[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But does it actually work?[/quote] Yes, but not if you gorge yourself with food during your eating window. [/quote] Exactly. I IF because I count and restrict calories. I find it much much easier to eat a low calorie diet when I fast. In order to stay a healthy weight at 45, I fast for at least 18hre, restrict carbs, count calories and don’t drink. This way of eating also keeps me mentally healthy and off my antidepressants. I also throw in a monthly 24hr fast. I’d like to get to 48hrs.[/quote] I was only able to do [b]24-72 hour fasts [/b]when my husband was travelling and I was going into the office - to many folks home now who don't want me fasting (my children) or wouldn't understand (my husband). I feel as if it ended up being a secret and that's just stupid.[/quote] This is disordered and stupid.[/quote]
