Two-thirds of women 40-59 years old are overweight and more than 1/2 are obese. Intermittent fasting can help women lose weight effectively. And can have profound impact on bio-physical profiles, but also improved self esteem and interpersonal relationships. It is easy to implement, it is inexpensive and flexible.

My intermittent fasting consists of eating between 12pm and 4pm and fasting the rest of time. I have been doing this for over eight months and I feel as good as I can be at my age (I will be 77 in a few days!) I am extremely poor, so I can't afford the best quality salmon, and most of my vegetables, avocados, and nuts are not organic, but I eat as healthy as my budget allows. Sometimes what you don't eat is just as important as what you eat. Avoid processed and sugary foods, avoid restaurants (I can't afford them anyway!), make everything from scratch, chew your food well, etc. Hope it helps!
Good on you! Great to hear from someone else who lives onn the poverty line! This is very encouraging.
You are an inspiration, i wish you a lot of health❤
you are not poor in any way sir health is wealth
❤️❤️❤️
How you doing now pal? A true inspiration I hope you’re doing well 🙏🏻
The human body actually needs way less food than we think it does...
@ageofbogyo I think most people actually confuse hunger with appetite. They want to eat as distraction, for pleasure, to feel good
@ageofbogyono evidence to support this myth
I dunno. I’m here as a high schooler doing 3 hours of sports and 1 hour lifting sessions in a day and I think I need more food than the average person. But I want to lose weight while keeping myself energetic
ageofbogyo this is true for me. I’ve noticed that when I crave cereal and milk, it’s actually water that my body needs.
@@speedysloth203 yes but you're not 'the average person'
I have been intermittent fasting (16:8) for the past 3 years. At my last visit to my doctor's visit she told me she had never seen cholesterol levels as low as mine in any patient my age (66yrs). IF is not just about losing weight. It is a healthy lifestyle.
Hello - congratulations :) What do you eat during your window. Any exercise?
@@branisima I eat whatever I want, sometimes healthy and sometimes not. Walking is my only real exercise. I have a dog and so walk with him a lot.
@@katharinpritchard7006 thanks for the reply. Were your cholesterol levels high before IF?
@@katharinpritchard7006 Hello - just wanted to say that I had my first cholesterol blood panel done since before the pandemic (2019) and my overall cholesterol went down 67 points and my LDL went down 50 points! I was borderline high and am now normal (started IF after the panel in 2019). Weight is the same as it was in 2019 so IF is the only thing that changed. I also walk A LOT and stop eating by 2PM each day (some days one meal and some days two but always stop by 2PM and NO snacking :))
@@branisima Truly a simple change in lifestyle that has huge benefits. Good for you!
I started 16:8 intermittent fasting two weeks ago and have never felt better. I have about 30 pounds to lose and so far lost 8 pounds. The best part for me has been the renewed energy and less brain fog. I have an autoimmune disease and there were days that I could barely get out of bed. I feel so much more productive now. I can actually play with my kids and be attentive to my husband. I’m making dinner again and walking everyday. The impact this has had on my life and relationships is just incredible. I’m hooked. I’ll be doing this for life.
Thank you for that input
How's the weight loss now? I'm almost 50, male, and started this yesterday hoping to shed 45 lbs. by football season.
WHAT IF I TOLD YOU that breakfast is the first meal of the day regardless of what time you eat it?
Don’t we all know that?
Yes, but what about second-breakfast?
@@darinclay6838 I understood that reference. 😂
@@darinclay6838 What about elevensies?

