Intermittent fasting is the practice of consuming your daily calories during a shortened eating window. Doing this helps you stabilize blood sugar levels and naturally reduce your calorie intake, leading to more efficient weight loss. The challenge is that to get the benefits, you have to train your body to comfortably go for long periods without food.
That is not a small obstacle, given today’s 24/7 access to highly appetizing foods. But anyone can achieve it with the right approach. This video shares four things that must be in place for fasting to work for you.

My toughest time is between dinner and bedtime - I was so used to eating chips, oatmeal, ice cream, cereal, whatever, right up until I went to bed. It's weird, but I find that if I just brush my teeth after dinner instead of waiting until bedtime, it's easier to resist food.

I have used IF for over 10 years. I went from eating 4 to 5 meals a day to fasting 18 hours a day. I have done several 5 day fasts and many 3 day fasts. Sometimes I will go 20 hours a day fasting. It depends on how I feel. I have never been overweight. I started IF because I felt I was becoming insulin resistant. IF works for me. Being hungry isn't the end of the world to me. I drink more water or just stay busy. No problem. I'm 82 years old. No meds and never get sick. When I started, I was a vegan. I just wasn't able to get enough to eat as a vegan. Now, I call myself a cheating vegan. I still eat healthy but have added some eggs and dairy when I feel like it. Thank you for the video. Makes sense.

There's a label for that eating. It's Ovo-Lacto Vegetarian. I used to be that. Now I'm just an omnivore who focuses on vegetables. I wish you could talk to my husband about not munching on carbs (popcorn, tortilla chips, saltines or other crackers, etc.) and filling p between meals. Because he won't eat much during the meals, he thinks he doesn't eat much. Like the snacking doesn't count. He's 80, and thinks it no longer matters. I'm 60, and convinced he doesn't have to feel so bad and choke down so many pills. Sorry for the vent. Thanks for the inspiration to try, try again.

Yup. I have been experimenting on myself. My "sugar" craving for foods like doughnuts I can predict when the cravings will start. I normally can only resist only for a short while and never succeed to hold it off for the remainder of the day. (No longer eat any to not start the cycle.) Going to fasting, I get can get hungry and it has a physical effect/feeling in the stomach that I can control with water and will power. Much easier to resist than the sugar craving.

I've recently started on a 15 / 9 regime [eating within a 9 hour window, starting around 9 am] and the first thing I noticed is that my sleep seems to have improved; I sleep longer and deeper than I used to when snacking during the evening. A wee tip; when your stomach feels empty during fasting, send a message to your brain so that a negative state becomes positive - I find mentally repeating the phrase "lean and clean" creates a positive response to an empty stomach.

If similar addictive chemicals are in the processed foods. I don't think it just goes away. These chemicals change brain chemistry. If after almost 9 months I'm no longer craving cigarettes until after I eat sugar or processed foods, something is wrong there. I know people who still crave cigarettes years later. Something is not right.

I’ve also cut out all processed food and sugar, and while I know that that food tastes amazing, I have the willpower to say no. If I can do it, anyone can do it. You just need the right motivation.

@@jones2277 For me, I couldn’t just go low carb cold turkey. I had to gradually ease into it. First off, you need to find out just how many carbs you are eating everyday. I was shocked to learn I was eating 400-500g per day! I had no idea I was that out of control. So what I did at first is cut down to the normal 250. Then gradually decreased from there. Now, a normal day for me is 50-75. This is easily sustainable too. Same for IF, gradual change. Didn’t start with a 16/8, started with a 12/12.

@cherylh4688 7 ай бұрын

@@micaelagomez363Yes, it is ok to have coffee when fasting. Even coffee with butter and MCT oil - the famous "bulletproof coffee" - is popular with veteran fasters, because none of those things will trigger insulin and break your fast. But not milk. I wouldn't add milk because of the carb content from milk sugar. But even fasting purists will still sometimes drink just plain coffee or tea.

@cherylh4688 7 ай бұрын

In the days when I was restricting salt for my blood pressure, I believed sardines, hot dogs, potato and corn chips and store-bought rotisserie chickens were my favorite foods! I literally craved them! Then, to reduce inflammation, I had to eliminate plants from my diet for a time and eat only meat. And at the same time, because on such a diet, there is a tendency initially to lose electrolytes (salt, magnesium and potassium), I started to salt my food again but only "to taste" AND to add powdered electrolytes to my daily diet. And to my great surprise, I lost ALL desire for those "favorite" foods, so much so that I even gave away all my packs of hot dogs that I kept in the freezer! It turned out those cravings were only my body telling me I needed salt! And now, after several months of this, the only hot dogs I can stand are Costco's, but even they make me feel queazy afterwards; I NEVER eat rotisserie chicken anymore, preferring to air-fry my own; and whenever I desire sardines, I eat them because I know that's just my body telling me I need more salt. (And anyway, they are really healthy, lol.) And if I ever feel a desire for salty chips again, I will just eat some sardines (or bacon) as well, for the same reason.😉 P.S. My guess is, if you check the labels of the "spicy" sauces or foods you sometimes crave, you will find they are very high in salt too. And so, a little shake of salt on the tongue or in water, or even better, a packet of electrolytes in water (especially sparkling water) will, I predict, take that desire right away!😉🤗

