I did an extended fast from Jan 1 to Jan 6, starting at 119,5 kgs, and ending at 110 kgs.
I’ve done this the last couple of years, but I was 10 kgs heavier than usual for Jan 1st this year. I usually go back to lazy Keto after my fast, but this time I am doing strict Keto, and 18:6, and the weight keeps going down. This morning I weighed in at 108 kgs, and I feel bloody fantastic. My goal of 99.5 Kgs doesn’t seem that far away right now ( I am 191cm and muscular)
I was going to make a similar point, this is life changing.
On day 8 of an extended fast and have gone further than the last 2 years of dieting.
It’s hard, but in some strange way feels easier than maintaining a diet.
Congrats to you bud, I went from 205 lb to 184 and counting
I used to fast for around 5 days at a time and it always worked the same, lose 4-5 kgs break the fast put back 2-3 kgs over the next week and start again.
Now I’ve switched to eating keto (lazy because I’m lazy but my carbs are probably like 10grams) and the difference is mind blowing, the weight doesn’t come back and as you say sometimes it continues to fall off between fasts.
It really is a magic bullet.
