Have u ladies tried fasting?!

Question

Did u loose alot of weight?

Answer

I do 16 hour fast, 8 hours of eating. So if you get a good nights sleep, which is also Super important to weight loss, it’s only 8 hours of fasting. Sleep is super important because when you don’t sleep enough, your body emits hormones that cause you to binge, bloat, crave and gain. Second most important is hydration. It is the base line for everything. Water balances out salt and sugar so you don’t retain water. It fuels your cells. You name it. Eating clean, foods that walk on the earth and grow on the earth. Less processed foods. Now don’t do a complete 180 or you will be miserable and crave what you are denying yourself. Add in better foods. And eventually your body will let go of what no longer serves it. You didn’t gain it over night and you won’t lose it over night. The main thing is the mental aspect. You can’t hate yourself skinny. Having a supportive environment, stop being the mean girl and figuring out why we have used food in the past to comfort, stuff down feeling, numb ourselves avoid feelings etc. we carry our stories on our body. Our body has been through everything. Abuse, trauma, birthing children, you name it. We all have our why and we all have a past. Letting go of what no longer serves you is the next step and telling that shit go. You’ve got this. No more victims mentality. You are not a victim, you are victorious, a warrior and survivor. No more excuses.

Answer

I did intermittent fasting. I lost a good amount of weight. I also changed my diet, exercised, and drank more water

Answer

I’ve tried intermittent fasting and I think it’s great, I didn’t really lose weight doing it but experienced lowering of my blood pressure and I find that if I skip breakfast I am not as hungry throughout the day. 
The best plan I’ve ever been on was the slow carb diet from tim Ferris’ 4 hour body book. I lost about 30 lbs in 8 weeks without any exercise (1.5 mile walk daily but that was just my routine to get to and from work).
I think you have to try a few things to see how your body responds. I generally lose a lot of weight if I drop my carbs to below 75gms a day. 
It’s challenging but it works.

Answer

You will only lose weight if you have a calorie deficit. Intermittent fasting would only work if you were not stuffing your face during your non-fasting hours. Intuitive eating has been the best weight loss tool for me.

Answer

As long as you’re in a calorie deficit, it can work.

Answer

Yes every year for Ramadan I lose weight but I gain it back when the month is done

Answer

It's not for every body and for some it can have the opposite desired effect, you can gain weight. For some people your body thinks there's a famine and tries to conserve whatever it can in stored energy, fat.