Been fasting for 2 months now, I’m just a regular guy with regular work hours, local truck driver, just wanted to post for encouragement. I’ve lost 30 pounds in 2 months with no other changes other than fasting. No exercise no supplement. Anyone can do it 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼and I cheat, I have coffee with cream every morning 😑
Wow...wtg...that's impressive...you did not even change what you eat? What time of day do you break your fast?
Really Fernando? i was worried about my hazelnut creamer.
Two cups a morning. Thank you so much.
@@berlindadowse3550 this is incorrect. If you’re putting anything in your mouth with calories aka creamer, you are BREAKING your fast. Look it up!
@@Toohot2handle758 too good to be true! dang it. ok. no more creamer! thanks for your concern. I plan to look good for my wedding in Feb. Not much time left.
Hehe.I have instant coffee every morning. That's my breakfast... I didn't know it was itermidiate fasting. Till someone told Me. I ate late lunch around 3pm-4pm. Now had lost 5kg within 2+ months. I will do this till I reach the target or not sure till when but I don't want be scalliton.
My husband, 37 and I, 33, have been doing intermittent fasting for 4 years. We started because of Dr. Berg. But this ted talk is very appreciated. Our health has improved tremendously with IF. We do 23:1 on weekdays Monday-Friday. And 20:4 on weekends. We have 2 kids together who eat very healthy & are not overweight. Unfortunately everyone in our families are either overweight, obese, and even morbidly obese on both sides. Both side's our families have numerous health issues & unfortunately passsing away early. My husband & I decided that will not be US. And we have dedicated for the past 4 years to IF and animal based diet all being organic and grass fed of course. We are the only ones in our families that are not overweight & are very healthy. Zero health issues. We plan to do this the rest of our lives.
Time to start talking to the rest of your family...as if you are preaching.
Thats a brilliant story and has me starting fasting today with 16-8 plan. ❤
you should make sure 1 meal a day every day isn't unhealthy though. i think it is not regarded as healthy. still needs absorbing of many nutrients.
This is my third week today, Saturday fasting from 2 pm to 6 pm, i eat 2 small healthy meals in that 5 hrs. I've lost lots of weight, and i feel much more alert and happier. I have ptsd and chronic anxiety after a serious motorcycle accident, losing many bones and brain bleeds. Im never hungry now like i was before. I now already look at food as fuel. No cravings either. I take apple cider vinegar with lemon, turmeric, ground ginger, cinnamon, and half teaspoon of celtic salt or himalayan salt. No more ppi for acid reflux as it's gone completely. I've been doing the drinks for months now. I cured my 54-year asthma with nac and other supplements.
I might be ill and treat my body bad in the past with alcohol and drugs, but im clean 5 years and started this fasting 3 weeks ago as i know i will get better and fasting is will help repair me mentally and physically.
Never give up
❤️🙏💯
@cetvies-author-writer I try to eat at 1pm then again before 6pm as i didn't like the 1 meal a day thing tho im more or less on that as never hungry now.
This TED talk got me going on intermittent fasting 3 years ago and I have been able to maintain my weight ever since which is a miracle considering my history for the fifty years of my life since about age 12. It was always the yo-yo experience with my weight. I was actually on Weight Watchers on my Bar Mitzvah day! By doing the 16/8, I have been able to stay within 1 pound of my goal weight every day with no exceptions for 3 years, since age 62. I really cannot believe it.
SAME! It cured me off all ailments.
That's great! What time is your eating window?
woww❤🎉
Breakfast is the first meal you take when you Break your Fast....but nobody said it had to be in the morning 😜
Mind blown 😊
Exactly. An alternative that works for many is to skip dinner and make your "fed" window 8 am to 4 PM. This is perfect for people with early work shifts
Preach
Exactly!!! I usually start eating at about 12pm. Early Mornings are lemon Juice with vinegar water and a dash of sea salt water...and I can stay full until 12pm off of that.
Brilliantly said!
I’m 73 years old. Down 50 pounds in 7 months. Doing 16/8. No problem.
Did you follow a specific eating plan as well?
I’m 60 years old, I want to do it! Thanks Ronald
You’re an inspiration sir
Be still, my beating heart!!!
Hope I can do it too! I feel sort of addicted to food. All very healthy though. Just too much of it.
About to be 68 and I’ll give it a go. What was your best strategy if you felt hungry?
Congrats to you! ☮️
Down 30lbs been doing this about 7 months and its is now how I will live.
I started fasting on 3 Jan this year with walking 30 minutes and minimal exercise, I lost 1.5 kg in a week.. it's motivating me to continue with this. I hope I can reach my target with help of IF 😍
Well done! How are you getting on in the last 2 weeks?
That's my birthday! Not relevant information at all but I felt like sharing anyway. 😊
I have been doing IF for 2 months from 15 feb to 15 april. I have lost 6 kg in 1st month and 2 kg in 2 nd month. I’m male 32 yrs old 5 11. I weight currently 74 kg so that’s my ideal weight for the body. And I’m focusing more on lean muscle mass now that obesity is a thing of past for me.
@@vidyutdevam9204do you work out as well with IF?
Did u keep up with it? I also started IF on new year's Eve. I'm already feeling amazing. Also, off topic:- we got the same name. Aiswarya 🫶
I adopted intermittent fasting into my life in 2022 with the 16:8 method and have lost 60 pounds for the year. I can truly say that this was the most effective method for me. In over 10+ years I have tried so many methods and spent thousands of dollars on trying to lose weight. With IF, I am not as hungry and my energy level was so high. IF has truly changed my life.
Did you eat whatever you want during feeding time?
so true, my wife lost her birth wt in just 4 mos. Her friend did the same thing and also lost the birth wt the same timeframe
Rare, in today's age, that someone 1: actually shares the details without just hinting they are in a book you have to buy, and 2: isn't selling powders, pills, or shakes.
So true 👍
And the vid still gets 4,2k dislikes.. ridiculous
Eric Berg, anyone? :D
Real nutritionists don’t sell anything.
