[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What I don't understand is that some of the advice is to fast....if someone doesn't have the discipline to NOT snack, how do they have the discipline to not eat ANYTYHING the entire morning or whatever?[/quote]

It does sound counterintuitive. I would recommend reading about IF. Obesity Code, Fast Feast Repeat, Life in the Fasting Lane, Delay Don’t Deny are good. Other folks have recommended Mindy Pelz. I read her book too, which is focused on fasting for women; her approach is based on hormone fluctuations through your cycle (or post menopausal hormonal changes). I liked the book, but it was a bit too complicated for me to follow. There also several podcasts on IF if that’s preferable.

When you do a clean fast (plain water, plain sparkling water, black coffee, black tea, green tea - no milk or sugar or artificial sweeteners, no flavored teas, no gum or mints) it really is not that hard to go long periods of time without eating. I have young kids and work from home 2-3 days a week and snacked all throughout the day…literally like 10-12 times a day, and this has been surprisingly easy for me. I did a 20 hour fast twice this week with no issues. Otherwise I am going 18 hours (6 hour eating window).

And the benefits are not limited to weight loss. [/quote]
