Omg the comment section is so ignorant. Intermittent fasting is in no way an eating disorder. It has so many benefits for the body and it doesn't have to be as painful as they made it seem at the start. You can customise the fast period to suit your timetable. For example, stop eating at 5pm and start eating at 9am the next day which won't make you feel super hungry and even if you waited until 1pm to start eating the next day you shouldn't be starving because you're still eating the same amount of food as you would if you weren't fasting but just in a specific time period.
Lara Yes but some of us have jobs that don't catee to this lifestyle. I don't get a break til 1pm at work and theres no way I can wait that long to eat.
You don't have to. What Candace and Michelle fail to mention in this diet, is that you can eat in the morning and start your fast around dinner time, You can choose your fasting window. Just don't eat beyond 8 hours.
Navila Mendes you can eat until you’re full or eat enough to last you for the whole day(for me it’s the equivalent of two meals) or you can google how many macros you need in particular for your weight and size.
For the 16/8 it doesn't matter way time you choose to eat. You could have your eating window for 9am to 5pm and fast for the rest of the night. It's really up to you to decide what eating window you want.
Yeah, I do 16/8 and I eat between 10 and 6. It's really not that big of a deal and feels normal. I eat breakfast slightly later and dinner slightly earlier than I normally would. In the morning I'm not even hungry for a few hours.
Actually, NO! You need to fast when you wake up, not before sleeping... That's how it works not otherwise. That's because of growth hormons... You sleep, which realese growth hormons... You wake up, they still works... When you start eat, boom, they slow down. If you do it upside-down, your body will eat your muscles, not your fat. And it will be a lot harder. Read about IF and then write some comments. I have nightride with bicycle every friday... I started IF and at that first friday I done same as every day, last meal 9pm and that's all... But... It was wrong... I was so starved and tired... Because that ride usually is till 2am... Next time I try eat later, last meal about 23pm... So next day I eat about 3pm... And everything was OK.
People are so over dramatic about intermittent fasting. You basically eat all of your calories in a certain amount of time. It's excellent for losing weight because it will throw you in ketosis while you sleep. It's nothing like starving yourself. There's so many studies about how this is a good and completely safe way to eat. I eat from 11-7, and I'm eating through that entire period. Do you eat while you sleep? Probably not. When you're asleep, you're fasting. This is the same thing.
I think you're trying to describe the Keto way of eating. You have to drastically cut carbohydrates to go into ketosis. Can't do it by just intermittent fasting.
I've been doing IF for 3 days now and I think it's great. I find that I have so much more energy now when I break the fast. After the first two days my cravings for certain foods have gone down and I've been sleeping better. I think the trick for me to not feel hungry during the fast is to drink plenty of water. I'm trying to drink a gallon a day.
I think it's funny how saying that you've slept like a baby implies that babies sleep well even though they often wake up in the middle of the night and cry
So just something I learned from fasting (I'm muslim so we also do a similar amount of time for fasting) I used to immediately binge whenever I could eat, which is culturally normal for many households during Ramadan. But what tends to occur for many Muslims is they actually /gain/ weight during Ramadan, due to an increased intake of calories for supposed energy AND an amount of lethargy during the day that causes them not to do physical activities. So what I would do now is have a small something to eat after I break my fast. maybe a granola bar, a piece of fruit, or maybe something to drink. Point is something that isn't filling. Get back to doing something you're interested in for like thirty minutes, and then have a full meal. you'll find that when you're not starving you eat slower and get full more quickly instead of binge in a way that'll leave you in a food coma. I then tend to have a small little snack intermittently though my non-fasting time, and I find that I still have a lot of energy during the day and never feel super stuffed, just satisfied.