@@DenVaagheid from personal trainers...diet pill salesman....
She failed to mention the best part. You are fasting while you sleep, so it is really only eight waking hours you have to be concerned about.
It really is the best part :)
Not if you ate heavy the night before you slept. That defeats the purpose because then the body is busy processing sugars and fats rather than undergoing self de-oxidation. The key is to sleep at night on an empty stomach
Yup Bill your absolutely correct 😉
This is so important. I didn't learn about proper food and eating practises from my parents. We would eat and snack before bed. For years I woke up feeling nauseous and tired, from overeating before bed. Now I try not to eat after 8pm, and when I do I feel so tired and slow in the morning. We need an empty stomach during sleep, digestion is a taxing process and requires energy. Let your body focus on what it needs to during Sleep!
So true Caesar, a 12 hour fast starting two hours before bedding down has changed my life.
I am a 72 year old male who began intermittent fasting to lose weight. Over two years after reaching my weight goal (and maintaining it), I continue to IF because it just feels healthier to me. I like the fact my organs get nice long daily break. I now believe that if you eat proper food and exercise about a half an hour daily, you will not be overweight and you will not get hungry. Your body adapts well and rewards you when you are doing all the right things.
Thanks for sharing. Do you do 16/8. Also if I can ask, what's the big thing you notice from when you were 62 and then at 72. I guess I'm just preparing myself for when I hit 60 in 5 yrs. then 70. Thanks..!
I decided to start fasting in August. Having severe joint pain, and little energy, I had to take naps during the day. I felt old at 66. I have also been following a keto diet since last Feb.2022. It is now Jan., 2023 and to date I have lost 39#. I am 5"2', and 138#. I was 177# when I started, and had high blood pressure. my bp has come down and I am now off my bp meds. My cholesterol has also dropped significantly, and my heart rate has dropped from 100 bpm to 66 bpm. I have so much energy now and am so clear minded! All of my inflammation is gone. I hope to make this a way of life!
She is ABSOLUTELY right! I lost 60lbs skipping "the most important meal of the day." I tried the 16:8. The first 30lbs was lost with no exercise or diet change, the last 30lbs were lost with diet change and exercise. It was hands down one of the best changes I have ever made in my life.
How long did it take to lose all of that?
Rising The first 30lbs happened in 3 months. I was blown away! The next 30 took a bit longer, around 5 months when I added some resistance training, so I really had to control my appetite and work hard to not fall into bad eating habits again. But I made it! And it was the best decision ever. So 8 months lol.
@@thomaswilbornjr3128 Well done. And could you tell me what did you eat and did you control your calories?
@@milayorkk4275 Thank you! In the beginning my diet was still very poor, fast food, some fruits and veggies and lots of water,but because I only had 8 hours to eat I was in a caloric deficit. After 3 months I was so motivated I decided to eat clean. Lots of spinach and kale salads and smoothies, I still eat pizza lol just in moderation now. Plus lots of protein.
@@thomaswilbornjr3128 thank you for an answer. Good luck 😊
I tried this for 3 weeks. One month later I wore a linen suit to a summer party. It hadn't fit me for 5 years.
Kudos for the Video clip! Forgive me for the intrusion, I would love your opinion. Have you tried - Dinanlinson Amazing Look Approach (just google it)? It is an awesome exclusive product for learning how to quickly lose weight minus the headache. Ive heard some extraordinary things about it and my close friend Aubrey got great results with it.
That's awesome 👏🏼
Whoah! That's fantastic!!
That is Awesome!
Right! I’m down almost 15 in a month! It hasn’t been nearly as hard as I thought.
Been living like this for a year it’s been unbelievable I couldn’t ever live eating another way. Everything she is saying is 💯 % true.
This is Drew’s mom. I started on the 16:8 journey 4 months ago. I’ve finally lost the weight I was trying to lose by adjusting my diet anf exercise for… years.
I still work out, as the benefits of working out are too numerous to mention and go Waay beyond weight management….
But thank you!
“What if I told you...” how every TED talk begins.
Jose Guilarte 😂 totally!!
Lol I love this 😂
bahahahahahaha its so true
Should be renamed Morpheus Talks
i thought the exact same thing as soon as she opened with that ... eye roll....
The hardest part is when your family believes in 5 meals a day religion.
😂😂😂 good luck with that
thats a wrap 🤣
Yo
Enjoyyyy
yes im finding this is a big problem
I've been doing it five days now and feel a lot better already. I hope to continue for the rest of my life. I''m sick of losing 50 lb gaining it all back. Best of luck to you all ❤
A tip: eat dates (taste amazing and just one will trigger your body to feeling full) once in the morning or in afternoon/ during the time you don’t eat. Makes it so much easier.
Perfectly said..... Hello, it's a pleasure to meet you. Please excuse my manner. If you find my message abusive, I'd love to be your friend and hope there's nothing wrong with that.
did an ironman a few years ago then went to my overweight doctor who started giving me advice on diet/lifestyle. Good to see this young lady who lives what she preaches. Good for you. keep up the good work.
Stop eating at 8pm and skip breakfast, You are welcome.
Thanks :=D
lol
yes that is my schedule as well with my work as a physical therapist! so mondays to fridays are my fasting days and i lost a lot of visceral fats despite my daily workout and pilates with my clients at least 5 times a day for months!! 2 months of doing fasting i am size 4 finally after years of size 6!!! and now my size for is getting big now.
Kinda hard when by the time you get home from work and gym and shower etc is 9pm
What can we drink
Eating little and no snacking in between meals is how the rest of the world lives naturally. I've never heard of snacking untill I got to the US. Great lecture.
I died a little on the inside when I heard her say that healthcare providers in the US tell people to eat all day long.... Seems pretty established in the rest of the world that eating between meals is bad for you... Your digestive track needs time to process & rest.

