FAQ >/fast/ discord discord.gg/qqtQFDQ >What is /fast/? Fast is a thread for the discussion of intermittent fasting, fasting, water fasting, and dry fasting.
>What’s the difference between intermittent fasting, water fasting, dry fasting, etc.? >Intermittent fasting: Fasting for a certain amount of time with a short eating window. 16:8 (16 hours fasting, 8 hour eating window) is the bare minimum. >Water fasting: Fasting with only water. >Dry fasting: Fasting with no water. Dangerous, use with caution.
>How do I safely do an extended fast? Take snake juice, or just supplement electrolytes. >Water=2L >Potassium chloride =1 tsp (No Salt) >Sodium chloride = 1/2 tsp (Himalayan Pink Salt) >Sodium Bicarbonate = 1 tsp (Baking Soda) >Magnesium Sulphate = 1/2 tsp (Food Grade Epsom Salts) Mix these in 2L of water and sip it throughout the day. [OPTIONAL] 2 tbsp Apple cider vinegar and 4 tbsp lemon juice. DO NOT MIX with snake juice, drink separately. May add 1/4 tsp baking soda. You can also do this if you feel lightheaded, weak, dizzy, nauseous, etc., on shorter water fasts. Don’t do this while intermittent fasting.
>Won’t I go into starvation mode? No. You don't have the willpower to fast that low.
>Will (something with calories) break my fast? Yes, headarse.
>Can I drink coffee, tea, and diet soda? Or anything with artificial sweeteners? You can do whatever the fuck you want. We recommend avoiding those, sweeteners especially.
Hey somebody who knows something I need some advice I fucking hate having to drink 2 liters of snake shit garbage every day can I SAFELY use less water but still split it up over the course of a day and if so how little water can I use? yes im fat and yes im a bitch thanks
Charles Ross
can i jerk off while dry fasting?
Evan Price
no you will die
Eli Reyes
if you have the energy to jerk off while dry fasting you're doing it wrong.
Jaxson Diaz
What does it mean if you are not losing weight while fasting. Weighed the exact same yesterday. You dont have to drink 2L. That was for recipe purposes. Drink so that you aren't thirsty but also not peeing all day.
Liam Gray
Starting my 8 day tomorrow. 3 day dry 5 day wet.
Adam Perez
I want to get that amount of potassium every day though, so I guess what im asking is, would it be safe to put that same amount of salt and potassium into a normal 16 oz water, and jsut take a drink of it every hour or so with normal water throughout the day
Jaxon Wilson
Starting a 20 day today, assuming I make it through without snake juice. Wish me luck fellas
No it will actually accelerate your weight loss. Trust me I'm a physician
Jack Wilson
>sub 1200 calaiorie OMAD on afternoons will I lose weight
Thomas Green
Since this has been gong on for well over 300 threads now and 6+ months, there must be a ton of people here who have lost 50lbs in 2-3months with pics for proof right?
Sebastian Morris
God I wish that were me I'd wear lace leggings in your place though ._.
Grayson Roberts
Nope, not one. No one went for that long, it's just everyone halfassing it in these threads and shitposting.
Hudson Phillips
Nobody here has the willpower and self-control to go that long, only OMAW Grandpa had but he's dead.
Zachary Bennett
would it be reasonable to eat on days that I lift and fast on days that I don’t? Trying to cut.
Jace Jenkins
I try not to post more than pictures of my arm and hands on 4channel Those are eternally skeleton.
Leo Jenkins
Is that you crusader
Kayden Stewart
>Nope, not one. No one went for that long, it's just everyone halfassing it in these threads and shitposting. i figured
Levi Lee
Does drinking cum break your fast?
Juan Russell
Swallowing your saliva already does it, so no one really fasts actually.
Zachary Thomas
>Does drinking cum break your fast? someone else's yes
Aiden Jenkins
>start fast >suddenly don't want to do anything at all god this sucks. I can't enjoy video games at all like this.
Prove to me that fasting isnt just a fotm meme and is better than simple restriction for cutting fat.
William Morgan
Nevermind I forgot that candy canes have calories whoops
Chase Nguyen
can i eat chicken nuggets or will that break my fast
Oliver Torres
NO.
