He looks like the average guy. Worse than most guys without kids. Don’t encourage him.

Lol! I love this. Where is he? I loved that other thread.

NP. Love it too. There are lots of MSDBs in my life right now so it's nice to have company.

Not msdb, you will not unless you are insane with it.

Technically with ANY weight loss, you will lose a combination of water, fat and muscle. You cannot tell your body what to get rid of. However, intermittent fasting does not increase/decrease the rate of muscle loss on it's own. A deficiency in protein will increase muscle loss during any caloric deficit.

I really wish the people who posted in this forum would do just a LITTLE bit of research before posting nonsense like "fasting is starving yourself."

So you're arguing there's some science behind "fasting" versus not eating. Lol, okay.

There is actually science behind fasting. It is a different practice than reducing calories by dieting but eating all day long and your body handles it differently.

Google fasting and cancer and fasting and longevity as well. Lots of science out there. Or you could just remain ignorant and argumentative.

Google restricted calorie diets and longevity. Mice live twice as long on half-calorie diets. But they're miserable, and people aren't mice.

Yes, and most of the people here aren't counting macros.

Huh?

Sorry for the title. I don't believe that describes you but wanted to ask more questions because you've been doing this so long it seems sustainable for you guys.

You said 2 things that I'm curious about, if you wouldn't mind explaining more. You've got a maintenance and a weight loss regimen. I'm curious how often you and/or your wife find yourselves having to move back to the weight-loss fasting approach.

Also, what do you eat on nonfasting days? Are there any limits on the hours you eat or what you eat?

Thanks!
