>HOW DO I SAFELY FAST? Google snake juice. Not strictly necessary, especially for short fasts (Sugar is more addictive than coke ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/23719144
>WHAT SHOULD MY FASTING ROUTINE LOOK LIKE? If you're lean, 5:2!-- OMAD (one meal a day, 1-2 hour eating window) 5 days a week + 48 hour fast a week. Also look up leangains. If you're a fatass, FAST UNTIL YOU AREN'T.

op here in regards of the no sleep, I can't, for the love of god, fall asleep after my second day anyone else having the same issue? anything to fix it? it's already 6 h past my regular bedtime I just wanna catch some zzzs
Question: Pickles have zero calories, even bigass pickles.
What would happen if you ate pickles on a fast for sustenance? Like not obscene amounts and die of salt poisoning, but like 3-5 a day. How much would it fuck staying in a fasted state?
David Bennett
I wonder what's the cause that people experience during fasting for sleep. Any bros have any medical studies/videos relating to it, would be an interesting read.
When i did my 4 day fast, I slept like a fucking baby, perhaps due to the cardio I did 2-3 hours before hand? I get atleast 7 hours of sleep, even longer at times, never came in and out of my sleep either. Yall niggas experiment and hope for the best.
Julian Watson
Don't know a specific answer for this, but you could perhpas get ketone sticks and measure, 15,30minutes to an hour with them and see.
The other answer is, stop being a pussy and dont rely on a "food" product to help.

FACT: 99.9% of fit healthy individuals accomplish their goals by eating healthy appropriately-sized portions of food, and working hard everyday.
I'm not anti-fasting (especially for people who are hugely obese and have binge eating disorders), and I have even completed a few very short fasts to challenge my willpower. And I'm glad you all have found your niche and you're all trying to make it..
But some posters ITT who act like fasting on salt water only, for 30 days at a time, for the rest of your life, is the only way to lose weight and be Jow Forums, are brainwashed and narrow minded fools. These posters spend way too much time on youtube watching videos (by posters with credentials/souces you don't vet), and buy it as Gopel. (No different from a cult member or a religious individual.) Take what these posters say with a grain of salt. You should go outside and socialize and spend more time with actual humans living in society, and talk with the Jow Forums people you meet. Ask them what they do to stay in shape. 99% of them will not say they do prolonged snake juice fasts. Try suggesting long term snake juice fasts to Jow Forums people you meet in your day to day life. Get some feedback from Jow Forums people you see in real life, rather than someone posting at a computer.
If you're new to these fasting threads, just be sure to take everything you read with a grain of salt. No one responding to you is a medical professional and just because they watched some video doesn't make the information contained within it correct. Every person is different but 99% of fit and healthy individuals eat healthy and workout daily and don't ever need to try drastic crash diets.
Trial and Error is your friend. Try out a routine for a few months, and if that doesn't work, try something different. I believe Fasting is a last resort after you've tried everything you can.
And NEVER fast because you think it's the easy way out. Many fasters ITT are only fasting because they are too lazy to work hard. Sweating and working out is hard. Cooking homemade healthy food and meticulously tracking your food intake is hard work. Don't chose to fast just because you want to be lazy and lay around all day, because once you finally start to eat again, you will gain back any weight you lost frok living a lazy sedentary lifestyle. Start developing active healthy habits NOW. Dont chose to be lazy your entire life.
Thanks for reading. And be safe. We're all going to make it (but most dont need snake juice fasting to make it)
>inb4 SEETHING Just offering some reasonable advice guys, chillllll out!! LOL
If I’m doing a fast with the express purpose of not stopping the fast until I’m 60lb lighter is one low sugar Gatorade acceptable as a snake juice supplement per day? They are 50cal
Connor Morgan
you would lose weight but you arent gonna get the full benefits of water fasting because it has calories and spikes insulin
id probably stick to the no calorie powerades which should have similar electrolytes but will barely spike your insulin, if you are insistent on avoiding snake juice
>is it acceptable snake juice is more concentrated, sports drinks hardly have electrolytes by comparison but you know just go by how you feel day to day
Benjamin Gomez
snake juice is dog shit
OMAD is infinitely better