I didn't think I could, but I had a job where I didn't have my break around the time I broke my fast, so I would just quickly have a glass of water and a literal bite of something, and then get straight back to work. When my shift was over, I realized I wasn't dying to eat, just moderately hungry.
mhm !! i really wanted to lose weight this past Ramadan so i made sure to break my fast with like a large glass of water (& sometimes a date) then pray Maghrib and have like a portion of fruit or smthn for iftaar and then just wait til suhoor to eat again. it worked so well too lolol
If you do that you don’t really get the fasting benefits because that 8 hours is when you are sleeping so really your just eating 3 meals like a traditional person would.
I've been intermittent fasting for 3 months now and I love it! I'm the beginning yes it was hard but if I got hungry before my eating time I would drink water and that helped tremendously. I've lost about 15 pounds in 3 months and about 2 or 3 inches from my waist, and tummy area
it's me duhh Clean eating is always going to improve your chance of success. I eat clean probably 90% of the time, however I didn't beat myself up for cheating and found I still consistently lost weight.
people need to understand that you will never see any results by eating junk food.. eating healthy is just normal food, you dont have to eat salad every day for it to be healthy. Just eat veggies and fruits and you'll be fine.
16/8 is easy i don't get it. You can have dinner at 7pm, stop at 8pm and just eat again at noon the next day. 8 pm to noon is 16 hours. You basically just skip breakfast i don't see how that's hard
When I did my research I found that when you do this and workout in the morning you should fix your eating window so you can eat right after working out. You shouldn't wait 2-3 hours after working out.
I practice this type of eating (11am-7pm is my eating period) and it's the best thing I've ever done for my body! I usually work out in the morning so I don't get distracted or tempted to eat, and now my body doesn't feel hungry until that time. It's also made me much more aware of my meals, and I put more effort into planning them, since I feel I have to make the most of the little time I DO have to eat. It may sound weird but planning when to eat makes you a lot more conscious of it. Stick with whole foods and you're good to go :) Recommended eating times if you start at 11: 11am (breakfast), 2pm (lunch), 4pm (snack), 6-6:30pm (dinner), then have fruit or tea, then nothing until bedtime.
Candace Lowry Michelle Khare I was really hoping to see what you eat and how much you eat during those 8 hours as well :/ I always binge eating at a buffet so I thought this might be the best diet for me ? But I wanna know how much I have to eat to still not gain weight or even lose weight :)
I only eat from 2 to 6. Been doing it since late May. Love it. My life doesn't revolve around food anymore! Your body definitely adjusts and it isn't a big deal at all.
Lost 20 lbs from late May to late July and have maintained...it's the best decision I've ever made. When I was dieting I'd always gain it back due to feel restricted and shitty.
AllForFunTV I was 164 in May. And I weighed myself today and am 139. So lbs. still creep off. I feel mild hunger at night mostly. When I'm most idle or if I adjust eating to suit an event- for example I went to a kids bday party yesterday so ate 12:30 to 4:30 instead of the typical 2-6 range. Last night my hunger was getting a little strong but I'll drink water, take vitamins, and get over it :p Honestly thinking how I'm privileged enough to eat whenever I want when many can't helps me get over random hunger. But in general I have adjusted!! :) I still do I.F. but since it's been successful I have had more "normal" eating habit days where I'm not as on it. In general I love the eating pattern though and don't know when I will return to the typical 3 meals a day spaced out. I eat the proper amount of calories and feel satisfied during my 2 meals a day so for now no rush to stop since like Candace says in the vid it's so nice to wake up not bloated and feeling just really...healthy!
There was this one time when I was a kid where we were going on a road trip and my father gave us each a bag full of marshmallows maybe 30ish big ones in each bag so I ate 5 then I was full then on the way my dad saw a crowd of homeless and stopped to give them some money, I saw what I thought was a garbage can next to them so I threw the rest of my marshmallows in there, then one of the men took it out smiled and said thank you, I just said no problem but I was kind of confused, when I looked back at the garbage can I realized it was full of clothes That’s when I realized that while we’re whining about not having any cloths when we have a full walk in closet there are some people that have a plastic garbage can as their closet While we throw away food there are people starving Just always be thankful for what you have because some people see your tiny house as a mansion

Are you kidding? I just started intermittent fasting today after a load of research and NOW my two favourite you tubers come together and give it a go and do a video on it. Yeaaaaaaah
I think it is cool you guys did that, I bet if you did this for an entire month you wouldn't even feel hungry when you eat. When it is Ramadan, a lot of people sleep during the short eating window so we have no chance of eating throughout the rest of our regular work days and by the end of the month it becomes so natural that once it is over we have to constantly remind ourselves for the next few days that we can eat
Yes dude! I did it for two months, about 6 months ago and I stopped being hungry after the third week. It really wasn’t difficult to adjust after a while!