YOU CAN USE A MORE HIGHLY CONCENTRATED SNAKE JUICE, YES, BUT DO NOT POUND IT ALL BACK IN A FUCKING SECOND. YOU CAN DRINK PLAIN WATER IN CASE YOU'RE GETTING HEADACHES FROM DEHYDRATION. OR JUST DRY FAST FOR 3 DAYS AND DRINK FUCKING SNAKE JUICE AFTER YOU FAT FOOD ADDICTED FUCK.
GOOD LUCK. TAKE PICTURES AND POST'EM IF YOU SUCCEED.
PEOPLE ARE AFRAID OF POSTING PICTURES, BUT IF YOU WANT TO SEE RESULTS, GOOGLE 'SNAKE DIET WIZARD' ON IG.
YEA THAT'S PERFECTLY REASONABLE. IF YOU WANT TO BOOST THE CUT, TRY WORKING OUT ONE DAY FASTED AND SEE HOW THAT GOES.
Luis Evans
GO FOR A WALK YOU UNMOTIVATED FUCK. DO SOMETHING WITH YOUR LIFE.
SHOW ME BETTER RESULTS THAT DON'T COST ANY MONEY AND DON'T REQUIRE ANY DRUGS. ALSO, SHOW ME SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS 'NOT EATING.'
Angel Gray
reee don't scream at me you bigot meanie oppressor :C
Dominic Long
can i be a part of /fast/ if i'm just doing a 1500 Caloric diet?
>SHOW ME BETTER RESULTS THAT DON'T COST ANY MONEY AND DON'T REQUIRE ANY DRUGS. Long fasting will of course give the best theoretical results but it's very very hard to do.
I would be interested to get 200 similarly motivated men and have 100 of them try snake juice fasting for as long as they could as often as they could for a year and have the other 100 eat at a 1000cal def for a year (or till they hit and maintained goal weight) and see which group had the best results
In real life it is often the case that the thing that seems or feels like the best thing to do because it is the most extreme is often not on average the best thing to do
Jack Morris
What about your own?
Chase Morris
ive been doing 3-4 day fasts every week and have lost 30 pounds so far, started on november 1
>gramps isn't dead >old generals are LITTERED with discordfags wailing about his death ok
Charles Cox
Cutting makes you lose muscle and decreases your BMR. On the other hand, you don't lose muscle when fasting and it actually increases your BMR if you do it regularly to the point you exhaust all your glycogen stores and enter ketosis because you are constantly switching metabolic pathways
Ryan Thomas
literally have his phone number and in our OG discord we talk to him per normal, i talked to him like yesterday lol
Hunter Kelly
I think this is a good premise. If you lose weight, but retain the same muscle mass, it leads to reason that you'd be able to run a lot faster.
Julian Edwards
>but it's very very hard to do. THE DIFFICULTY IS BASED OFF OF WILLPOWER, SOMETHING THAT YOU NEED FOR LIFE IN GENERAL.
>snake juice fasting for as long as they could as often as they could for a year HERE'S THE THING ABOUT PROLONGED FASTING, YOU WILL ONLY NEED TO DO 2-3 MONTHS COMPARED TO A WHOLE YEAR OF EATING AT A CALORIC DEFICIT. AND YOU KNOW WHAT'S ALSO SPECIAL ABOUT THAT CALORIC DEFICIT? YOUR MUSCLES WILL BE AT A STATE OF ATROPHY FOR AN ENTIRE YEAR! YAY!
HOW DO I KNOW THIS? BECAUSE I TRIED IT. I FUCKING TRIED EATING AT A CALORIC DEFICIT IN 12 SMALL MEALS A DAY. I DID A FUCKING YEAR, COINCIDENTALLY, AND LOST 60 POUNDS, BUT GOD KNOWS HOW MUCH OF THAT WAS FUCKING MUSCLE. MY BMR HAD DROPPED SO FUCKING MUCH (>2K TO 900 CALORIES) THAT I REGRET EVERY SINGLE FUCKING DAY I WAS ON THAT PIECE OF SHIT MAINSTREAM BULLSHIT DIET THAT I SUFFERED THROUGH, BEING HUNGRY 24/7 AND FUCKING MISERABLE. I STALLED ON MY LIFTS AFTER LIKE 6 MONTHS AND I HAD JUST BARELY STARTED TO LIFT, WHAT KIND OF FUCKING GARBAGE IS THAT?