I've been intermittent fasting for years without even knowing it. This behavior simply became habitual, second nature, without any real conscious decision on my part to do it. And it's easy as long as I have something to concentrate on, some meaningful activity like work, exercise, writing, etc. I have found that hunger inspires great focus and when I'm focused, the hunger pangs go away which further feeds my focus. Commitment is the only requirement and belief that it can be done helps.

My own experience with starting intermittent fasting is that the best way for me is the opposite of the "start slowly and add hours to your fasting window gradually" approach. That just gives me a month-long period of hunger and discomfort. For me, it's better to start with a 1-week water-only fast, which quickly puts me in ketosis, reducing hunger and cravings. It makes me fat adapted quickly. Then, when I start eating after a week, it's smooth sailing and staying away from carbs is easy. It's far harder to have willpower for weeks and weeks on end gradually shrinking the eating window. Better to muster a large amount of willpower for one week and then relax. But we're all different - this is just how I work.

A great video with plenty of information to get fasting right. I have a soda machine and have a dozen 860ml bottles (about 30US fl oz) which I fill each morning and consume through the day, usually triggered by hunger pang. I flavour them with home grown limes lemons or grapefruit juice. I've just purchased a cold press juicer and have starred having a shot of ginger in the mornings. I try to get down a litre of water before before my morning coffee, usually around ten. I do that to avoid cortisol spikes. Breakfast soon after is a couple of poached eggs over smashed avocado. I enjoy this combo so I've brought a couple of avocado trees to plant out to add to my garden. I've lost 30kg over past two years and have another 20kg to go.

As a 64 y.o. with a fit Dad bod and a very long and durable chocolate habit I have learned a few things regarding IF. The first thing is that it can mess up sleep. The second thing is that it can be very distracting at work because if you are not shifted over into mild ketosis, then you will have a glucose deficit and not be thinking clearly. For those reasons I usually engage in IF starting at dinner then go for a long (2-3 hrs) bike ride at night and go immediately to sleep and don't eat again until lunch next day. The empty stomach which keeps me awake is offset by the mild fatigue which makes me sleep. Also the long bike ride drives my glucose down to about 90 mg/dL and ketones right to the edge of ketosis at .5-.7 mmol/L. So I get an immediate restorative sleep with low insulin and glucose/fructose levels. As an aside I do not have to contend with traffic danger and UV sunlight exposure after dark (Sunday -Wednesday are best). My A1C hovers around 5.0-5.2% with 6-8 hrs/week zone 2 exercise and significantly high daily sugar% chocolate consumption. I do not recommend night riding for women.

I agree that I can, and I have trained my brain to not feel hangry before I am ready to break fast. I do a 16/8 IF routine, but it's not always on the clock. Sometimes, depending on my busy days, I might have my last meal between 5 - 7 p.m., so I break my fast between 9 - 11 a.m., accordingly. Sometimes I even manage to eat my first meal even later; by noon or 1 p.m.

You don't really have to "train the brain" after the initial transition phase if you've also eliminated processed foods and sugars - at least, not if you have any body fat to lose - because once the body has retrained itself in how to burn fat for fuel instead of glucose, the body will be supplying it's own fuel and you simply won't need food in the same way anymore.

Anything requiring willpower will fail, in the long run. For me after a month without (sugar, flour, juice) I started fasting, first 3 weeks without breakfast then one day of water. At that moment, it's like opening a cage and letting me out. Life STARTED. I am 47, I got rid of ADHD, hunger, snacking, and acquired a clear mind and numbers memory THAT DAY. Then I felt more bouncy and started walking a little every day, my instinct says this time this is for good, I will no longer bounce back after a diet, because there is no diet, this is a rock solid lifestyle change with no looking back. I feel like 200% each morning after magnificent sleep. Poop is nice. I'm now a magnet with people, work is great, love is great, and I feel deep happiness and I am grateful. I use no will power, this is just bouncing from feel good to feel good in a flower field. Weight is just a side effect, just buy new trousers and don't care anymore.

