just keep reminding yourself of the reason why you're doing the fast every single hour. Think of the positives, and then think of the damage you've done to your body from your addiction. Keeping these things in mind makes it easier.

I've found that fasting is much easier when you first make dietary changes like completely cutting out sugar and flour. It takes several days and the sugar addiction is gone. That's the trick - just cutting it down doesn't work.

[@smokayman]

I started Keto almost by accident. I came across a random video on YT about why sugar is bad, and decided to cut it out. And since carbs are converted to sugar, I cut those out too. I slowly began exploring keto more and more, and over time, developed an actual keto diet. Now, I'm not a heavy person, usually coming in around 170lb~ but I dropped to 150 in a couple weeks on keto. My anxiety disappeared, my heart palpitations disappeared, my cravings disappeared, and my insomnia disappeared. All by eating well (no carbs/sugar) and doing intermittent fasting. But it's all about the mindset. This is by far the easiest and most effective way to lose weight, but you need the discipline and power to tell your cravings *NO* because without the power to control your "wants", you will fail.

I’ve fasted on and off for a few years now, thing is, the more often you do it, the better you get at it. I’ve done 3, 5, 7 and 10 day water fasts. For me the 3 day fast is the hardest to do. But, because I KNOW exactly what happens when you wake up on day 4 and that is the insane surge of energy and clarity, it’s like the reward of winning ! Day 5 is even better and invariably, if I’d decided beforehand to do a 5 day, at this point I don’t want this feeling to stop, I want 2 more days of this before starting to feed again. I reached a point when I look forward to a fast more than I look forward to breaking my fast. It’s amazing how liberating this is.

Eat one cookie and the whole bag disappears. I have been eating ketovore and one meal a day for 2 years. I am on day 6 of a 7 day water fast right now. I was starting to eat sweets again and getting out of control. Had to detox and get the carbs out of my system. I will break my fast tomorrow on Christmas Day. It feels good to be back in control.

My story is much like everyone else but I wanted to add that among the many benefits of fasting including weight management, you really can't underestimate the anti-inflammatory effects and how many different issues in your body that can resolve. For about two years now, I've been doing OMAD (One.Meal.A.Day) in a 2 hours window from 5-7pm. I also do a prolonged water fast for 3 to 5 days once a month. (Sometimes I skip...) Two issues resolve for me were chronic pain (under pressure) in my knee and psoriasis. I could not put weight on my knee for the longest time due to an injury. One night, I knelt down at my bed and accidentally put pressure on my bad knee. I instinctively winced and backed my weight off....only to realize it didn't hurt. So I put more weight on it and then lifted my other knee so ALL of my weight was on that knee and it was fine. No pain ever again after two doctors told me I was "...just getting old..." Psoriasis isn't and never will be completely cured however it's very sporadic, localized and almost unnoticeable to me or anyone else. As soon as I trip up and start eating more than one meal a day and don't do a prolonged fast for a few months, the psoriasis immediately starts to flare up. Finally and almost more importantly, this new way of eating rebooted my ability to identify true hunger and satiety. For the longest time, I never felt full ever. My wife would ask me how I could eat so much. I couldn't ever stop eating and just say "Ok, I've eaten enough". To me, full was "stuffed to the point of bloating". After about 5-6 months from starting this new lifestyle, I started to become aware of when I was ACTUALLY hungry and requiring nutrients. When I do eat, I'm only just now starting to really tune into my body and understand the signals that say "We're full!". It's unbelievable. The best part about people like Dr. Jamnadas, Dr. Robert Lustig and KZbinr Dorian Wilson and all others rewriting what we know about how our bodies use the food we put into it is not only the information but it provides validation. When the people around you say "What? You don't eat for 3 days?? Why are you starving yourself? Do you have an eating disorder? You need to eat 3 meals a day!!" you've got the data to back up your life choice. Where is theirs?