SO WHAT'S WORSE, BEING BORED FOR 2 MONTHS DOING EXTENDED FASTS OR SUFFERING A WHOLE YEAR, LOSING MUCH MORE MUSCLE, AND POSSIBLY GAINING A FOOD ADDICTION? ON TOP OF ALL OF THAT, FASTING IS NOT LIMITED TO BODY FAT LOSS. YOU GAIN IMMENSE SELF-DEVELOPMENT, YOU CAN PREVENT CANCER, CURE CANCER, AND HEAL HEALTH ISSUES. YOU ALSO GAIN THIS INVALUABLE TOOL THAT YOU HAVE BY YOUR SIDE IN CASE YOU RELAPSE LIKE A LITTLE BITCH - JUST DON'T EAT FOR 2 DAYS. COMPARE THAT TO A MULTIPLE MEAL A DAY CALORIC DEFICIT. YOU'D HAVE TO MANAGE YOUR DIET PERFECTLY FOR 3 WEEKS TO LOSE 6 POUNDS (WHICH 2 POUNDS PER WEEK IS AGGRESSIVE FOR YOUR STUPID FUCKING DIET LMAO).
>it is the most extreme THAT'S WHERE YOU'RE WRONG. WHAT'S EXTREME IS MULTIPLE MEALS A DAY OR EATING AT A CALORIC DEFICIT. OUR EVOLUTION WAS BUILT AROUND FOOD SCARCITY, NOT FOOD ABUNDANCE. WE DID NOT HAVE READILY AVAILABLE STEAK AT GROCERY STORES 2 MILLION YEARS AGO, AND WE WERE IN MUCH BETTER HEALTH PHYSICALLY.
John Hill
How long would it take to lose 40kg?
Jaxon Foster
n-no /fat/ sucks i like /fast/
Lucas Wright
I am just a numbers guy. Diets don't mean shit if nobody sticks to them. I would just like to see how real world effective fasting is vs a cal deficit
Atkins sounds like the best idea ever to every middle age fat guy I know, I have had office people for years tell me how they just lost 20lbs on atkins and were going to lose more
they are all still fat, it's good you can follow this diet but we need averages for meaningful discussion
Jeremiah Murphy
Stop being identification into Jow Forums you maggot, you have no reason to have a trip and you have no reason to talk about discord
Jackson Garcia
You sound just like me, years ago I was a fat fuck and I knew nothing about fitness/nutrition so I adopted a shitty mainstream diet, where I cut at 1000 cals, it made my muscles atrophy into pretty much nothing. I was weaker than a woman.
Now through the power of fasting + bulking, I have GAINED muscle through my fasts, how about that?
Jayden Reed
Only person that matters is you. Doing snake juice for a year straight is unreasonable because you lose a pound a day. So after 60 days you would have lost 60 lbs. You could probably get 60 days out of 3 months. There shouldnt really be that many people who have more than 60lbs to lose. Most only want to lose 20-30. Actually getting people with enough fat to snake diet for a years seems to be the hard part.
Samuel Brown
if you are cutting at 1000 cals but not in ketosis you are going to lose muscle.
Grayson Kelly
So what, you all got high and started shitposting about the paddy's demise all at once, for days and weeks? Odd.
Matthew Cox
That was literally a coordinated trolling attempt you retard
Christian Hall
noob faggot
Luis Collins
see i mean, you'd believe the chimps in this thread over me, the only person who has posted results and updates for over a year now?
Gabriel Hernandez
Two hours left of my first 48 hour dry fast. Hope I have the willpower not to gorge as soon as I break it.
Caleb Parker
>Diets don't mean shit if nobody sticks to them THEN GOOD LUCK ON TRYING TO GET PEOPLE TO STICK TO A CALORIC DEFICIT FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES. AT LEAST WITH OMAD THEY CAN EAT MORE CALORIES ON A DAILY BASIS, FEEL FULL ONCE A DAY FOR HOURS, AND FULFILL THAT FOOD ADDICTION. A CALORIC DEFICIT IS COMPLETE FUCKING GARBAGE COMPARED TO FASTING, AND IT ISN'T EVEN HEALTHY.
