NOTES:
9 Thigs to overcome hunger when fasting
1. Stabilize your blood sugar by eating good fats
2. Decide how long are you going to fast
3. Think about how food is a state changer
4. Stay busy
5. Know your hacks
6. Watch your mindset
7. Measurement helps
8. Know how to break your fast
9. Reward yourself
Think about all the mental space that would be freed up when you're not worrying about what you're going to eat next?
I learned this on my most recent episode of @theresetterpodcast with Dave Asprey. We talked about several fasting hacks, including how to manage the hunger hormone ghrelin.
Ghrelin is behind the intense hunger and irritability/anger you often feel when you start fasting. It's not that your body actually needs food in that moment to survive (it has plenty of fat stores), but ghrelin makes you believe you must eat right away.
You know what helps calm and re-calibrate ghrelin? Ketones!
There are a few other hacks Dave mentions in the podcast, including soluble fiber, buttered coffee and MCTs.

My fasting hack is to declutter and reorganise my home. I pick a drawer, a rail, a shelf, a box, a bag or a cupboard and I start throwing away anything broken, stained or useless! Then I fill a box or bag with anything I don't need, use or want, to give away. And anything else gets put away in the best place for it to be. (Throw Away, Give Away, Put Away) It absolutely takes my mind off feeling hunger, takes hours longer than I think it will and extends my fast painlessly and productively ;-) My home is losing excess weight too. lol.

I don’t know why but I actually like the feeling of hunger when I am fasting. I have a history of binging in years past and alternate day fasting has helped me totally regain control of my eating. For once in my life I feel in control so I look forward to hunger pangs because I tell myself that it’s ok because my body will break off some of my body fat. Even though the hunger is there, I do not feel the need to binge. I know my next meal will be here soon enough and So I can wait it out.

I can feel and see the difference! The first couple of hours I was hungry but after the second day it started to diminish and I was able to practice self-control. Now, I have a different relationship with food. I'm able to have smaller portions because I've come to the realization I can go without stuffing my face three times a day! Thanks, Dr. Mindy.

She is SO RIGHT about being on low carb/keto before fasting. I noticed once I changed to a low carb diet my fasts were not hard at all! One example dinner for me would be Salmon (with garlic, lemon juice, pink salt, cayenne pepper, EVOO) asparagus with Parmesan, & cauliflower rice. I have this at least once a week. The rest of the week I switch up the meats and veggies. I get totally full and I’m happy! If I want something sweet after I go for Greek yogurt with blueberries and topped with my keto granola 😉 it has worked for me! Went from a size 14 to a size 2 in two years 😃🙌

I just finished a 90 hour fast (6 hours short of 4 days). The first 3 days were easy and I WAS, like dr. Pelz, working very hard at my desk, very busy. But I had no dizziness or light-headedness. On 2 of the days I even cycled about 75 minutes a day. The 4th day was a bit harder and I became tired and a bit listless, so lay down twice during the day (broke the fast at 6pm evening). I think the only reason the first 3 days were easy was because of lots of practice in shorter fasts since 6 months ago. I have already done 3 fasts of 3 days, and intended here to do the same, but decided, seeing I was doing so well, to see if I could do a 4th day . . .Nearly did, but stopped 6 hours short of 4 days. 90 hours. Fasting is the best discovery !!!

Hunger is a temporary feeling but it is a blessing. It helps to remind u that when ur hungry if u break the fast it will actually feel worse to eat then to keep fasting , the thing that makes fasting difficult is the fatigue , but there are ways to breakthrough it and access supernatural energy through the Word of God. also u wont be hungry forever the feeling will go away . it may come back at times in waves but u can use that as a reminder to pray. When u fast and pray and read Gods word the Bible , you are actually feeding your spirit .When you Pray and Fast the way God intended Miracles tend to happen . Your more connected to Jesus Christ the One and Only true God . I dare you the person reading this that the next time you fast to Pray to Jesus Christ and to read the bible . i Guarantee you , you will experience something Supernatural . Seek the Lord while he may be found . Repent the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand .

Very helpful advice. I’ve been fasting since the age of 10 during Ramadhan. This taught me over the years that it’s not the end of the world when we go without food. In my early 50’s, I started intermittent fasting and built up gradually. When I was menopausal, I gained a colossal 20kg which is around 44 lbs. I’ve been slim all of 13:19 my life as I was a professional ballet dancer with the Paris Opera Ballet. I’m now a teacher for the same company. I’m 1.68cm tall and was an active 47kg, around 103 lbs. I had back ache, pain in my right hip and knee, due to the added weight. I eat a Mediterranean diet throughout my life but menopause was a shock! I’ve tried and failed sometimes during intermittent fasting. I now have strategies to keep me on track, especially ballet photos of me and the corps de ballet and this is a huge motivation for me. Losing weight after menopause is very difficult but the solution for me is to focus on how I feel if I fall off the wagon. I lose confidence, I don’t want to socialise and become sad when my clothes don’t fit me. Intermittent fasting is tough but the benefits are out of this world. I do 3 day fasts, switch to 20 hour fasts for 2 days and go back to 3 day fasts. It’s the only thing works for me. Thank you for your advice and tips, they help a lot of us. 💕

@CarbageMan 3 жыл бұрын

May sound crazy, but if I can take a walk, it helps. I think the moderate cardio creates a subtle increase in ketones and decrease in blood sugar, suppressing hunger. In fact, having been diagnosed diabetic before going keto, I start my mornings-especially fasting-with a walk. Apple cider vinegar (1 tbsp in 8oz water) also helps suppress hunger, and that's great first thing in the morning, too. I put 1 tbsp lemon juice, 1/2 tsp NoSalt potassium chloride (in the salt section of your store), 1/4 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp baking soda in it too. This is a good time to supplement magnesium also (magnesium glycinate, magnesium malate or magnesium threonate-the glycine in the first is relaxing, magnesium malate is a mild stimulant, magnesium threonate delivers magnesium to the brain, uniquely.) These make the biggest difference to me. I think restlessness while fasting are often an electrolyte imbalance. If it's insomnia, then the magnesium glycinate may help. One more thing: try to avoid magnesium citrate. It'll can cause you to empty your colon! If you aren't prepared for it, you may have a mess when you least expect it.

Every time the hunger comes, i remember another amazing dr.wrote on IF, "Ride the waves" so I just let the hungry sing in my belly, coz it will come and go, just ignore it.. One think can do is while hungry or becoming fatigue or dizzy, take a pinch of salt in warm water and drink it. Or just put straight away on your tongue if you like it. They will go away.. Everytime i think to give up from IF and keto, i come to listen to these amazing doctors whose fighting for IF for the societies, though they were being criticized by the food industry manipulators. They made me motivated again and again. Thank you to these Drs including Dr.Mindy who are amazing! I couldn't thank you more..God bless you❤

At first It was just IF then did some research about keto and after 2weeks I added lowcarb high fat diet, it took sometime since I was so skeptical that this would work for me because of my high blood pressure. But it turns out that saturated fat is not the issue, it was the carbs and sugar.

One of the things I had to break was the thoughts that we had to eat at specific times, by the clock. Now everyone just eats when they're hungry and it's much smoother and easier. I know many people think it's just weird and you should eat breakfast at seven, lunch at twelve and dinner by six. Now we don't worry about the clock.

I agree! As an alternative, a 3-month supply of Dr. Berg's electrolytes is a little on the pricey side ($44?, so $15/month) but worth it. Very high quality. No stevia or any sweeteners like her LMNTO recommendation. A pricey glucose blood monitor is not needed unless you have diabetes or some other condition. You can get ketone test strips for cheap and other things on Amazon. They are as accurate as the blood meter. Btw, with her glucose-ketone meter, you have to buy more sharps and strips after the initial supply runs out. When hungry, weigh yourself. The satisfaction of weight loss is huge motivation to continue on and forget hunger.