I was thinking the same thing. I’m Jamaican we typically eat one meal per day-dinner. If we do have “breakfast” it’s just a cup of tea, maybe a boiled egg, or it’s eaten later in the day around lunch time, and it’s something like callaloo and salt fish (salt water cod and leafy green veggie sautéed in olive oil).
I used to work in an office where I could sit at a computer with a bag of nuts or chips in front of me and snack while working. Now I work using my hands and tools and honestly do not have a chance to stop and snack for hours while busy. I think that in the past people worked more physically with their hands and feet and didn't sit around behind a desk all day which enables people to snack more frequently.
Same here. The obsession with snacking drives me nuts. Especially when it's pushed on my kids.
Y'all ever heard of GERD? Eating between meal isn't bad it's just that people tend to overeat when they eat between meals
Girls, hear me out! I'm 28 and I've been fasting for months. I started with the 16/8, then went for the 18/6, with the 20/4 after 2 months and then with the 23/1. I used to feel great, like I've never felt before BUT I had to STOP intermittent fasting because my cycle completely stopped. I learnt that women should be fasting differently to men. We have a more complicated hormone system. Hair might start falling and fertility issues might come up! PLEASE, pay attention. It is good to fast BUT NOT EVERYDAY, especially during ovulation and pre-mestrual week.
This is why in Islam where fasting is one of the rituals, certain conditions don’t allow men or women to do fasting. This includes women in their menstrual period and the bleeding period after giving birth.
@@orchidemmy6185 this makes completely sense! wish I knew it before! :)
Wow!! How then did your cycle return? Did you have to stop fasting ?
Hi Moon, I'd really like to know more about this. Do you have any specific info I can read/watch, or is it easily Googleablem
Maybe you should stick with a 16/8 or there about?! the 23/1 etc sound extreme. Best to you on your journey 🙏✨
I plateaued on a ketogenic diet and added intermittent fasting usually eating OMAD or during a 20:4 fast. I lost 70 pounds so far dropping from 238 to 168. Cynthia's Ted Talk is consistent with my research and personal experience.
You haven't tried Carnivore now that's a game changer
Fasting is an incredibly powerful health hack that can literally save your life!
yes it can save your miserable life.....
sitting is the most unhealthiest thing anyone can do
best to exercise as soon as you wake up as testosterone levels are at their highest of the day ON TOP of an empty stomach. just gentle walk or light exercise.
So true and wish that we can try to do this to reduce systemic health issues around the world. Our body needs a break and its only our mind is not listening to them and giving them the importance of existing and functioning for us. so they tolerated till they can tolerate it no more...
@@StreetFighterIIFeb Athletic performance is peak in the late afternoon. There's a TED where the Dr talks about the Circadian clock and your bodies levels of energy.
Intermittent fasting is awesome! I've been doing it for over a year and lost over 100 lbs
I’m on the same journey brother. Already lost 50. Did you get a lot of lose skin?
Ok so what do you do when the hunger pangs happen
dee b drink water. Sometimes the body is just thirsty.
dee b it’s all mental. Keep your mind occupied, stay busy. Chewing gum and drinking lots of water helps
@@bluesoamazin7718 I quit smoking 8 yrs ago and I'm still carrying the extra weight. 20lbs. Better start for the new year.....
Happy new year to all
I am 64 years old, male. I have been fasting 20 hours per day for a little over 2 years, with several 44 hour fasts per month. I have lost 65 pounds, stopped blood pressure meds, stopped talking about cholesterol meds due to improved test results. My weight is stable. My feet don’t hurt anymore. I am able to run for exercise again. I have much less inflammation and pain. I am forever in debt to my doctor who has guided me onto this path. It is definitely a lifestyle change for me. Thank you for sharing this.
Very helpful.thanks for sharing
I would love to hear more. Did you start with 16/8 for a few months then moved up to 18/6 then 20/4. Also would love to hear what foods you use to break your fast.
Sounds like you’re in Autophagy quite often! Very nice job!
I fast for 20 hours a day and eat for 4. Except for the hunger I find that I generally feel way better. The biggest benefit I have noticed though is the lack of laziness. I find myself completing projects I normally put off and actively looking for things to do in my downtime. It also helps control my blood sugar so for a prediabetic this is extremely helpful.
What do you eat during those 4?
@@xnsxxnsx I restrict myself to 1700 calories a day. No more then 1/3rd of those calories can come from carbs. And no complex carbs like bread or pasta. And I try to cut out sugar as much as possible. Other then that I give myself free reign to eat what I want. Although I make an effort to eat a variety of food. I do eat keto bread but it's pretty much all fiber with virtually no carbs.
I'm finding the same thing, my productivity is fantastic. Massive improvement in general optimism, cheerfulness, and concentration.
What are examples of what you eat. And, how do you count calories? Thanks.
I started 20:4 yesterday 😁
I used to weigh over 400 pounds. In a little over a year I have been able to to lose over 100 pounds over the last year. I did this by intermittent fasting and switched to a WFPB (Whole Foods Plant-Based) lifestyle. No exercise, no counting calories. I am disabled so I couldn't exercise. But now with the weight loss, I can exercise. Exercise is a necessary key component for me now. I got down below 300 pounds and suddenly my weight loss stalled. So now I do DDP YOGA and use a stationary exercise bike. The adventure continues.
Wow, so glad to hear you shed 100 pounds. - the thing about intermittent fasting is that you can allow yourself the occasional sin. I once did a sloppy Atkins. But it is hard to get into ketosis and easy to fall out, if you cheat one day. All the transition trouble again.
Impressive. I think your determination was the key for your success. It is hard to break an old habit. You did it. Congratulations.
that is awesome!
Look into carnivore, Dr Shawn Baker...
Thats awesome brother! Wish you success and happiness as you press on.
My wife lost 100 lbs and i lost 50 lbs using this technique. She is 41 and I am 44. Give it a try!
Started this about 3 months ago and lost 30lbs. Feeding time is 1 - 9pm and I'm never hungry. That weight loss came with no exercise (though I'm not advocating against it. I'm just lazy).
She sure looks healthy! I love people who walk their talk.
Good observation! She did walk around non-stop (within the circle at that) during her talk.
*I WALK & I TALK!!!!*
She was just hospitalized for 13 days for ruptured appendix, not long after she did this talk she proceeded with appendectomy. How she was able to stand, think and talk was just remarkable. I learned about this in another interview she did
@@mengzi19984 Maybe the human appendix DOES like to eat more than once a day.😜