[@chantalhignell4074]

I've been addicted to food all my life. I started fasting on my 30th birthday (10 days ago). I do intermittent fasting for now and hoping to do a 72 hour fast soon. After only 3 days, my energy improved immensely and my inflammation in my nose I have had for many years was completely gone. I can breathe through my nose better and sleep way better as a result. I have had heart palpitations since my first pregnancy (5 years ago now) and I haven't had them at all since fasting. My symptoms of depression and anxiety are completely gone and even my ADHD symptoms have changed drastically. My motivation is so strong, I'm cleaning my house like crazy and getting everything done. My patience with my kids is so good now and I'm rarely irritated. My body pain is going away as well and I feel very light on my feet. I didn't change my diet, I just started fasting but I noticed the last 4 days I have been actively craving proteins and veg during my eating window instead of reaching for sugar and carbs like I always did before. It feels so easy because I feel so good like he said. I fill myself with healthy whole unprocessed foods during my eating window and fast easily without much hunger at all. This is changing my life and I know I can keep going and eventually work towards some longer fasts. I watched all this doctors videos and especially when I'm fasting, watching him helps. Feeling better than I have in my whole life.

I agree with you, it is very dissapointing. And even though the commenter above is right, we may not be our body, but we are not ourselves when we are not comfortable with our body. We are in the exact same boat. I am 29 with the same height and used to be the same weight as you at 145 with great will power watching what and how much I ate, exercising, and doing intermittent fasting (without realizing). Life happened; I got married, had kids, and then went to school and ballooned to my max of 195. I had gone vegan a for 4 months this past July and dropped down to 161 in the first 2 months and stopped vegan in November with all the birthdays and holidays and I am back at 175.6. However, I started losing so much hair being vegan no matter how many beans and lentils I ate for protein and even though my cholesterol & triglycerides improved I became prediabetic. I am trying to go back to intermittent fasting and follow a paleo lifestyle instead as Dr. Jamnadas recommends to prevent further weight gain and to lose weight to go back to those 145 lbs OR have a similar or better physique than did back then even if I weigh a little more.

[@ebbyc1817]

​@@Ash2beauty I wrote a long comment and lost it. Deleted by mistake. This is a different thought... Reading yours and the other commenter's comment, I started thinking... It never occurs to us that we could be bigger. We always think or act like, the weight we are is the maximum we will ever be. We focus on losing weight, forgetting that we could gain weight. And then we gain weight, and we think that weight is the maximum we will ever be, And then we gain weight, and we think That weight is the heaviest we will ever be... We never think, if I keep doing x, in x months, I will be x times heavier. We always think, if I could just do y, I would be y times lighter. If we focused on maintaining weight, we would save ourselves so much angst. And everything we see or read says the same thing, lose weight, lose weight, lose weight. No one says, maintain weight, maintain weight. If we focused on maintaining our weight, at whatever weight we are, we would have that much less weight to lose, or no weight to lose at all.

I started watching Dr.Fung, a Canadian nephrologist who has impressive studies on intermittent fasting. I jumped right into an 18:6, then switched over to 20:4 4-5 days a week. I lost 40 lbs in 4 months and just finished a 7-day water fast, which I lost 13 lbs. My cravings, b**chiness, chest pains, high blood pressure, joint pains, fatigue gone. I just started a 30-day, 5-mile walk challenge and plan to start strength training afterward. This video is so timely, and I've added this Dr. to my essential subscriptions list. Edit to add: I was a heavy carb, processed food, sugary drinks eater. I cut all of it out and incorporated a very boring eating regiment. A cup of coffee in the am (no sugar, cream), break my fast with a green salad. Snack on hummus and sweet peppers or apple and nut butter, then almost always have fish and roasted veggies for dinner. Outside cup of coffee, I drink water. I still allow myself occasional food and wine with events with friends and family, but I've only done that 4x in 5 months.

You will see results within six months.

Hi E Fowler it's Dr pradigs video on intermittent fasting Also Dr Jason Fung on fasting your first fast should be two days then eat no flour then a series of one day fasting off and on with only one meal per day OMAD it is tough at first but you get used to it quick and you will NOT be hungry after 48 hours totally worth every bit of the small bouts of hunger you will experience it has to do with grelin Dr Fung will explain good luck and good health😀

[@kimberlyannlisondra6828]

I was addicted to tobacco for 30 yrs. I've watch a lot of your videos, Sir. Learn about my self and made me decide to stop. It all came from will power. You're right Doc, it's most difficult on the first 3 days after that, it'll comes much easier. But I'm still struggling because I'm still addicted to caffeine and sugar. Thank you, Dr. for this. I will start to fight this addiction.