Yes.. That totally true 👌when I eat breakfast after Ramadan.. I feel really weird... The problem is in *ftour* we are used to find the table full of different meals with a huge amount of carbs and saturated fat.. And it s really hard to resist it hhhh... missing Ramadan ❤️❤️❤️
I'm doing it for 8 months now. It gets easier and you learn what you need to eat and when you need to eat. I lost 40 pounds, eating whatever I want. It's been great and I love it
Why would you pick a time frame that doesn't work with your lifestyle?? If you workout in the morning plan your 8 hours to start after your workout? A fastest workout has already been shown to help burn fat, but eating after a workout is important. We all know this by now. The point of IF is to pick an 8 hour window that works with your lifestyle. If you pick a random time because 12-8 sounds good without taking into account your workout happens and work schedule you're gonna have a bad time.
i think in a week they wouldnt be able to show those, but at least measure your belly before and after to let us know if it really helps with bloating!
Jeanie C. It is when your body is used to it. You can train your body easily after like 2 weeks to adapt to an eating schedule. My eating schedule changes so regularly. Some days i don't eat until 3 and sometimes I'm starving at 10
@@snow-ev2ix you are so wrong. It's easy to go hours without food but they just whining without reason because they are used to eat unhealthy.. also athletic also bodybuildiers use intermittent fasting, it's a good way to burn fat and keep your muscle mass, I've tried it and it worked good
@@AsAs-kk1vx Bodybuilders do not use it unless they are specially trying to get smaller. Not a very common thing when the whole sport is about getting big. And I know if you speak of boxers/mma fighters, they use some pretty damn unhealthy shit to get to the acceptable weight. Still: if your muscle doesn't have fuel, it will disappear. This is why there are special slow-effect protein supplements for bodybuilders to use before they sleep to prevent catabolism.
There's an article on the daily mail about a girl who did this for 20 days and she lost 15 pounds.......Apparently your supposed to do it for 45 days and give yourself enemas lol but 15 pounds to me is fucking awesome and the fact that her acne cleared up while doing it. But she had lemon water during the process.
Muslims do this for a month , it depends on where you are in the world the fast ranges from 12 to 20 hours depending on times sunrises . We also fast water, fun fact women don't fast during their periods
Thanks I’m a new subject, new to keto and IF! My goal is to go from 170 to 130. I did it before by eating clean and working out 3 times a day. Now I am trying something new since I’m older. I wish everyone luck💪🏾
I love Candis purple hair it is such an amazing color blend on her with the ombre to the roots. I seriously wish I had a color blend ever work that well for me , dang.
@@alexdalton4535 ummmmm they literally tell you that in middle school biology 🤦 So if you're unaware of how your body works I suggest contacting a teacher or googling it..
@@snow-ev2ix so no, I guess you don't have a source to back up what you're saying? Because there's been numerous studies which show the benefits of intermittent fasting and show that no, your muscle will not suddenly "eat itself" (what a professional term by the way) if not fed 24/7. I've never heard anything more stupid in my life.
As a person who hates breakfast and never wants to eat in the morning 16-8 is completely not a problem. But physically I feel at my best when I'm on a ninja diet, which is 20-4. Just one big meal a day, maybe a snack later or casein before sleep. Lean body, lots of energy and mental balance! (Though, I recognize that it's not for everyone)
Also, I'd like to add that I've tried eating small portions every 2-3 hours. It made me gain weight, feel tired and bloated and hate food (which is definitely not healthy). Everyones body is different. You should find what works for you.
