How long to continue 60-12 for?

I am doing 60-12 since 5th November. İ e İ have completed five 60-hour-fasts. İ have lost 5 kgs(11 lbs) since then Frankly speaking this is perfect for me and I can keep doing this forever or atleast thats what it feels like right now. İ had initially planned on doing ten 60-hour-fasts. Should İ keep doing it till İ reach my GW? Or should I go to 40-hour-fasts after the ten 60-hour-fasts.

Answer

If you have an approach that:

  1. Is working
  2. Is sustainable

Why mess with it? I’d ride this approach until either #1 or #2 stops being true. The only slight tweak would be to be a bit more conscious of nutrition during the refeed. You’re probably burning through some nutritional reserves with the repeated fasting.

If you’re looking for something subtle such as sustained 60 hour fasts doing being less efficient long-term in a way that switching to 40 hours won’t be, I don’t think our storehouse of knowledge about fasting is large enough to answer that.
