I can testify to this. I do two meals over a 6 hour period and I have lost 57 lbs. I'm almost never hungry. I sometimes forget to eat my second meal. I don't count calories, I eat pretty much what I want. I did count my calories one day. I had a 1020-calorie breakfast and a 700-calorie dinner and I burned about 400 calories on my daily bike ride. That's a total of about 1300 calories for the day and I can't describe the feeling of bliss that I feel after 18 hours of fasting, like I am totally content and won't ever need to eat again. I started fasting because I was having a lot of issues with heartburn and a sour stomach. I didn't know about the weight loss part of it until I watched one of your videos. By the way, the heartburn and stomach issues cleared up that first night that I didn't eat dinner and they've not come back. I was insulin resistant before. I'd eat 3 to 4 thousand calories a day, always hungry and craving junk. I had a huge belly and felt terrible. My cravings for carbs have gone. I eat way more meat and vegetables now. some Fruit and some bread but not like before. My typical breakfast is huevos rancheros with bacon and greek yogurt. my dinner is usually a small piece of grilled chicken, pork, beef, or fish and a large salad with lots of bell peppers mushrooms and other vegetables and a bowl of berries with cream. I don't eat between meals and I drink water or unsweetened tea. I been riding my bicycle 7 miles a day and I'm getting ready to ramp that up to 10 for a bit and then 15 to 20 as I get my fitness back after having not done much riding during the winter. Just riding 7 miles a day has really got the weight coming off now. I hope to be at my goal of 108 lbs. lost by June. I started at 268 lbs. and I'll finish at 160. I know I'll eat like this the rest of my life. I wish I would have know this in my 20's. Thank you for all the videos. I've recommended this to many people but I think they can't get over the idea that they will be super hungry if they try it. I like to ride my bike in the morning when I've been fasting since 2 pm. the day before and to my utter surprise I can do it just fine. I don't even feel hungry at the end of my ride. That's because my body switches to burning fat easily now. I never "hit the wall" anymore.

Years ago I started depression eating. Lost a child, went through a divorce. I went from my normal weight of about 200 lbs up to 360 lbs in about a year. Then after a few years, started therapy, started healing emotionally. I started reading a lot about losing weight, and instead of the normal 3 large meals with snacks in between, I started a system where I would only eat between 8am and 6pm, every 2 hours only handful sized portions 6 times per day, less than 1000 calories per day, higher protein, lower carbs. And did a 5 day water fast every month. Moderate cardio and strength exercises every morning except weekends. I went from 260 back to 200 in just under 6 months. Has been my routine for several years now, and my weight only fluctuates between 200-220, which is ideal for my height and build.

Instead of keto, I would try the Mediterranean diet (one of the things it does is subs high glycemic index carbs like bread (any bread, even multigrain or dark-colored), white pasta, potatoes, and white rice with whole grains (whole grain pasta, quinoa, barley) and sweet potatoes; these are more healthy as they have more fiber and this slows down digestion and therefore dumping of sugar into the bloodstream, so you don't get as hungry right away. Add fat like butter to these carbs or olive oil for more satiety and less desire for snacking. No snacking except for occasional fruit! It's easier to maintain and healthier in my opinion (I'm a medical practitioner). Good luck!

If you want to lose weight, you don't need to go that low, but sub-100 is very effective when combined with other methods of weight loss. The principle behind keto is that fat is king, and insulin is evil (not completely evil, turns out it does a LOT of important things) so if you eat fat for energy, 2 things happen, your liver fires up fat burning enzymes, and your insulin levels drop and level out. Well, if you exercise more calories than you eat, the enzymes will take it from your fat cells. And since your insulin is low, and few carbs are present, your body will not make more fat. BUT keto affects everyone differently, and it has one large drawback. It is a lifestyle change. ie, permanent. I have done this and lost 60 pounds, but the rebound if you go back on carbs is INSANE. This is what Dr Berg is talking about when he says you can't lose weight with insulin running the show. It is EXTREMELY effective at replacing fat.

Ayinde Mitchell First off congratulations! That’s awesome, keep up the good work! How long had you been IF for at your 60lbs post? Also when you do eat, are you doing Keto or low calorie intake, or eating super clean? Or do you eat whatever you want within your eating window? Lastly are you working out too if so appx how often? Thank you in advance for your time any info you provide will be greatly appreciated! 😊

JustJess I started IF in February. Not including any Keto within my fasting. I did lower my sugar intake though. I stopped drinking alcohol in Jan. I believe that helped drastically in my wright loss. I'm down to 280 now and doing 19:5 daily. My diet consist of lots of salad to break my fast. My salads are amazing. I make amazing salads! LOL! Lots of Oranges and fresh fruit. I exercise as far as stretching and Cardio currently. I do about 9-11K steps a day from having active kids and my business. The inches I have lost are the most mind-blowing thing. Note to everyone: wear your nice clothes asap. They won't be wearable in a short amount of time. The clarity that comes with it is worth the journey.