I am in menopause and IF completely changed my life for the better. I highly recommend it.
Hi Bonnie..I am in menopause too..and trying to start IF..do you mind sharing your IF journey in menopause..thanks..
Love this... we show this video to everybody, so powerful. I have lost 120 lbs, 12 years ago, kept it off, from size 42 to 32, 250 lbs to 130 lbs. So easy it will make you mad!
I agree a 100% It’s shockingly mad - it’s magical- I lost weight I couldn’t lose in the last 19 years, in 2-3 months of IF, with low-carb. It’s crazy how this thing works - and how your hunger just disappears- forever!
What if I told you that maybe every TED TALK starts with "What if I told you"?
Totally! :) funny comment, I noticed the same thing. Drives me nuts. :)
Sort of like in Silicon Valley and Jian Yang: “what if I told you, there’s an app on the market...” lol
That is the only thing that I don't like, it gives me "conspiracy" or "salesman, commercial" (edit) vibes*
.....😁😂😅😳
WHat if I told you = irritating smartass
I lost 125 pounds using intermittent fasting at age 40. You can do it too
Congrats! What did you eat and what time of day were you eating?

i tried intermittent fasting mostly because i want to lose weight, i just want to share my experience with it, its really actually hard to sustain plus i do experience very excruciating headache thats why i stopped it and started agoge diet. i did lose weight without all those bad things and i have never been happier
Your body is adjusting and switching fuel, she did says to give it a solid thirty days.
You were not consistent, it gets better with time. Plus moderating your sugar intake in your feasting window helps minimize headaches
@@momballo tried it for straight 30dys and it isnt just for me sadly
Fasting from sunrise to sunset on Mondays and Thursdays is one of the best things you can do for your over all health, and strength of body, mind, and soul
The sugar industry, soft drink and snack food industry don't like this talk. They gave it a thumbs down.
I agree!!
And the alcohol industry too!
and Supplement Shills disguised as " experts".
And the cereal makers came up with the brilliant dogma that breakfast was the most important meal of the day to sell: more cereal! Of course.
We do 48 and 72 hpur fasts and have lost weight and feel great. We don't get hunger pangs either.
Lol
I'm living proof, I've been on a 8/16 schedule pretty much 6 days a week for around 6 months now. I'm 35yo 5'9 I started out weighting 265lbs. I'm 200lbs today. I'm actually revisiting this video, this was one of the videos that inspired me to do it. So thank you, seriously. Update: jan.9.2022 changed my profile pic so you guys can see the progression. Im hovering around 170 now. Getting leaned out. Thanks again for all the support 🙏 ❤
Good job. Keep going.
@@siemensohm thank you, positive words are definitely motivational so i appreciate it 🙏
That’s terrific Dave, keep it up!
@@dschafer6634 Thank you, and will do, down to 190 now, my goal is to keep going until i get lean enough to see a visible 6 pack. I workout 3 days a week as well so i am still getting muscle gains during my fasting. Ive started to see visible shadows of my abs for a while now, so now that i see they are under there hiding it motivates me to keep going lol, after i get to my goal i will change my diet to a more stable clean eating scedual.
So when should I eat first? If i eat my last meal dinner at 5 or 6 in the evening? I skip break fast get lunch t 12 and then eat dinner at 5 or 6?
i started imf years ago and I'll never look back. Not even for weight loss but i just genuinely feel better on 16:8. I snack way less throughout they day and have more energy. I highly recommend!
Just love how when you start fasting, the brain acts like a 5-year old missing it's insta high of sugar rush, but if you don't give in, the brain basicly goes "yeah, you're right, we don't need it, we do have enough in reserve"
Underrated comment❤
Lost 39 pounds last year fasting. It was effortless. Back on the bandwagon to lose another 30 pounds. Wish me luck !
I just started back again. I fell off after a family reunion and now it's time to get back to it! Good luck!!!!
did you avoid sugars when you were on the 16/8?
that is the problem right there. thinking about this woe as a "bandwagon" it is a way of life

