[quote=Anonymous]My wife and I have been doing IF for over 5 years not with great success. I would highly recommend reading Brad Pilon's E-book called Eat Stop Eat. It's a short read and really breaks down the science behind it. It also helps reverse the brain washing we get in this country about opposition to fasting. My wife dropped 55 pounds in 5 months doing IF and NOT working out. I'm a male, so I know no one is impressed with me losing weight, but I did drop 25 pounds when I started FWIW. I know 16:8 is really popular, but we do 2 fasts a week that range between 24 to 30 hours on non-consecutive days. If you read the scientific research in Brad's book behind why the longer fast is better than daily 16:8 it will all make sense. We continue to do IF weekly to this day for just weight regulation; in fact I'm fasting right now. It's so nice because it completely eliminates our need for counting calories and other food tracking burdens. Right now I'm 37, and I can still wear the same 34 inch waist pants that fit me in college. If you need any encouragement or other advice feel free to ask me.[/quote]