[@iche9373]

Did you know that Semaglutide, a diabetic medication, can treat addiction, too?

[@carolcote2196]

Find a replacement "sugar" that you can tolerate. I've tried several, and have had GI issues with them. I investigated Allulose (it's a natural sugar derived from fruits, then processed so it does not affect diabetes.) This allulose has no flavour, dissolves just like cane sugar, and does Not give me GI issues or leave a nasty after taste in my mouth. It is pricey though. If you haven't tried stevia, it's good, just go easy as a little makes th food you want to sweeten, good. But too much will make it taste bitter.

My dad used to be a drug addict and it ultimately ended his life years later. I used to walk around and say I would never be a addict because of his example and I used to pride myself on being able to quit smoking/chewing and drinking cold turkey. Anything in my life I had to prove that I could drop it easily or it was a invisible addiction and that's when I realized that I was addicted to foods 4 years ago. I use unhealthy foods for emotional support and it still controls my life. I sat here thinking I need to just get weight-loss surgery, cut up my stomach into a smaller shape and the craving will decrease eventually. Once I can do the detox healthly after the pregnancy I'm going for it I want to be a leading example for my kids of how to be healthy.

[@darla5371]

I took my BIL years ago to his first NA meeting. When it came time to introduce myself to the room, I explained to them I was there as a support person. That while I wasn’t addicted to drugs or alcohol I did have an addiction. I explained my food addiction and how challenging it is because we can’t just walk away from food. Everyone in the room came up to me after and said they never viewed food that way. It was enlightening to them.

After nearly 8 years employed at an alcohol and drug rehabilitation center I can attest to the fact that not enough is truly understood about how our physiology has been weaponized against us by big pharma , food companies and the powers that be. The victim that struggles with addiction, which is the symptom of the problem, is vilified more so than the victimizer. Addiction can take on many forms and affects far more “normal” people outside of just drugs and alcohol.

[@theheartweights]

I came to this video after subscribing to Jason Fung. I have found fasting to be the only true way to lose stubborn body fat. No more diet, no more counting calories. Intermittent fasting is the key . This week I’ve done two 36 hour fasts after doing 18/6 the last month. In a month I’ve lost 11 pounds, another 12 to go to my goal weight. Fasting takes a bit of getting used to, but now 36 hours are easy to me and as long as I keep hydrated with electrolytes drink tea with a small bit of milk, I’m good. The benefits are phenomenal better sleep, mental clarity, more energy, less overall crankiness and stress. I love this doctors talks, very humorous, and he absolutely tells the truth. Big food, big Pharma big government have us where they want us. Sick tired, and docile.

[@VioletIndigo3]

When fasting how do you find the energy for physical activity (workouts) and work? When I fast, although I lose weight, I feel a little depleted on energy despite staying hyydrated.

[@theheartweights]

@@VioletIndigo3 Good question. This doctor and Jason Fung explain it all very clearly. Remember when you’re in a fasting state, your body is now using the fat reserves for energy and it’s a cleaner burn than regular glucose. I regularly work out while fasting with no fatigue. You’re taking electrolytes right? Salt, magnesium?Maybe it may affect you if you did a longer fast like 7 days but I’m not sure about that as I only really stick to 36/48 hour fasts .Good luck!

[@VioletIndigo3]

@theheartweights I feel low energy when I workout on a breakfast lunch fast. I'll try more electrolytes. Thanks for the suggestion! I also read that it may take a few weeks of regular fasting schedule to feel the energy spikes from fasting. So I'll just have to experiment longer!

Thank you for sharing your exeprience. I’m on a 3 day water fast and am at 84 hrs now about to break my first ever water fast. The reason I started was after watching dr. Jamnadas’ video on fasting and then watching his other lectures I started cutting carbs, then doing IF and finally my first 3 day water fast. I’m not unhealthy but I can be very addicted to sugar and basically dopamine in general. The reason for starting this journey was to optimize my health and get off the addiction bandwagon. Seeing that one 3 day water fast might not do the trick but perhaps a second or third might gives me perspective. So thank you also for that.