Ayinde Mitchell hi just want clarify about the 6hour eating window do you eat 3 meals each day and no snacking? I wamted to do it 2meals each day is it ok? Your reply is appreciated as wanna start IF tomorrow.
@AyindesSeacret6 жыл бұрын
Marie Silva Howdy Marie! In my 6 hour window (Soon to be 5 hour since I've changed to a 19:5 window) I eat 2X's. My 1st meal consist of as many Oranges (cutties too) as I can eat, then Lots of Greens. I go for the 7 to 10 cups like Dr. Berg says with lots of fixings. Sometimes I don't eat that until 20 or 21 hours. Those days feel amazing. That 20 hour mark is magical. It's obvious why the experts say that now. And for my 2nd meal, I usually have what I cook for everyone else. Just less of it. You need less food because of IF. Cut down on the carbs if possible but you don't really have to from my experience. You'll still lose weight and inches from the internal changes. I have to increase my exercise rate. I'm down to 280 with not much exercise. Adding HIIT more frequently would have me in the 260 range fa sure! Hope that helped.

Aisha Shaikh so I did mine a little different. I worked at 6am. So I started eating at noon. I stopped at 8pm. Water water water... in between. And for my morning pick me up I had a sugar free monster. For the first month I had a cheat day once a week. The second month twice a month and then I kind of kept that for the next 6 months. I waited until I saw the plateau started. Then I did a little different I did an 18:6 so that I had the ability to get to that 20:4. My meals were very simple. Whatever I wanted, lol. Whatever I wanted to eat in that 8 hours, I did. If I wanted 6 small meals, sure, 2 medium meals absolutely. And sure I had some awesome meals days where I cooked and like did the healthy thing and then I had the 3 slices of pizza meals. When I got to the 6 hour window that was rough really rough because I was so used to eating for 8. I only go to the gym once a week. 10 minutes of hardcore cardio warm up 30 minutes of lifting and core training and a 10 minute medium level cardio cool down, then 45 minutes of a relaxing swim. I saw my energy triple quickly. Apparently I only require 4 hours of sleep. It’s insane! Now I’m on the 20:4... I’m rarely hungry. Sometimes my alarm will go off to tell me it’s time and I’ll just click it and forget. But I do eat two meals in that 4 hour window, they are just very small and very close together, because my body just doesn’t require what it did before. A lot of peanut butter, the natural kind. That has always helped the hunger in the beginning and now the sugar drop I experience.
@viena5176 жыл бұрын
Also now for cheat days I have those once to twice a week, because I’m far more active than I was before, so I’m constantly on the go, because I can’t sit for very long, it drives me crazy. A lot of things I have missed out on have come my way. And the fact that I didn’t have to have a weight loss surgery to aid me in this journey is 100% the biggest blessing this video could have ever done. I wish this was around when I was a teenager... but it’s cool I’m 35 but do not look it. Lol. I’ll take it. I’ll post a pic to help.

I am 53 years old and have always been active but could never figure out the perfect diet and exercise combo to get me that elusive GQ athletic physique. Intermittent fasting has absolutely been the final piece to the puzzle. I started keto and IF about a year ago with the advice I received from Dr Berg's YT videos. I have now been on the 20:4 schedule for the past 4 months and have finally leaned off the last 5 lbs needed to properly bring out my chest and abs. If you've done years of training and dieting only to continually be frustrated by your results you've got to give this a go. I started by simply giving up bread and sugar for the 1st month and slowly progressed from there. I now only need to work out half as much and still maintain the look I desire. My greatest satisfaction is in helping others achieve similar results. If you stay the course you will be rewarded. Feeling Minnesota at 6'3" 180lbs. Thanks Dr Berg!

I have lately developed knee pain and as a result my vigorous routine exercise has taken a serious blow. What I have gleaned from my life experience is that we have limitations in our lives. No matter how hard we try to keep ourselves heathy, at some point in time of our lives, our health eventually begins to deteriorate (that is natural given we just can’t ignore the presence of wear-and-tear of telomeres in our DNAs). Before developing knee pain, I truly had great feelings given my weight was way under controlled limits and I barely felt lethargic/sluggish or any kind of mental uneasiness like panic attacks and so on, however, with hours of exercise in sharp decline, my health is failing at a faster rate than do people I come across who never either pushed themselves to their limits but mostly stuck to moderate routine exercises. My advice to all is that stick to moderate exercises (max one hour daily). You may be 60 to 70% and not 90% healthy but you will last longer than those who pushed themselves to their limits.