Isaiah Barnes
Get back on it. Dont be like me
Jacob Bell
same here, fucking sucks. i normally fall completely unconscious in 15 min. now it's very light sleep and wake up super early in the morning.
Ethan Butler
how would you justify it? once you break the mental block of not eating putting stuff in your mouth can lead to a relapse. drink coffee or something to suppress the hunger.
Jose Clark
why do people try to complicate the program. its always the same thing. you have a pre-set rules that you need to follow. stronglifts, 531 etc and there's always some retard trying to customize.
dont drink sugar. do a refeed and exercise, jump back on the fast
Jayden Robinson
Can you fuck up your metabolism by on and off again fasting? I was doing 7 day fasts for 3 months and lost 20kg+, but I've been inconsistent lately and haven't moved on the scale when I probably should have... Thoughts?
Hudson Morris
I slept 10 hours a day on fatty diet, with OMAD its less than 8 hours and I feel a lot better and my apnea is gone
Andrew Clark
Forget it even happened and get back on your feet
Hunter Robinson
Or 3 day fast with water only for that matter
Easton Taylor
Noooooo try dr.berry's ketorade it's on YouTube check it out
question, how long into a fast should i start drinking snake juice? is it jumping the gun to have it like 10 hours in?
Jace Jackson
depends how fat are you. at a certain point your metabolism slows down. thats why you do refeeds.
Dylan Gonzalez
When do you guys consider a fast as having started? >immediately after last meal >once hunger feeling starts
William Jones
what does it really matter?
immediately after last meal is a undisputed point in time
Adam Martinez
what can i do if i sleep eat? am i totally fucked?
Mason Bell
6 hours after the last meal when insulin is down
Liam Perry
thanks
Zachary Ross
Woke up with really dry tongue, now the tip has this bulging bump on it. Anyone suffer from this? Will continued fasting help heal this?
Leo Young
can somoene please answer my questions please
Elijah Rogers
its probably a pimple on your tongue. fasting has nothing to do with it
stop eating at your sleep? lock down your food somehow.
Josiah Baker
is a 20 day water fast good if i want to lose 15kg or should i do it for a longer period time?
Robert Gutierrez
holy shit, how can anyone answer this question without more details?
calculate your TDEE and see for yourself, but yes probably 30-40 days will get you what you want.
Asher Morris
It depends on your activity level and weight. I'm on the last 3 days of a 21 day fast and I am down 12kg (104 to 92 as of this morning), so if you're a fat piece of shit like me, then the odds are pretty good.
Pic is current body, excuse the autism that is the chair, it was to frame it right. How much body fat could I lose in the next 30-60 days healthily and diligently, I need to eat at least 3 days a week for workouts as I despise lifting while fasted. I'm very experienced with fasting so other than that I could theoretically skip eating every other day but that sounds pretty harsh for recovery. Also how long would it take to get abs if I had a perfect routine and diet? Appreciate any educated guesses and advice.
>Every person is different but 99% of fit and healthy individuals eat healthy and workout daily and don't even need to try drastic crash diets.
Or they just have a metabolism that naturally prevents them from being one of the 40% of people who are obese. If 40% of people are obese then it's time to consider the possibility that our current eating habits are just wrong.
>No one responding to you is a medical professional
Good. Doctors don't know shit about diet, there's no money to be made in telling people to eat right. Their job is to throw pills at you. If you have a dietary question they'll regurgitate the standard FDA dietary recommendations which were arrived at through a political process and in the face of objections from the scientific community, the response to which was: "Senators don’t have the luxury that the research scientist does of waiting until every last shred of evidence is in."
>I believe Fasting is a last resort after you've tried everything you can.
There's nothing strange or dangerous about fasting. It's a feature of every culture in the world. The ancient Greeks used fasting for mental sharpness, and turns out they were pretty good at thinking. Every religious tradition in the world has some form of fasting event. The idea that you have to eat every 3 hours or you'll fucking die is a counterproductive cultural anomaly that we happen to be saddled with, and which is making everybody fat because their bodies are constantly pumping out insulin in response to food so that their glucagon can't do its job.
>Many fasters ITT are only fasting because they are too lazy to work hard.
Fasting has nothing to do with being lazy or sedentary, you can incorporate it into any diet regimen you happen to be on, and you can (and should) exercise during your fasts, during which cardio is especially effective.
You clearly don't know what you're talking about, but thanks for the normie advice.
I had a cheat day yesterday because I was at a party and ate 2k cal too much. Cutting 1k cal today and tomorrow I hope it compensates.

