So when you guys lost weight did you lose belly fat as well or did you find that the belly fat was stubborn and had to do extra work for it? My belly and waistline don't seem to be reducing and...
Okay, so apparently, BMR is how much calories your body burns while at rest. And a pound of fat is about 3500 calories. So if I have a BMR of about 1300 (used BMR instead of TDEE just to be...

Please help me make sense of this. My understanding has been that a food’s total fat content is the sum of saturated fat, unsaturated fat, and cholesterol. If this is true, then Oreos (7g total fat, 2g saturated fat, 0mg...

Is it true that you lose 2 pounds of fat everyday when you dry fast? I am 250 pounds so will i be able to lose 10 pounds of fat in 5 days of dry fasting?
My assumption is a little bit of both but from what I read it may just be a way to stay in ketosis

Sour cream with 18% fat costs 1€ and sour cream with 30% fat costs 2€. I thought the former is healthier because less saturated fat = lower risk of cardiovascular disease, but then why is it cheaper? Why would people...
Before I get downvoted to hell, i just want to see if y’all noticed any benefits with a low vs high carb diet. Of course this comes with the assumption that it’s minimally processed and full of variety, not a...
Is there a difference in the way the body processes these? I know that a processed carb is processed much faster than a whole carb that still contains its original fiber and such. I was wondering if the same concept...

Hi everyone, I started my IF journey roughly a month ago and since I don't have that much weight to lose but struggle with very stubborn belly fat and thighs, I thought it might be motivating to measure body fat. I've heard...

When we work out and lose weight, our fat cells shrink but are still there. Does dry fasting really dehydrate the cell to the point of it's death and subsequent removal or is this a myth?
Is it a study on it? Have y’all compared the two personally?
After 24h of waterfasting my Ketostrips barely change color, deep purple after 48h! Do I even burn any fat in 24h, or does my body just use glycogen which it refills when I eat again and no actual bodyfat was...

And if so, is it as bad as blended fruit juice/smoothies?
