/fast/ - #254 - ...And Darkness Falls Edition

Uh, just rest dude. It makes sense you'd be sore from that walk, even a lean person might be sore from that. Maybe take a cold bath in some epsom salt if you want.

Thanks friend.

Could anyone recommend me an optimal meal? I'm trying to find the perfect meal and stick to it everyday. Especially after a refeed.

We're all gonna make it brahs ;-;

nice upper body gains as well

You're going to make it. Just keep at it, and enjoy the fasting.

how much more weight would someone like him need to look shredded?

i'm about his body type right now and i'm on day 2 of an indefinite fast (6'1 @175 lbs)

do you think he would be ripped with a 6 pack after 5 lbs or would it need to be 10 lbs weight loss? (i really don't wanna have to fast for 2 fucking weeks)

that's me lol

i feel like i need ~10lbs to go desu

fuckkk.

i'm planning on doing a 7-8 day fast so i can probably get dry as fuck down to ~168 lbs but w/ a refeed and hydration thats probably ~173 regular weight.

seems like i'll need atleast another 7 day and then a couple 3's afterwards to get to 165.

best of luck to you

yeah i dont really do full fasts, i've just been doing 16/8

good luck to you too brah

Do you guys change your lifting routines on a longer (>24hrs). I've been doing 16:8 but want to throw in some proper fasts a few days a month. Do you just lift less, lift the same, don't lift and stick to cardio?

196 to 185 in 8 days on OMAD with a 48 and 72 hour fast thrown in. Here’s hoping OMAD the rest of the week withboke 48 hour fast can get me to sub-180!

Hair on the top of my head has thinned about after 3 weeks of 5:2
It's time to stop fasting before I lose everything

Fuck you all for memeing me into this

Lift the same. Fasting makes you crazy anabolic so as long as you got proper protein in on the last day you ate, you can make the same gains as normal, maybe even more if you’re a newbie.

refeed with more protein, make sure to get some iodine

looking to cut not gain, any dangers of injury in a deficit.

It's the end of eat day, fast day is tomorrow.

What do you want out of it? I use VORA on android.

should have used carb blockers -> keto -> carnivore diet

God bless you and your gains. Don't listen to that other cuck, 5 miles is nothing. Keep your snake juice up and don't you dare look down upon yourself for five-day progress. When you break that fast, start anew, a phoenix risen once more to your goals.

I have been doing OMAD for 3 months.
194->167 at 5'7"

Nope. You may be slightly less explosive, so don’t be surprised if you have to bring the weight down slightly when fasted. This is temporary if it even happens at all.

How long did this take?

Should I cut all caffeine? I think my long water fasts always fail more to caffeine withdrawal than the actual hunger.

How exactly does caffeine affect ketosis/fasts
I had some espresso earlier today and I still felt okay but I wouldn't want to kick myself out of getting those fast gains

>End day 3 of 7 day fast
>miss carbs a bunch
>want pizza every single second
>new job has free breakfast, high quality lunches
>amazing opportunities for keto because they usually have 2 options for meat
>today was lox bagels for breks and lunch was steak and shrimp with a side of kale slathered in butter
I really want to maintain my stride for fasting but GOT DAMN
Pretty sure tomorrow won't be as impressive but still pretty good so far

I'm probably going to demolish a pizza the first chance I get, but we'll see

it can raise cortisol a little, which can sometimes cause a bit of excess gluconeogensis... but realistically its not going to matter much, coffee away

I was watching the snake juice guy. youtube.com/watch?v=-fkv1Dkh-Ls
Still not sure about him, make sense but sounds like broscience

Thanks for the motivation, will do.

Your experience is the same as mine. Any and all drinks with artificial sweetner do this. Black coffee, green tea and snek joos is all I drink now when fasting.

Down to 225lb from 234lb thanks to omad, I've also done my first ever 24 hour fast and the sugar crashes have stopped, I just wanted to know if there are any fasted workouts available, I can do about an hour of fasted cardio but I wanted to know if there is anything else I can do.

My body feels, um, fizzy all over. Is this my body getting rid of the bad shit?

Did my first 48 a few days ago. Been drinking the smell jizz. Was on 18:6 before that. Tried to go to a 72 after the 48, but I felt like absolute trash 24 hours in, so I ate and felt alright again. Fever, headaches, weakness. Could have been caffeine/sugar withdrawal for all I know. Over 24 hours fasted now, feeling fine, not even hungry, and hoping to get to the 72 hour mark or further.

>Smell jizz

Thanks for making me look like an even BIGGER faggot autocorrect. Not to mention outing me as a filthy phoneposter. Was supposed to be snake jizz.

i think i hate food

That's the spirit. Now become too lazy and indifferent to bother eating and you'll /make it/.

Yeah the first time I tried I felt miserable and ill too

So i've dropped from 222 to 199 doing water fasting/omad. I did my first 24hour dry fast today, and my mouth felt so fucking dry around the 24 hour mark. Is this normal?

I also feel like i choose a horrible meal to refeed... I made rigatoni pasta, with home made tomato sauce. Made sure not to use any sugar. I also cooked 2 whole chicken breasts and grated some mozerella ontop of the pasta... I feel like i fucked up.. prior to my dryfast i had a mcdonalds quarter pounder aswell. Fuck my life man. I made sure to not have any soda or fries with it though.

