I had six pancakes, eight slices of bacon, two eggs, some maple syrup, and a huge doner

How many calories? >2000, by how much would depend on the size of the pancakes.

6 small pancakes could be ~60 kcal each, so 360, compared to 6 large pancakes at ~150kcal each, which is 900. 8 slices of bacon @ 50kcal/slice is 400, then two eggs is >=140 (by how much depends on cooking method), a huge doner could be anywhere from 500-1000kcal per se

so >2000 would be my estimate. that's a lot of tennis my boy

It's much easier actually. If your goal is losing fat, you're better off with eating a big dinner and then just not eat anything past 7 or 8 pm.

I started intermittent fasting since I got promoted, so about a month ago.
I'm doing it because of a study I read on mice how the one that had IF did better in mental tasks and looked younger too. Even if it doesn't transpose to humans I'm teaching myself self-control and hunger induced anxiety.

I sort of fast on occasion. Last Wednesday I got through the entire day on just 2 cookies and 2 cups of coffee. I'm trying to lose weight, and so far I've been seeing great results.

I'm a bit worried about health though. Not too sure if this is the right thing to do. Buts its not too extreme. Some days I get 1200 calories, others 900 calories. I eat once per day so I go most of the day without eating. Its been pretty effective.

Why fast on a weekend? That's when everyone is getting together and going out or having meals together. I do my fasting in the middle of the week, when no one has time or wants to do anything, that way I'm free to have fun on the weekend.

I use buillion, but a clear broth is very low calorie regardless of how you make it

>> No.7608555

>>7608535

If it's a properly made meat-based broth (chicken, beef, veal, etc.) then it ought to contain plenty of gelatin which would likely push the calorie count over 15. Shitty broths or broth-like substances (bullion cubes) rarely have this gelatin. That's why they have such a watery texture.

>> No.7608599

that would be stock, not broth.

Broth is simply stock which has been seasoned so that it can be served. It still ought to contain gelatin.

no. it has been clarified, and the protein mostly removed

jell-o is gelatin, which is what is removed from broth.
