I’m an obese individual, wanting to speed it up. Even if it’s not only fat being lost but water weight too, I don’t mind. I just need to get down the scale for now.
Be mindful of the eating periods. If you overindulge you will not see any loss. I like to use a program like weight watchers, the free version is the Healthi app, and stick to that on eating days. I think that program is great for portion control during my feed days. Also, while I commend you for trying fasting, loosing isn’t going to be fast. Faster, yes, but have realistic goals and work towards them. We didn’t get overweight over night and we won’t lose it overnight. Good luck and good health!
Change the laws of thermodynamics. Seriously, you will lose weight quickly if you are obese. Fasting is already the absolute fastest way to lose weight. This mindset is going to set you up for failure because it is 1) unsustainable 2) going to make it that much more unpleasant 3) you will not be pleased with the results even if you actually are making progress. Try to have some patience with yourself. Fasting is very stressful on the body and is equivalent to starting a new strenuous fitness routine. It is going to take some training to get used to it. Take it slow and steady. You wouldn’t run a marathon with zero training.