Week and do a shorter fast 2 days a week to give myself a mental break. I eat only salmon, fruits, and healthy beans. The two days im not so restrictive I allow myself to eat whatever i want. I drink liquid IV on super restricted days. I feel like doing this is 98% mental for me. I have completely changed my mindset and focus on why im doing this. I still struggle with hunger but i stay busy and keep my mind busy. After i dont give in I feel mentally stronger. Its definitely mind games. Its like im at battle with myself. I do get my vitamin levels checked just to make sure im getting everything I need. Not only have I lost weight i have now reduced my A1C levels to a normal range, my cholesterol is in normal range, and i also quit smoking cigarettes over a year ago. This isn't even a diet for me. it's now a way of life. Thanks for the informative videos. 😊

You mentioned this as part of your third tip, but I think for new fasters that it should be emphasized and explained; your hunger will go away on its own if you just wait (do nothing). When I began fasting, the pattern for me was when I felt hungry, I ate. If I didn't eat right away, my hunger increased (a more urgent signal to eat). I didn't have any experience with NOT eating when that signal was received, so I didn't realize that the hunger wouldn't CONTINUE TO INCREASE until my willpower inevitably gave out. After I figured out that hunger comes in waves that it can be ridden out until the hunger disappears was helpful to me. However, there is some suffering that goes along with trying to ride out the hunger wave on willpower alone, so you're tips are great for mitigating the amount of suffering that must be endured.

If you feel hungry, then you should not be fasting as that causes too much stress hormones to be released and may not benefit your fast. You need to get yourself to be fat adapted first, took about 6 weeks by cutting down your carb intake to below 20 percent. Once fat adapted, you can skip meals without feeling anything, in fact even more comfortable as you will have no fart nor gas etc, and you will be surprised you have more strength, like able to do 2 to 3 extra pull ups than what I normally can do (15). Hunger happens because you are addicted to carb and is a response to carb withdrawal symptom!

I've lost 40lbs this year due to fasting, its a fascinating practice, it's a great start to reducing weight if you're obese and likely sedentary, and then (like I am) once you plateau you finally get into the spot where exercise is your next step, and you've already made serious improvements. I think that's a recipe for progress. Getting food urges down is a great first sort of problem to figure out.

Since discovering Dr Mindy a couple of weeks ago, I've watched so many of her videos and find them fascinating. For the last couple of weeks, I've been doing a 36 hour fast starting on a Sunday night which takes me through to Tuesday. I weighed myself this morning and the weight is dropping off again. I don't exercise on Mondays so I don't know if this makes it easier. During these fasting periods, I've been training for marathons and triathlons and have been getting quicker at both without any injuries. I do have to break the fast on a Sunday morning as I can't imagine running 10-16 miles with no food in me. A stupid question I know, but does taking medicines break a fast? I'm on tablets to help with excessive sweating whilst exercising that basically dry you up. I've not been taking them on a Sunday or Monday night but could do with them. It's also be interesting to hear Dr Mindy's views on fasting and exercising for endurance events such as marathons, triathlons and Ironman. I

Thanks for your invaluable insights Doctor 🙏🏼🙂💐 Sharing some info.. Hope all will like it 🙂🙏🏼 EKADASHI is 11th day of Moon.. Its a fasting program done twice a month on 11 th day of moon cycle. Starts on 10th day evening... Fasting starts there at sunset... 5.30 pm and whole night upto next day 11 th day Ekadashi whole day and night and On Dwadashi is 12th day early morning wake up early, do pooja rituals and have One good meal with specific type of greens which burns fat n rice, pulses, soaked dals with veg n lemon juice, water. From 10th evening to 12th morning... No food, No water On 11th night No sleeping.. To avoid getting drowsy.. Prayers n Songs are sung in Praise of Bhagawan ( God) Then 12th day Dwadashi... One is not to sleep till sunset. No snacking. Afternoon.. Just light lunch / optional.. Best not to. Around 5- 7 pm... Light dinner This gives 40+ hours of fasting and gives ability for self -control of senses including sleep. During 10th, 11th n 12th day much silence towards worldly matters is observed to curb bad habits of tongue n thoughts n its actions. This is practiced among Vaishnava Hindus and hence they have healthy mind, body, habits, excellent persona😍🙏🏼 Glad to see modern scientists n doctors at last are understanding the Value of fasting, food choice, time to eat rules etc . 😃🙏🏼 Our Ancestors Ancient Methods are WISE N IMPLEMENTED INCORPORATED WITH LOT OF THOUGHT 🙏🏼🙏🏼 Jaya Sri Sita Rama 🙏🏼🚩🙏🏼🚩 Jaya Sri Hanuman 🚩🙏🏼 🇮🇳Jai Hind!🚩
