Answer

I suffered from severe anorexia for over 20 years. I literally shudder when I hear that someone wants to fast to build “confidence and discipline”. I know that fasting doesn’t cause anorexia (it’s a much deeper psychological issue), however, I hate that starvation is still seen as something to be revered nowadays. It’s not discipline and will power. It’s unhealthy. Humans are meant to eat and need food as fuel. I think it is much more beneficial to use ones discipline to exercise and make healthy food choices than to try to go hours/days without food. Fasting is an unhealthy bandaid solution.

Answer

I once daylight fasted the entire month to support a college roommate for Ramadan- I committed like I have never done before, and the results were unmatched. I lost weight, I was mentally focused, and I also donated to Charity & volunteered about 5x as much as I normally did. It was profound. 
No food/drink sun-up to sun-down. We would break fast at sun-down and I recall waking at 4am one morning to bake a whole chicken and eat before the sun came up 😂😂😂.
Since then I’ll do IF twice per week at random if I feel unsatisfied with weight gain, eating habits or exercise routine. Just keep in mind that you must change LIFESTYLE- not just hop on fad diet (whether that be Keto, Atkins or fasting). Good luck!!

Answer

We have :) IF and 24 hour..

Answer

I will do intermittent fasting, but only a couple hours tops. I understand that you want to learn discipline, but fasting for days is extreme and not healthy! I try and teach myself discipline but jogging and eating HEALTHY!