This is the most accurate video I have seen. She is so correct with the fact that the hunger during the fast comes ….. but if you ignore it and realize it will pass soon, it goes away. #2 correct fact is that your hunger goes away when you get used to fasting…..we fast for 18-20 or so every day with success with no hunger. Amazing how it works. # 3 correct fact is that if you eat excess carbs at your eating window, you will not be able to stop eating. Everything she said in this video, we experience in our fasting life. It is a great lifestyle to cut down on your hunger and feel satisfied. Great on your grocery bill also.

Once you are settled into a schedule you can cheat on occasion. Sometimes I have a cookie or two, but only after my main meal. I don’t have a weight issue, though. If I did, anything extra would be an even rarer occurrence. I don’t eat for anywhere from 6 to 11 hours before bed and get better rest for it.

Having been doing It for 6 years now. I don't feel hunger at all. If I eat early on a weekend I feel awfull. It was hell at the start but now, I can't do without it.

I started your 1 2 3 plan over 4 yrs ago and lost 15 lbs. I've gained and lost it about 3 times since. Vacations usually get me off track and it snowballs from there when i get back home. Currently i do 20:4, but am not going anywhere with losing the 10 lbs i need to lose again. This video encouraged me to stop eating my trigger foods during my eating window even though i don't really struggle to fast 20 hrs.

I'm doing intermittent fasting for about 3 years (basically when I started keto). The more fats I consume (and of course less sugar) the easier it is to fast (which for me is 19-22 hours per day). Having a physically moderate job doesn't create any issues, in fact it is hands down the best way to burn fat. No hunger pangs and when there are some weak feelings of hunger - a bit of black coffee or green tea does the trick immediately. But the biggest thing is just to be physically busy. In weekends when I rest more, watch YT videos - then I have to battle some sugar cravings. So I would like to recommend everyone some mild black coffee or green tea as they don't interrupt fasting and autophagy.

A growing number of studies have found that eating fiber-rich vegetables, protein or fat at the start of a meal, and eating refined carbohydrates like rice, bread or pasta last, can improve blood sugar levels and stimulate higher levels of hormones that promote fullness and satiety.

@florenceledgister7327 4 ай бұрын

A thorough deivery. Thank you Dr. I am struggling at fasting. The ideaof going 16 hours without even a snack is mind boggling. The in- cremental hours of fastin is attractive to me, and the methodology seems doable albeit that it comes down to self-control and endurance. Thanks again. 👍🤔😊🌴

❤ Good Morning, Dr. Becky. I really appreciated your video. I’ll be traveling with friends in a couple of days and your video inspired me to not only prepare the correct foodstuffs/have food available that follows my chosen eating lifestyle. You covered so many topics that are crucial to adhering to a certain way of eating that has brought my body a state of serenity and freedom of pain as I age. I agree that going without food for 16 hours or more can be intimidating. I’ll be sitting in the back seat for several hours with people who choose to consume a SAD (Standard American Diet). I need to plan ahead to combat their cravings. ‘Found myself researching restaurants within walking distance of the hotel where we’re staying. I inevitably eat off-plan with these friends, away from my husband’s altruistic oversight (he only wants me to be happy, healthy and free of pain). I know that now, after being honest with myself, I will be packing to include easy-to-eat foods, prepared foods or foods that I can microwave when I choose to break my fast with the correct foods. I know I’ll be eating out at restaurants with my friends and yes, I can afford to eat what I want, but it never hurts to plan ahead. I will continue my 16:8 fasting window (as it not only helps with my recovering from my last episode of binge-eating…have dealt with an eating disorder[s] most of my life) that my mind will be clear, my body feeling energized and ready to have fun with my friends! Thank you for all that you do for us out here struggling to find health and wellness solely through dietary change.❤

@@beckygillaspy Copy for Dr what I wrote :. " Well how did I lose 30 pounds in one month, how? I'm 6'2" tall and weighed 245-248 the last few days I'm about 217 pounds! 48 years old! A month ago I had severe stomach pains in the hospital diagnosed with gallstones! I refused the surgery the doctors insisted on and sent me home with antibiotics I changed my diet completely suddenly! No fatty food, food with oil! The menu is sardines, not fatty chicken, turkey! Small amounts! Small amounts of bread, small amounts of pasta (a small portion of spaghetti with sauce without oil) one piece of pizza no 3- 4 as before! Beans, peas, spinach, fruit, peppers! Potatoes etc etc... so I eat most of the food but small meals! No cream, no milk, maybe but fat free! My wife is afraid of how many pounds I lost in a short time! But regardless of my diet I will probably have to have my gallbladder removed!Now I have an appointment with a surgeon on Thursday! 😖 "

Great advice. I'm approaching my 5th year of IF. It's been a terrific approach to eating. I wish more people would try IF. There are 100+ million overweight people struggling with their well-being because they dont know how to eat properly.
