Exactly. You’re a complete newb and act like you know everything about nutrition. 2 weeks and in here telling a folks to become anorexic because you lost some initial water weight so now it’s the end al be all. Clown shyt. You’ve done like 3 actual multi day fasts and spewing a lot of horseshyt like an expert. I lost almost as much weight as referenced by the thread starters goal. I ate every day. You’re starving yourself and in a massive caloric deficit. Of course you lost weight
You don't go 72-96 hours without food and only lose water weight. That was mostly body fat I lost cause my body couldn't function that long without getting energy from stored fat reserves . And my mirror has confirmed this as I've lost almost all body fat around my stomach. I'm finally seeing my abs again after years of being buried under belly fat.
And FTR fasting isn't starving yourself. I rarely feel hungry while fasting cause my body is in ketosis. When you're in ketosis your body feeds on its fat reserves and thus doesn't send the hormonal signal to your brain that its hungry. Starvation only happens when you lack fat reserves and your body starts feeding on its own tissue. That isn't the case for most people while fasting.

So you’ve fasted for a total of three times in two weeks right?
is an example of a prolonged fast. Granted he was severely obese, but you on that bullshyt to casually suggest a normal human eat two meals a week to lose weight. You haven’t taken into consideration his blood pressure issues, blood sugar issues, cardiovascular strength, his actual amount of muscle under all that fat and his inability to function in a normal day to day sitting from eating 4000 calories over the span of a week
. He gon pass out at his desk adding staples to a stapler.
youve fasted a total of like 3 times. You haven’t even begun to see any long term effects. You can bullshyt all you want, you WILL lose muscle fasting for 4 straight days constantly. There’s no way you avoid it. You’ve been going 2 weeks you have no idea what will happen. As I’ve said, you went down the YouTube expert rabbit hole just like the flat earth and all that other horseshyt you subscribe to. The theory of the week. Out here looking like Christian bale in the mechinist by mlk day taking about “but my guts gone” while you don’t have the energy to walk to the mailbox
Advice
So listening to medical professionals like this doctor is horseshyt?
Watch this video and you might learn something. FYI I've already seen dramatic results in 2 weeks fasting. I've gotten multiple compliments on looking younger. It doesn't take long to get dramatic benefits from fasting.
You can find a medical professional to co-sign anything. There’s literally tens of thousands of doctors who preach eating healthy every fukking day. Their opinion doesn’t matter because one random YouTube clip says something else? You lost weight because you are at a drastic calorie deficit. It ain’t rocket science. You’re starving yourself. Hence losing weight. Go to the Mayo Clinic and tell them you haven’t ate in 5 days and watch how fast they hook you up to some intervenous fluids to get essential nutrients in your malnourished ass. I don’t need to learn anything about weight loss. I lost almost 80 lbs without sacrificing any muscle. I’m in the best shape of my life and I played collegiate d-1 sports. I did it by eating every day. Your way might work for you. We shall see how you feel in 6 months when you start to shrivel up. It ain’t the way for most normal folks to lose weight and keep it off

As long as you have sufficient body fat you can easily fast with only 2 meals per week. I'm pretty lean and have been able to do it. If I can do it then homeboy whose 285 lbs can easily do it.
So you're not gonna watch the video? Ok.
Be happy being ignorant. Fasting is at the cutting edge of medical research right now. That's why most medical professionals might not cosign it. Its because they are as ignorant as you on this topic. However, those who have seen the research know its extremely beneficial for our health. BTW if you watched that earlier video of Dr. Fung I posted you would know calorie counting is irrelevant to weight loss.
And while 5 days might be too much for me, I'm sure if I showed up to the Mayo clinic on a 3 day fast the doctors would be astonished by my health. At 3 days fast I've felt amazing. Better than I do on a full stomach.
i lost 80 lbs by simple calorie counting and doing HIIT. Again, there’s no need for “cutting edge” stuff, this ain’t a technological advancement. You burn more calories than you intake and you will lose weight. It’s literally that simple. You notice most snake oil “keto diet” propaganda promoters are selling books or programs along with their fancy trendy drivel? They know most folks don’t have the discipline or are willing to put in the effort to lose weight the traditional way, which is simply eating a healthy diet and doing enough high intensity training to burn more than you intake. People would rather pay to hear about a new way to lose weight quickly, and it’s literally just not eating. But enough of em are buying these “guides to fasting” and this “don’t listen to your doctor, read this book” nonsense it’s turned into a booming business for these snake oil salesmen. You’re eating it up, by going several straight days by not eating, eating once, and going days again with zero caloric intake and somehow your ignorant ass is stunned you lost weight. People are fukking retards
Speak of the devil, wonder what happens when you type “dr fung fasting” into google. Oh, you don’t say, he’s selling a “guide to fasting” imagine paying 27 dollars for a guide on how to literally not eat

You would have lost that weight much faster and with far less effort fasting. But hey if you wanna do it the hard way go right ahead.
I'm trying to give people advice on the most efficient way to lose weight.

So because he's making money on his knowledge that makes his information false?
Talk about a logical fallacy.
Who’s questioning that you drop weight quickly when you literally don’t eat? That’s the point of calorie deficits. It’s simply not healthy as a long term solution. The tried and true methods of keeping weight off and being healthy take work and discipline. Eating sensibly and doing quick, practical higher intensity exercise sounds a lot easier to maintain than eating once a week and having to hit the gym for longer workouts more frequently because you will shrivel up otherwise