Agreed. Although personally 20 hours is too long for me. I do 16 hours fasting, as it makes me feel more alert in the mornings (brain fog gone).
This is something I do not really agree with.
I also do a 20 hour fast and then a 4 hour window with more or less healthy food!

I’m a dude, and learned a lot. Us dudes can benefit from this sage advice! I’ve gone from 16:8 to OMAD, and feel great!
With 17:7 IF for the last 6 months, my hemoglobin a1c went from 5.9 to 5.2, my fatty liver disease was reversed (liver enzymes were severely elevated but they are well within range now!), and lost about 10% of my weight. I am a woman in mid-30s with PCOS. My weight loss has plateaued so I want to incorporate some changes now by adding one to two days of 24 hour fasting each week, eating healthier lunch, walking more, and doing strength training. IF is not a restrictive diet so it’s more sustainable. Most importantly, the blood test numbers really tell me that I’m doing the right thing for my body.
Grey Well done.

did you also workout or just fasted? and what kinds of food did you eat?
@@siamara1180 The only exercise I did was walking for 30 minutes per day.
Food wise, was more about dropping bread, rice, pasta - below 20 grams of carbs - and just eating meat, cruciferous veg, cheese and other low carb stuff.
Replacing the list above was the big challenge. So I got adventurous and learned how to make Keto-friendly bread and flatbread. That did the trick - it filled me up and I didn't miss the rice and pasta.
Weight loss to date is 88 pounds.

