have the physiological effects that intermittent fasting does. It's not a fad. It's actually the way we as humans are built to survive. Not to mention....it works!! So, you call it what you want. But before you criticize you should do your research.

Her boy friend was a smart guy, he saw something that no one have seen, now she looks like a modal, wow good for him.

this guy right here yep that's how it works.

[@HerrPoopschitz]

this guy right here pretty sure she mentions her ‘boyfriend at the time’. Sounds like she already has.

I just wanted to comment that this video really turned my head about ADF. I had though it was too radical but I am doing it now.. it has really been amazing for me. Losing 20 lbs in 2 months.

People are too obsessed with food these days, like they're going to die if they skip a meal. Our ancestors went without food for days. Less calories = longer healthier life. Intermittent / alternate day fasting is the solution to today's obesity pandemic.

[@Graham19781]

Completely agree on all counts. ADF or time restricted eating is absolutely the solution to obesity and it’s free

[@tristantries9211]

I really struggle with ADF. I can do 23-30 hrs but I really have a hard time going longer. I've done 36 hrs a few times and a 48 ONCE but I barely made it. Idk how people can do it and keep working and functioning all the time

[@Cryptolorian]

@@tristantries9211 Hold on, you don't really need to do any longer than 16-18 hours, if you can skip a meal every day and just fast for 16 hours, then that alone should bring you a lot of benefits. You can spice things up and do a full 24 hour fast once a week if you can.

[@miaschu8175]

There's no point in doing 48 hours as that pushes your body into starvation mode and it won't want to get rid of its fat stores. The best diet for you is the one that you feel comfortable doing, as that will be the one you can stick to. The 5/2 diet is 5 days of a balanced diet and 2 days of almost fasting - about 500 cals (for a woman). The 2 days don't have to be consecutive. It's not going to be as fast as the ADF, but it's doable. There are no restrictions, but you're supposed to make sure you eat healthily with only occasional treats - not takeaways, crisps and chocolate!