You just answered one of my main questions. Instead of 2 meals with a 2 hour window in between, I can do OMAD and eat slowly enough to fill in that 2 hour window... I had Gastric and lost 160 lbs. But, with a lifetime of bad eating habits, I gained back 85 lbs over a 14 year period. I am back up to 335 lbs. I cannot eat a whole lot at one sitting, so I was eating 6 smaller portions throughout the day. Basically, I didn't have the knowledge of how our bodies work, until I found your videos here on KZfaq. I am excited to see how I do with OMAD and looking forward to feeling better soon!! God Bless!! =)

I'm 46, I was 220lbs (100kg), always done a lot of sports, I play hockey twice a week and Trailrun about 30km (19 miles) a week For about 2-3 months I read and listen to a lot of Video's from You and Tom Delauer and them my mind was set. From a 5 Meals a Day guy with that being a sugar and alcohol addict, I started the 2 Meals a day with a window of around 16/20:4 depending on days. I now weight 180lbs (81.5kg). Took around 4 months to loose all those 40lbs (18.5kg). If you believe in yourself and have the inner power, then you can achieve anything.

I've been intermittent fasting since January 6th. It is now February 10th. I have gone from 292 pounds to 271.6. This is not the first time I have done this. The first time I did fasting I was 375 and I got down to 277 in 7 months before gaining a little back. I fast between 16-24 hours everyday depending on what I ate when I broke my fast the previous day. I eat one meal then start fasting. I drink lots of water and tbh weight has been dropping off me. I've been eating pretty much whatever I feel like. Nothing processed and if I had to guess I'm eating between 800-1200 calories a day Edit- I'm a guy

I feel that way now, Scott. I've lost hundreds of pounds in my life, normally in chunks of 100+ at a time, only to gain it all back. Diet and exercise super hard, and after a year or so I give up and go back to my old ways because it's so difficult. Started Keto in Feb and I went from 370 to 305 lbs as of today. Still got a ways to go, but I'm never hungry. I do 16/8 as its really easy and manageable. I'm never hungry, and I'm really diggin it as far as a diet goes. Hopefully I can keep the pounds off this time. Wish you luck buddy!

I'd have a late lunch, a turkey sandwich with tomato, spinach, raw yellow onion, homemade pickels, and a slice of pepperjack cheese on 9 grain whole wheat bread. Mayo on one slice, mustard on the other. Then, I'd have an early dinner, a homemade maki roll (cucumber, avocado, green bell pepper, cream cheese, and tuna or chicken, topped with unagi sauce). I also drink lots of water, about half a gallon or more each day. If I get hungry, I drink water.

I've been using a home grown version of this and have gone from 380lbs to 250lbs with only diet and walking. Your videos have helped me understand what happened during the weight loss. I'm fine tuning my diet with your advice to be even more effective, 30 more lbs to loose. I'm 52, was recently talking to some guys in my age group. One brought up the fact that he missed how well he felt in his 30's and wished he felt that way again. Went around the group with everyone saying the same thing until me, I feel much better than I did in my 30's. I don't have chronic pain or problems and am more active with 0 medications now. Terrible to have wasted that part of my life, but wonderful that I found a solution and made changes before it's too late. Now I want to take those vacations with my wife to the beach, instead of staying locked in the room and grumpy! Funny how much the ancients knew about diet, psychology, etc that we usually ignore today...

If you’re a coffee drinker I recommend this awesome protein shake that I break my fast with everyday, it’s called premier protein shake & they have some pretty delicious flavors, I add half black coffee unsweetened & half of the premier shake (café latte flavor is my personal fave) & it’s a great substitute with way less calories plus protein is great when wanting to lose weight.

I just completed a 50 hour fast. It was easy. After stuffing my face for years, I stopped eating at 5pm. Wouldn't eat until 5pm the next day. There were few days at the beginning where I wanted to pull over for some fast food, but I drank black coffee and water. It wasn't too bad. Now, two weeks later, I don't have the cravings anymore. I'm mobile most of the day. No heavy lifting, but walking stairs, etc. I pushed it for the 48 hour fast and got to 50. I cooked a rib eye, some Greek Salad, and some asparagus. Made a smoothie with coconut milk, spinach, kale, avocado, blueberries, raspberries, and blackberries. I'll be good for tomorrow. Started at 212 lbs and weighed in this morning at 186.4. Not bad for two weeks. Gut is still there, but I am noticing definition in my face and neck. I suppose we lose from the outside inwards. Maybe the gut will be the last to go. Definitely have a lot more energy, focus, clarity. These videos helped me tremendously.