YEA IT PISSES ME OFF A GREAT DEAL, ESPECIALLY SINCE I WAS TELLING PEOPLE TO DO THE SAME IF THEY WANTED TO LOSE WEIGHT. NOT ONLY DID IT MAKE ME A WEAK BITCH, IT MADE ME A WEAK SKINNYFAT BITCH TELLING PEOPLE A FUCKING LIE. THE ONLY SAVING GRACE IS THAT IT LED ME TO FASTING AND SEARCHING FOR THE TRUTH FOR HEALTH. IMAGINE FINDING OUT THAT YOU CAN BULK ON A CUT, AND IF YOU DIRTY BULK YOU CAN JUST FAST FOR 7 DAYS, RETAINING ALL YOUR MUSCLE.
Grayson Phillips
is that you jody?
Nathaniel Harris
>Only person that matters is you. Doing snake juice for a year straight is unreasonable because you lose a pound a day. So after 60 days you would have lost 60 lbs in theory
I am saying that people might lose 30lbs then you back up and at the end of a year be back where they started like atkins
Michael Brooks
>THEN GOOD LUCK ON TRYING TO GET PEOPLE TO STICK TO A CALORIC DEFICIT FOR THE REST OF THEIR LIVES. obviously you hit your goal weight then stop eating at a deficit
Noah Clark
Tell that to clueless me 4 years ago who didn't know shit
Evan Moore
Goal weight means nothing. You'll have to bulk to get back the muscle that you lost turning the cut, but then you have to cut to get rid of the fat that you gained from the bulk, creating a vicious cycle.
Fasting completely transcends the gay bulking/cutting cycle
Ian Ramirez
REGAINING THE WEIGHT IS NOT EXCLUSIVE TO PROLONGED FASTING. YOU DON'T THINK I REGAINED SOME WEIGHT BACK AFTER I COULDN'T HANDLE MULTIPLE MEALS A DAY AT A CALORIC DEFICIT? I REGAINED LIKE 25 FUCKING POUNDS, STILL FUCKING WEAK. AGAIN, A PROLONGED FASTER WILL HAVE THIS TOOL TO LOSE WEIGHT FAST AND SAFELY, BUT IF SOMEBODY RELAPSES FROM THE MAINSTREAM DIET, IT'LL TAKE WEEKS OF UNHEALTHY EATING HABITS AGAIN, WHICH THEY WILL *NOT* BE ABLE TO DO FOR ANOTHER FUCKING YEAR.
ON A MAINSTREAM DIET, YOUR BMR WILL BE SO LOW AT THIS POINT THAT YOU'LL HAVE TO EAT +200 CALORIES OF WHERE YOU DROPPED FROM THE PREVIOUS WEEK, MEANING I WOULD BE EATING 1100 CALORIES TO MAINTAIN MY WEIGHT AT 205 POUNDS. RIGHT NOW I'M MAINTAINING 190 EATING 1500+ CALORIES AND RISING, GETTING STRONGER EVERY FUCKING WEEK AT THE GYM.
THIS AND MOTHERFUCKING THIS.
Mason Perez
>tfw dominate a 1200 calorie chaos burrito for first meal of the day feels good man. been IF'ing for a couple of weeks to improve my strength to body weight ratio to be a better rock climber and the results have been great. Lost 12 lbs but I dont feel like ive lost any strength and my climbing has greatly improved.
>Goal weight means nothing. jokes on you i wanna compete in a weight class
Levi Kelly
Then fast, you can compete in your weight class and you won't lose muscle
Carson Smith
Well fasting forces ketosis. Fastest way of entering it.
Robert Miller
this guy in the OP pic has the cutest fucking feet, don't even fast just thought I'd drop by to say that
Jose Ward
>RIGHT NOW I'M MAINTAINING 190 EATING 1500+ CALORIES wat
Luis Morris
Don’t ever fucking reply to me
Liam Harris
YEA IF I HADN'T BEEN ON A MAINSTREAM DIET, MY MAINTENANCE WOULD BE 2K+ EASILY. INSTEAD IT DROPPED TO 900, MY HORMONES GOT ALL FUCKED UP, AND I GOT FUCKING WEAK.
YOUR HORMONE THERAPY GIVING YOU MOOD SWINGS? FIND YOUR NEAREST DILATION STATION AT YOUR LOCAL LIBERAL WORKSHOP YOU FUCKING HOMOSEXUAL TRANNY. I BET YOU'RE A FOOTPOSTER
Michael Collins
I'm glad he's alright, tell him I said hi, I'm the guy who mentioned Dylan Moran in a previous general.
I absolutely fucking despise cutting during winter. I hate how the fat around my tits, cock, and man handles are more stubborn than a family of niggers saying their son who shot and killed someone dindunuffin.