When people have to preach fasting in 21st century when fasting has been there for many centuries, you know how much our society has fallen despite all the technological advancements we made.
So true!
Lol exactly, in religious practices too
You are wrong....noone talked about it until recently...you were programmed the opposite...eat 5 time ...3meal/2 snacks....breakfast is a must.Were you born with this wisdom??
D Greg Many people fast as a part of religious practice for centuries. Fasting has been used by the devout (monks, priests, even the Buddha) to seek clarity of mind. Ramadan, the month where Muslims dry fast, is seen as a way of purifying the body and garnering gratitude for food as nourishment. This wisdom’s been around for a while. The 3 meals a day concept is very much a Western commericialized concept meant to sell you sugar and dairy because we were producing so much of it.
What does that have to do with anything? Slavery and wearing led makeup has been around for many centuries too lol just because something is old doesn't mean it's good.
It really works. I’ve been intermittent fasting for over a year and went from 190 to 168. Combined with a ketogenic diet and moderate exercise (even just walking), the weight will just come right off.
that's exactly where I want to be. how long did it take to lose about 15 lbs for you?
I started in February and am down 64 pounds. Omad..fasting 20 hours and sometimes 23. Still going strong 💪.

And breakfast is the first meal you eat in a day, doesn’t have to be first thing in the morning. Hence the name.

Hi. While cooking for my youngest child who is vegan and doing intermittent fasting, I adopted his schedule. He is 6' and maintains 195 # with workouts on top of a 10 hour work day. I lost 25 lbs, effortlessly, no longer have the annual visit to my cardiologist who was amazed at my health changes (I refused statins) and better BP readings, etc. When I shared what I was doing, he, the cardiologist said, 'oh, I can't do that'. Even with a career and a family, I think it is still doable, maybe more like 14 / 10. I am late 70s and have managed chronic health issues with diet, but allowing the body to function optimally and heal itself as we go with intermittent fasting, is a much better alternative !!! Namaste all
fasting for little over the year. got to my goal weight after 5 months. keeping it that way since. no cravings, full of energy, clarity in head and overall empowering feeling of control! love it, recommend it to everyone i know. it is not diet! it is a lifestyle.
I started on 7th July, 2019 -> 66kg
Today 10th July,2019 -> 64kg
Lost 2kg - no exercise

I will upgrade the result .

@@CatsandAnimals213 you can check out a calorie calculator, where you enter your height and weight, and it will show you how much calories you can take to; loss weight extremely, mildly, or maintain weight.

Intermittent fasting is one of the most amazing things that you can do to your body. I started it two weeks ago after a very long time. I sleep better, l don't think abt food and l feel much more active.
I fast every day from 6 p.m. until 10 am. next day. I eat twice a day between 10 am and 6. It's changed my life completely.

This works. Hard at first but you get used to it. Now I wake up not even hungry. Give it two weeks, you'll see.
Rolando Enriquez how did you feel at first? Did you struggle to stick with it?
@@LindseyDara Yes, very difficult at first. Mostly because I almost forgot I was fasting and out of habit look for food or snacks.
Do you fast every day. I hear you shouldn't. Confused
When I started I only fasted 10 hours a day. I increased my fasting hours until I was comfortable I’m currently fasting for 17 hours a day. But it took 2-3 weeks to work up to that. The first couple of weeks were the hardest. It’s so easy now. I eat from 10-5 and I stay up until 2am 🤷🏽♀️
@@kinseysantos5043 no you can fast everyday. It is not bad for your health because you still get the nutrients etc. in. You only restrict the time, not what you eat.
As a teacher I stumbled upon this process naturally- I was on the go in the morning, didn’t want to feel “weighed down” by food, ate lunch with my students, ate dinner with my family at home- a natural 6 hours on, 18 hours off. It only makes sense- the biological processes that turn food into fuel takes time and enzymes to work, and then need time to recover.
You don’t run your car engine in the driveway overnight, or two hours before you need to leave. Doing nothing and resting the system is so important.
For all you diabetics out there, who've been told by the endo you should not fast and eat 3 times a day; I am a type 1 diabetic for 22 years and the intermittent fasting works so good for me. Don't be afraid to try it out. Just step by step.

