intermittent fasting ?

Question

I’m trying out intermittent fasting and I’m 16 years old . If you have tried it pls tell me if it is worth doing , also if it was successful with you can u tell me how long it took and how much weight you lost . I’m doing 18/6 I’ve been doing it for 3 days and I’ve been finding it okay 👌🏻. Also could u recommend some foods as I’m new to this and I don’t know what I will have to eat in the 6 hours I can . Thanks :) x

Answer

Initially it worked, but it was all water weight. As soon as that dropped off, it was soooo slooooow to lose weight. I had better results with eating small meals and snacks every two hours and doing beginners yoga 3x a week.
 For numbers sake, with fasting I lost 10lbs in one month... it all came back. I had really bad headaches and felt miserable bc I needed more energy for my job. I was walking regularly everyday, too.
 Regularly eating every 2 hours (I ate yogurt + granola for breakfast, fruit for snack, anything I wanted for lunch but it had to be reasonable portions, healthyish salty snack, then a big ass homemade salad for dinner) and yoga 3x a week I lost and kept off 50+lbs in a few months. Lots of energy, felt happy and healthy.

Answer

You’re 16 and your body and metabolism are not finite. Do not do crash trends and diets. It will fuck up your metabolism. Also this was tested on young to middle aged men and has shown to have negative effects on women. If you have the means see a nutritionist/dietician to get a healthy weight loss plan and if you don’t use my fitness pal and it will give you some realistic eating goals.

I’m also starting this and am in my first couple of weeks! I think it was kinda hard initially because you’re adjusting to eating in that window and that also means adjusting the foods you eat. You definitely want to eat healthy foods and foods that keep you full longer so you’re not hungry or tempted to eat after your 6 hours. I like to eat stuff with a good amount of protein and try to limit my carbs as much as possible. I’m definitely not going keto, but i feel a lot better when i don’t eat empty carbs. Lately my favorite has been chicken or beef, and then any kind of veggie I have around. Good luck!