Day 3 with wet fast, already thinking how will i keep my self gorging a huge meal after tomorrow.
Juan Reed
>*reads /fast/* >you will lost muscle if you're cutting but you won't if you fast what is this magic WHAT IS THIS MAGIC SURELY IT IS BROSCIENCE
Jackson Hernandez
The body switches metabolic pathways to burning fat for a primary source of energy during a fast, which means it exclusively targets your fat stores as burning muscle is wasteful. I have gained muscle this month even though there was more days where I haven't eaten anything than days I have ate.
Anthony Flores
it's simple if you eat protein to maintain muscle mass during a cut you'll lose muscle mass
but if you drink water and no protein you won't lose muscle mass
Charles James
WHAT ARE YOUR GOALS WITH KETO?
STRENGTH.
Wyatt Morgan
to lose weight
Asher Perez
This is another fad diet guys, first month on it I dropped 20. second month on it I only dropped 10. basically all it does is get rid of water weight.
Christopher Russell
THEN THE BEST THING IS SIMPLY PROLONGED FASTING. SNAKE JUICE GOING WEEKS AT A TIME, SPLASHED WITH SOME DRY DAYS AND WORKING OUT. IT'S ALSO DIFFICULT, ESPECIALLY IF YOU HAVE FOOD ADDICTION.
AS FAR AS REFEEDING, RAW, LEAN PROTEIN, RAW EGGS, AND RAW LIVER. STARCHY CARBS SHOULD BE KEPT AT A MINIMUM, BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN THEY SHOULD BE COMPLETELY NEGLECTED, ESPECIALLY IF YOU WORKOUT. IF YOU'RE NOT OPEN TO THE IDEA OF EATING RAW FOOD, THEN EAT LEAN MEAT AND CARBS FOR FIBER (NO SUGAR, FATTY). FAT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT BUT IF YOU'RE ALREADY FAT, YOU DON'T NEED MUCH. JUST EAT EGG YOLKS FOR THE SMALL AMOUNT OF FAT AND CHOLESTEROL. THERE'S MORE TO THIS BUT I DON'T WANT TO WRITE ANOTHER 2000 CHARACTER POST. FIRST GET LEAN THEN ASK FOR FURTHER INFO.
OH YEA, AND MACROS SHOULD BE 50:50 PROTEIN:FAT ON THE WEEKDAYS AND 50:50 PROTEIN:CARBS ON THE WEEKENDS. THE MORE DAYS YOU DO NOT EAT, THE BETTER. DO OMAD AT THE VERY LEAST.
Camden Young
Fuck off retard, fasting has been practised for thousands of years, intentionally, and for basically all of humanities lifespan until the present unintentionally when food was naturally scarce.
Juan Powell
Thanks for ruining the thread. May as well put on a trip code since you are so obviously starved for attention
Jaxon Butler
ANOTHER /FAT/ LIAR TRYING TO BULLSHIT YOU. DON'T LISTEN TO THIS FUCKING LYING IDIOT.
THEN LEAVE. ANYONE CAN TAKE ON THE PERSONA, BUT ARE YOU WILLING TO HELP OTHERS? GO BACK TO THE MAIN BOARD AND PREACH YOUR FUCKING DRUGS AND SHITTY MAINSTREAM DIET, PUSSY.
Mason Perry
I'm 72 hours in and want to feed. Is it bad if drink a zero calorie monster energy drink. It's almost to the point where it's that or feed. Will calorie free drinks hurt weight loss
Nathan Scott
sure :) anything else? i don' remember your posts because I lurk rarely :(
Mason Reyes
Find an easy video game to grind or play an MMO
Lucas Williams
>It's almost to the point where it's that or feed EITHER GAIN SOME MORE WILLPOWER AND PUSH THROUGH LIKE A MAN OR PUSS OUT AND SIP YOU FUCKING BOOMER. IT WILL HURT WEIGHT LOSS A BIT, BUT THE WORST FEELING IS KNOWING YOU'RE A WEAK BITCH THAT HAS TO RESORT TO DRUGS AND ONE OF THE WORST FUCKING DRINKS TO BOOT.
FACE SOME DISCOMFORT IN YOUR GODDAMN LIFE. IF YOU CAN'T EVEN BEAT HUNGER, HOW CAN YOU BEAT BIGGER PROBLEMS? BY DRINKING MONSTER?
