[quote=Anonymous]IFing is safe and effective. Real fasting - multiple days of no calories - is not. Big difference. I IF'd a few years ago and found it tolerable as a diet and effective for slow and steady weight loss. Two days a week, I didn't eat after dinner on, say Tuesday, then skipped breakfast and lunch Wednesday and ate a normal dinner on Wed. Google "Eat Stop Eat" and "Brad Pilon Blog" to get more info. It is definitely not for anorexics. The fasting period is so short, relatively speaking, that it does no metabolic damage, and since the caloric reduction on a weekly basis is about 20%, it works the same as a regular 500-calorie-per-day reduction - but without the need to count calories on a daily basis.[/quote]