Wow!! Congratulations on your progress!! Very inspiring :) keep going man, you can do it :)
I intermitted fasted for about 30 days using 16/8, but also eliminated sugar, processed food, and chemicals (colorings, preservatives, pesticides). My main two meals I pressure cooked were organic turkey & vegetable chili, and wild caught Alaskan salmon/potatoes/carrots. I lost 21 pounds with no exercise.
That's great! I love I.F. ! When I follow it my newly diagnosed (last year) high b.p. stays totally low/normal! Dr. had told me "meds for life". HA! BTW: Fasting/dieting is for weight loss. Exercising is for cardio/strength, not weight loss. An hour on the treadmill will buy you 1 cookie. :)

i wish my daughter could get off drugs.
She had me with " If you were told breakfast is the most important meal of the day that was wrong." I stupidly listen to trainers, friends, colleagues and started eating breakfast every day. I gained 25 pounds in 2 years. I didn't put it together until one day it just hit me that I was automatically reaching for cereal, oatmeal, eggs or whatever in the morning when I was even hungry. Yet actually had become a habit. I was thin most of my life but gained weight in my 40's. Of course I did! My metabolism was slowing down because I was nearing menopause. ("Clark"is a family nickname, I'm a chick, lol) What I should have been doing was exercising more, or exercising the same amount but do some in the morning and summit night to keep my metabolism going. It took me forever to figure out what I've done wrong and make some changes. I mean literally by then I was 50 and really putting on weight in places I never had before period it took a while but I did it. But I would like to tell everybody that if you are not a breakfast person, or never work, don't listen to anybody else! if you're not hungry don't eat!
I am 46yr old woman and have been doing the 16/8 for over a year now. I was never over weight but I have other autoimmune issues.

3 ywar long fever?
6 years ago, I started with IF after 7:00 pm. I lost 68 lbs and gained it back. I’m once again going back to IF, but now using the 16:8 schedule. I fast between 7:00 pm and noon. In a weeks time, I’ve lost 8 lbs! I eat a salad for lunch daily and a healthy dinner. Vegetables fill 1/2 of my plate. Don’t eat a lot of starches. No soda. And I drink 1.50 gallons of water daily.
And another good thing is... in the long run it saves you money for groceries and health care bills
Think about that!
Yesssss!!
@@aquatichighs yh. But you don't have to buy different groceries for different times of the day. For eg: usual 3 meals a day you eat egg and tea in the morning, steak and potato in the afternoon and rice stew and chicken in the evening. And let's say all this added up to 2000 calories. Then with IF/OMAD you ate rice and chicken and stew that you would eat enough of it to have the same 2000 calories.
So basically it saves money. Because you're eating the same amount of calories but one food. So you wouldn't have to buy different groceries for breakfast, lunch and dinner.
with one meal a day my average daily cost of food and drinks is $10 - so could survive on around $300 per month! and this is without coupon shopping...
Herman Helmich very true. I spend a lot less on groceries and I feel physically and mentally better
your tip fits your photo hahaha.
let me tell you our stories. we were born in a remote rural area of Vietnam. Because of lack of food, since I started my primary school, we did not have breakfast. OUr first meal is at noon at about 11:00am. then the second meal was dinner at about 6:00pm, no snacks at between. After dinner, we had to do our homework, used a lot of brain energy. that's our daily routine until I graduated from high school and attended college. I was very thin before college. When in college, my friends advised me to have breakfast everyday to keep me full of energy for whole day long. my weight started increasing, and I couldn't concentrate after having breakfast. Now I watch this and knowing that I practiced intermittent fasting 24 years ago.
Lol yo whole childhood was a intermittented fasting. This made me laugh
@@PlusSIzeFlyGoddess yes. I had been practiced IF for many years without knowing about it. I was tall, slim and better at studying than most of my classmates. Don’t know if that was part of IF’s pros
Im a man who used to have a binge eating problem and intermittent fasting is the only thing that allowed me to stop
This is sooo true about fasting. Have autoimmune problem for more then 30 years, nothing helps my pains more then fasting.
I have an autoimmune disease too and after all my treatment I found this out about IF. if my symptoms ever come back strong I will absolutely do IF very strict.
I stumbled upon IF. After retiring I've been sleeping in till late morning and have breakfast around 11 or 12. Usually coffee and toast with peanut butter. I then eat a normal dinner at a normal time and then I am full and done for the day. I started losing weight (I was pretty overweight) and worried i had cancer or something because I kept losing weight. One day while watching a daytime TV show with a guest nutritionist who was touting IF, I realized that's what I was doing. I had lost 34 pounds and it wasn't cancer! I have been able to keep the weight off during this time of quarantine while everyone else is gaining. It is the easiest "diet" I have ever done. It's not really a diet.
Rebecca Bello Same with me ,been doing this since my twenties , now everyone has picked up weight but me because of this virus and being home .

Brilliant Rebecca, I'm inspired❤️
