@@LuluTheMiniMuseAt the beginning of my intermittent fasting ,it was just 16 hours ,then 18 hours. But,I have finally determined to do 23 hours and I am very adapted to it right now. I eat healthy food like mackerel, eggs,avocados, extra olive oil, olives, organic, unpasteurized, unfiltered apple cider vinegar, and vegetables( tomatoes and cucumbers are my best veggies)and I drink black tea with no sugar or artificial sweeteners. Right now ,I consume virgin ,organic coconut oil( I add it to my black tea). Healthy oils like extra olive oil and virgin,organic coconut oil make me satiated for a long time. I sometimes eat cheese and nuts like walnuts, Brazil nuts ,pecan and macadamia nuts. I don't want to cheese and nuts every day becuase they are trigger foods. I really overonsume them without stopping. I don't eat bread ,wheat products, rice of any type, no grains in my diet, no starchy vegetables like potatoes or any vegetables growing underground, no sugar of any type ,no artificial sweeteners, and no fruits .

Thank you so much. I started fasting about 3years ago. I was desperate as my health was going downhill fast. My first juice fast was 3 days, and i felt so sick with the mucous coming out, I went for 7 days. After the first fast I was hooked. I juice every single day and eat a high raw plantbased diet. I've completed 7, 14, 21, 36 and 64 day fast, and every single time the benefits and the healing my body does is amazing.

How much fasting did you do

[@mikeblack2638]

So I have adopted biblical fasting so what that means is I prey while fasting and I just thank God for everything I have or if I have a problem or a health issue I prey while fasting that is a way to deny yourself to God and put him first and he will answer your prayers so what I do for example is maybe my dinner is at 7 then done eating by 8 so from 8 pm with no snacks untill noon next day so there is 16 hrs so then at noon I will have a lil lunch then fast again untill dinner at 7 pm so that is a total of 22 hrs fasting and preying and once you get into this type of habit just watch how your body heals itself and just watch how God will work in your life and heal you from things you are suffering from, God bless all who reads and adopts this Amen

@@blc1960 You educate yourself by learning all that you can on the right foods, recipes, choices…and what are the wrong foods and choices. Clean out your house of all the bad foods, oils, condiments, flour, sugar… Don’t eat out unless you know the food is appropriate for low carb and is quality, like a good steak with asparagus and some cauliflower… You have to devote yourself entirely. It not just fasting. Intermittent fasting is the next important step after replacing the foodstuffs. Once you are eating right and skipping the one meal so that you only eat super healthy for 6-8 hours, allowing for 16-18 hours of fasting in between, you will have made a big leap. The whole, healthy food you eat, fills you up faster, and satiates you longer. Watch KZbin videos by Dr. Fong and Dr. Mark Hyman and others.

Just for those who doubt the efficacy of this regive - I started a 16/8 regime at 60 and had a cyst on my thyroid and struggled to walk upstairs as my knees were inflamed. I now have no cyst as per my latest 63 years scan and can run up the stairs. I eat a `'no fur`' diet - so fish and fowl but no fur and no processed meats and lots of vegetables and some potatoes and corn wraps. I think the important thing is to make this approach both enjoyable and accessible. Thank you for your excellent and educative advice and anyone in doubt - just go for it!

I started fasting in early July, and lifting weights on a moderate basis. I'm down 30 pounds. Still have a ways to go to get back to where i was in my 20's, but more than half way there. Eating better - no crap has also helped big time. 👊👊

[@marilynworth997]

I have never done a long-term fast successfully. By the 2nd day, I'll crush. At 77y/o, I just completed a successful 15-day water fast. Key to success was having ketones on board before starting the fast to have fuel on board to use immediately.

[@AllyM101]

I have been on various fasting regimes for 4 years now. it is a transition thing as I am now only eating either once or twice a week. i.e. 3 days of eating every 2 weeks (Fasting 5/4/5). Whole real foods. Zero 'processed' unless I do it myself. I feel great, tonnes of energy, I exercise (cycling), I walk, I sleep well. Constant nose breathing. Cold showers daily (sometimes 2 on exercise days). Zero hygiene products i.e No soap, no shampoo, no deoderant, I brush my teeth with water. Zero bad breath, no body odour. I only change my clothes once per week, they never smell. I have a hot bath once a week/fortnight with epson salts. Weight stable, no cravings, never hungry. Planning and preparing my food on eating days is a joy. Grass Fed meat nose to tail, fish, eggs, organic veg and fruits, do my own fermenting, make my own yogurt. Zero pastuerised products. All dairy is based on raw milk. Home made Bone Broth and Kvass. Combination of Water (Structured & Blessed), coffee and green tea on fasting days. Life is a breeze and remarkably calm and stress free even though I still encounter challenging situations which in the past would cause varying degrees of distress.

I have found that 16 hours is easily achievable with about a week's acclimation (for me).

I used to eat quite healthy since December 2021, consuming collagen peptides, chlorella-spirullina, & turmeric supplements religiously, but I didn’t do the fasting yet in the past. I started to do intermittent fasting & reducing my sugar intake from everything sweet (even from fruits & honey) since December 2023. It’s 5 days a week with the range of fasting time is around 14-18 hrs, and since then I am very picky with food, I mostly eat whole foods and avoiding processed food, processed sugar & eat less carbs. I also eat food in order, so when I eat I will start with eating the veggies first, and then the fat, protein and eating carbs/ something sweet will be the last. This eating in order method causes less glucose spike after I break my fast so it makes me feel full longer and not craving so much. My hormones balance is getting so much better, my acnes are gone. I’m 39 years-old but people will guess like I’m 25 years-old. I’m 5’ tall and my weight stay stable in between 95-97 lbs. I’m very happy with what I’m doing. 😃

Dr. Hyman should have elaborated in detail regarding the process of autophagy that occurs during fasting. Dr. Yoshinori Ohsumi won the Nobel Prize in 2016 for Medicine or Physiology for uncovering the mechanisms and functioning of the process of autophagy which is triggered by and accelerates during fasting. Dr. Ohsumi discovered that our body has an intrinsic native intelligence inextricably intertwined in our DNA that instructs the body, among other things, to heal itself and maintain health. The natural process of autophagy is central to and a key biological process that makes fasting so effective and powerful in fixing and reversing many ailments especially during prolonged fasts.

I've been intermittent fasting since 2 weeks, mostly OMAD (one meal a day). During fasting I drink coffee with heavy cream, water of course and some lime juice. Plus I've been doing Low Carb High Fat LCHF for 4 months now. Since starting this early October 2021, where my BMI was at 29, I lost 27 lbs (12.5kg) and my BMI dropped to 24. My pants fit again. I had to buy a new belt a couple of weeks ago. So only on LCHF I lost 7-8kg (17 lbs), then I introduced IF, and started to speed things up. Lost another 4kg (9 lbs) within 2 weeks. Of course stop alcohol as much as possible. A good way to start IF is going LCHF. Get fat adapted with natural and healthy fats, and skip breakfast. Stop snacking.