>>Many fasters ITT are only fasting because they are too lazy to work hard. I lifted 5 days a week over a year to the point of passing out and never lost a kg been on OMAD for 5 days and the benefits are enormous
Jaxson Walker
I did omad for a long ass time but keep in mind that it provides sup bar protein intake as the body at most will only convert 30g per meal towards protein synthesis. This is somewhat of a grey area as it's not sure how fasting may affect this or consistent eating schedules like omad. But def keep this in mind
Austin Moore
I get tired more easily and fall asleep faster during a fast.
Alexander Parker
Finishing my third consecutive 44/4 fast with some chicken breast boiled with salt and some light seasoning. I'mma eat around 400g of it.
Can I use the cooking water as broth during fast? I don't know if it would break my fast...
Tell you the truth, I could handle 68/4 but I'm pretty satisfied with my results so far, so I'm not pushing it yet.
Looks like I'm gonna make it brahs?
Cameron Lewis
dead silence kek, any reasonable response to high protein kicking you out of keto?
>Can I use the cooking water as broth during fast?
The point of bone broth is that you cook bones in water over a long period of time to get all the nutrients out. Shit like collagen. Water that you used to boil chicken before eating it is not broth.
>I don't know if it would break my fast...
Broth has calories, so if you're fasting in a way that allows you to consume calories then no it won't break your fast. If you're actually fasting and not eating any food at all, then yes it will break your fast.
Liam Bell
why the FUCK is it so hard to find potassium chloride in canada
I agree whole heartedly. I'm kind of pissed my only option is to spend $45 on 2 11 ounce containers.
Juan Gomez
Would fasting kill my gains? I don't have the energy to work out when i'm fasting.
Austin Parker
Just take melatonin
Luis Myers
Will Green tea + ginger + two slices of lemon in 2lt of water break my fast? Dr. Fung says I'm save but I'm never completely sure.

Jose Cruz
Asking this in here as well as qtddtot since I figure you all would have more experience with this. I'm planning to do a deload next week before moving on to a new program. I'm already somewhat lean but have a few last pounds I'd like to shed if possible. I've seen success with fasting before and therefore have been considering doing one (probably 72 hours) before starting my new program, but I'm unsure if it would mess with effectiveness of my deload at all. Is this a good idea? Have any of you fasted during a deload before? Did it hamper your recovery at all?
Nice to hear him answer questions about different body types, because you learn there's many different variations you can do... .... but ultimately STOP EATING FATTY
Tyler Jenkins
Yes. You're receiving some form of nutrition. But nearly everyone on here are about losing weight than the actual healing that fasting can do for you, so it's no biggie if that's the case. I'm assuming you were strictly water fasting, btw.
Camden Jackson
After watching this video I can tell he is from somewhere up north. Just the way he says anything ending in -out

I'm thinking about doing a water fast but I'm a little scared that something might go wrong and I'll do irreversible damage to my body I should be fine as long as I'm not underweight right?
Wyatt Cooper
>be me >be fat >been trying to fast for 3 years >never have willpower >36 hours into fast >get hunger craving >drive to panda express >remember this food wont do anything for me >turn around
dont be scared. you will not die. you will not fuck anything up. just start fasting. 48 hours 72 hours a week a month, just start
Henry Rogers
Water fasting, WTF? I've been doing it for 38 hours and only drinking water gets me chapped lips and yellowish brown pee.
Ayden Martin
I've actually fasted for two weeks with a meal in between. Losing 2 lbs a day. I'm a skelly underneath anyway. Honestly it's 100% true that it's easier for a skinny person to start working out than a fat person. Being heavy is like moving through mud every day. It feels like shit. Fat feels like shit. You want to sleep all the time. When you're not sleeping you want to sit down and eat. Now that I've been fasting I don't have time to eat, and I move around a lot more.
Daniel Ward
I think it's a dude, but if it isn't, cole is probably gonna thin her down then fuck her. It's like his fetish.
Christopher Garcia
Realistically If I do a 28 day fast, how much wieght will I loose?
I'm 250, 6'4", the only work out I do is 15 push ups, 25 sit ups every morning
Grayson Davis
He said on the stream that it's a chick
Noah Perez
what do the numbers signify?
Jose Jones
of course. but its a crash diet. you get to a point you like and then workout as you normally would. you dont fast to gain but to lose fat. at best you can expect to preserve muscle.
Caleb Price
whats with the flickering? is it the lizard people trying to brainwash us?
Luke Miller
sure, go ahead. add calories to your diet on a fast. completely checks out.
