All "successful" diets have one thing in common. "CICO" Calories In < Calories Out. Atkins, Keto, Intermittent Fasting, etc
I am dragging at the gym if i havent had some carbs couple hours prior. Can't imagine trying to exercise without food for 2 whole days.
I was intermittent fasting for a whle and worked for me but i quit because i had trouble getting to my daily protein goal in those 8 hours. Didn't like feeling sick/full all day after cramming 1000 cal/meal (x2)... tough to do when eating chicken breasts, veggies, and my carbs (sweet potatoes, rice, pasta).
Just track your cals, eat "intuitively," and exercise! If you're not losing weight, you're eating too much for your amount of movement. That simple! And yes, you can overconsume "healthy foods." 1000cal of boiled chicken/broc = 1000 cal ice cream (for our intents and purposes.)Last edited by BlackHogDown; 08-23-2019, 05:32 AM.

I'm already carrying around a decent amount of "Food" on my body. Gonna use that up as much as I can then get back to a more "normal" eating schedule.
Once you get your body switched from running off carbs to running off it's Fat Stores, the Fat drops off pretty quick. The prolonged fasting periods are for just this, feeding off your body fat.
I noticed no difference at the gym yesterday after 30hrs without eating. But I always workout on an empty stomach anyways. Especially when doing cardio. Ran a mile yesterday and worked chest and back like normal.
I'll eat lunch today and that will hold me over for a while again. I feel pretty normal right now actually and I'm on hour 43.
Quit coffee too. That's worse than the fasting. Little headache from caffeine withdrawal, but I don't feel tired at all on morning 2 without it.

I've always been short and stocky, but athletic. I've always played sports growing up, Raced MX and Supermoto, Boxed, Wrestled, etc.
I'm 5'8" and 229lb right now. 33% body fat. Pretty fat for me, but still pretty active. I dont have a huge gut or anything and I always have pretty good muscle. Wear 36" waist jeans with my pistol inside the waistband. I'll get back into my 33's in no time.
My "Fight Weight" is 180. Even when I get there, I sure don't look skinny.
The way I see it, I'm healthy enough to try something extreme like this. Nothing to loose but fat LOL
