I thought fasting was okay, but not for too long? I don't know too much about this, but if recall correctly you'll lose weight during the fast but your body begins to burn calories more slowly?

This is bullshit, consider that even if you were to maintain your mean MBR through the whole fasting (Which will not happen) you'll barely get into a 28*(2000)= 56,000 Kcal deficit that is about 5 kg of fat, some muscle and other vital tissues.

Slow and constant wins this race.

[Anonymous No.9250755]

>>9248119

The advantage of a water fast over just lowering your caloric intake is that your body actually enters proper starvation mode (ketosis), which slows down the breakdown of muscle relative to fat. On just a low calorie diet with a normal amount of carbs, your body doesn't really stay in ketosis and breaks down some muscle for energy - whereas water fasting puts you into ketosis, so as your weight drops your bodyfat also drops more steeply while lean muscle mass stays roughly the same.

That said, you could still maintain ketosis while eating a fat source, for example a green salad with sugar-free vinaigrette. There are some other advantages to "pure" fasts in terms of the immune system, though.

Well I was already on the lower end of dad bod so visually it might not have been all that impressive.

However that was a true 16.2lbs of weight loss. That is factoring in the weight added by refeeding and stabilizing out. The point was to show you don't wither away into a weak skeleton or go crazy after a week. It will very rapidly burn fat and I didn't do a single damn thing but light walking/sitting at that particular job.

It proves that slowing of the metabolism is either complete bullshit or so insignificant it doesn't bother mentioning.

That is probably why it was so miserable. Just enough calories to keep the body from entering ketosis. Probably enough food to make the mindset of fasting damn difficult. It is far far easier to eat nothing and just stick with that then eat a little something but only so much.

Basically fasting like this will eat at your muscle tissue, and when you DO go back to food your metabolism is so fucked that you'll most likely gain back what you lost.

Does taking supplements help when it comes fasting? Should I start taking caffeine pills? I don't drink coffee or any caffeinated drinks.