Fasting for health reasons (psoriasis) but I feel like I'm too fucking skinny. I'm 5'8" 144lbs currently. I have very little muscle and almost no definition.
You think it's a good idea to start to fast regularly while being so lightweight or should I bulk up first?
Fucking Cole is like 5'6" and hes 160lbs

Is it worth eating keto during an IF?

*I have very little muscle and almost no definition but have visible fat on my stomach, ass and thighs

It makes it easier but not required

How specifically does it make it easier though? I'm going through keto flu right now with no cleear notion in my head why

anyone wanna give me some tips on what I should eat inbetween fasts?
I'm going to try to eliminate sugars and the like, but I do enjoy simple carbs like rice and potatoes

Makes it easier to get back into ketosis. If it's completely carb free, then theoretically you don't even get kicked out of ketosis. Fat doesn't stimulate insulin release.

>fasting for this

Kill yourself

Bone broth. Anything really. What are your goals? If weight loss, try to eat as keto as possible. Rice and potatoes are complex carbs. For athletes, better than simple carbs in a way that they're absorbed more slowly. But for fasting, that means staying out of ketosis even longer.

No but eating my dick is worth it

Why are you using a trip

I need to know if pic related hot sauce would fuck with a fast. Will it trigger and insulin response?

Attached: S9TwtPQ.jpg (900x1200, 392K)

Just use meth you dumbfuck

anyone?

So when I finish my eating period my body magivally goes straight to burning fat?

Why would it, even the bottle is telling you you're being delusional

Its after your monthly period

bro if you have visible fat (especially in the stomach around your vital organs) then you can afford to fast until it's all gone.
It would actually benefit you.

However, you really should start lifting and eating more after that.
Fasting makes me absorb more nutrients if I eat the same food (compared to before fasting).

How do I start fasting? I get it's just not eating but my stomach starts feeling like absolute shite and I get terrible headaches on the 2nd day in every time and cave from how aggravating life in general is when i'm like that. It makes work so much harder.

I thought sleep was gonna allow me to skip 8 hours of fasting. I could only sleep 4

REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

the question is...what are you putting hot sauce on if you are fasting

>carb blockers with meal for a week
>fast
>keto
my best recommendation. carb blockers stop the addiction, the headache and drowsiness of keto dont hit as hard.

>visible fat
Theres no visible fat. Unless you cut yourself and reveal the fat retard

Meth or carb blockers?? Which is it??

Does keto flu ever truly go away? And if it does, then why? What specifically changes in your body for the symptoms to stop?

as long as you snort meth its a pretty good alternative to carbblocking/fasting and not really addictive. you are already adicted to carbs, other drugs made in a lab really arent that much worse.

Honestly you should just acquire better genes.

The first time is really hard, especially if you were not on keto for a long time.
The reason is you're not adapted to efficiently burning fat for your main energy source.

After the first 48 or 72, the next one is a lot easier. I still got a bit of brain fog but that's it.

After a while, depending on how long you fast and your previous diet, you'll feel great.
I could perform better fasted than I could fed in judo training.
Weightlifting benefits from a bit of glucose in your muscles but you can have it while being fasted, after a while, if you eat for example 100g carbs and muscles are depleted most of them goes there while you continue burning fat for energy until you actually use those muscles.

My tongue.

>you are already adicted to carbs
No I dont

then you arent fat and shouldnt fast

you can readily recognise flab from muscle you fucking dipshit. Especially around the belly.

>The first time is really hard
No it doesnt

just drink some tea or something my dude

tea lowers your test though

I am now doing my first fast ever, going for 48 hours. There's very little weight I want to lose, probably around 10 pounds. When would you recommend my second fast to be?

Attached: HOL UP.jpg (300x186, 10K)

Next decade. Ofcourse do an EF if you feel that you need to shed fat or whatever

why meme response

10 pounds is about 5 days of fasting if you walk around and are at least a little active.
Don't be deceived by the initial water loss (go by looks, not by scale).

If you can go on after 48 hours, don't break the fast. If you feel like you need food (you don't but I know how it is), then eat a steak or eggs and a greek salad and fast again for 72.
Should be really close if not there by the end of that.

nice misleading info

Sorry you said 10 pounds and I even wrote that, but my numbers are for 5 pounds.
You lose about 1lb/day fasting. So 10 days fasting if you're slightly active, more if you take long walks.

I don't feel the need to lose all of my desired weight in one fast, though. I can take it easier than that.

>You lose about 1lb/day fasting
No it doesnt

lol'd

yeah, i corrected myself
just woke up so a little out of it
what are you talking about? maybe not if you lie in bed all day but I specified he should be walking around.
I understand. You might actually like having the extra time in the day and the experience of fasting for longer though.
For me the most comfortable was 72 and 48 alternating.

Hi homos!
Let's say i picked 3 nights a week and that's the only time i eat. All mornings plus 4 nights i fast. Those 3 nights i eat whatever i want. How does that sound?

vague.
What are your goals?

only way to reveal the fat retard is to pull your mask off

To get girls, what else? Any other answer is hard cope

Looks like you tried it, good for you
