I do 36/12 and (mostly this)40/8 to.. Been doing it for 1.5 months and lost 27.7 lbs so far (did have a 2 week vacation in that period).
I try to eat low carb but not dedicated keto. I some times eat som potatos or rice for the dinner meal. So far this has worked greate for me but its a mental game keeping my hands away from food on the fasting days still.. Its getting “better” but every day the food demon tryes to convice me to get a smal snack or two
You will lose more with ADF but esp with ADF & keto or LC. I found ADF + keto + TMAD on eating days super effective. As you get smaller/lighter, your body will require less energy to run, so this is also a time to learn to eat differently so you do not gain it right back, kwim?
i do the same 36/12 or 40/8
problem was that i was gaining weight doing that, crazy, i was eating normal and drinking water and tea.
now i go keto and i dryfast in the 36 hours and also try not to overdrink in the eating window