Throwback to watching this in the middle of my eating disorder, deciding to follow it and nearly collapsing at 11am at school. A lot of people saying this is easy or “effective” for losing a large amount of weight in the comments. Although this may be true and healthy for some, videos like this and the general glorification of dieting are toxic without warnings- especially for teenagers going through eating difficulties. Nearly 2 million views- saddens me to think how many people these types of videos have harmed.
I have only just started IF 3 days ago. I am doing 18/6 and find that is working well for me at the moment. I can easily make it to 2pm when my eating wondow starts without feeling too hungry. Though i have already been counting calories for the last 4 years and lost 25kgs from that. Hoping IF will help my snacking habits so I don't gain it all back.
IF you want to get sufficient nutrients and calories in, aren't you just eating non-stop for those 4 hours if you want to get everything your body needs?
ive been intermittent fasting for about 3 months. despite being skeptical at first and pessimistic because the first week is a miserable adjustment, i can say its helped my metabolism, i got leaner/fitter when accompanied with working out regularly, my sleep improved, and i higher levels of energy. i definitely reccomend trying it for a month to see if you notice positive results like i did.
I LOVE IF. I can say after a few weeks/month you adjust and don't feel as hungry in the morning. I eat between 12-8 and have never felt better. I did last year and got off track after going on a cruise and could tell a huge difference. I felt tired, sluggish, joints ached, gained weight. Got back on IF and the weight came off, energy went up, pain went away. It may not work for everyone because we're all different but it works great for me.
You'll also get used it. There are different ways to fast. I only do the 16:8 and OMAD. I only eat at 4PM and stop when I feel full but can't pass the 8hr timing; basically I only eat one meal during in within that 8hr window. Usually I used to be a person who would still eat when I'm full and binge eat but it's not that hard to control it once you really put your mind into doing something. When I'm training, I drink lots of water time to time which helps the hunger in the remaining time before I could eat. It helps digest too. Don't think about eating when you're actually not hungry.
Ahhh I love your content, but can you guys try the kpop diet... it's just very interesting to watch and I would love to see your reaction as to what some extents celebrities put themselves through , again love your channel xx
I just moved to Morocco ( a Muslim country) and tried to fast during Ramadan. It actually got really easy after a while, and breaking a fast with a family made me feel very connected with everyone. The hardest part is fasting when you're hanging out at home. The best way to do it is around people and staying busy.
Actually you can have breakfast! You choose which hours you are eating. It's all about balancing your life and eating because most people eat very frequently and snack a ton through the day but with intermittent fasting it helps you learn to eat only when you're hungry and not when you're bored. It also helps with losing weight because with your eating window being smaller, you are more likely to be in a calorie deficit (=
Isabella♥ You skip breakfast, but you have an eight hour window during the rest of the day to eat your caloric maintenance. I usually don't eat breakfast or lunch and eat around 4 or 5. I give myself a very short 4 hour window eating 2,500 calories.
I am a muslim and in my country we fast nearly 12-14 hours a day for a month and the point is feeling what the homeless feel and i love ramadan cuz it brings my family together and it gives me the clearest skin of my life , the best mood and the best sleep p.s good job on these vids michelle i love ur channel 💕💕
I'm on a 16:8 intermittent fast keto diet and love it! I feel great, never have cravings anymore and I stick to my macros (using an app helps me a lot). I also workout on a fasted stomach then wait to eat for a couple hours after my workout. Your body adjusts. Honestly, I really love it.
Intermittent fasting is NOT skipping breakfast! You add those calories to the rest of your meals! Plus it's very difficult to just go from having breakfast at 8am to breakfasting at 13pm! You move your breakfast GRADUALLY later in the morning.
wooooow guys i started my intermitt fasting today please wish me luck i drink water all through i have a one hour window witch is at 1pm but before my work out i have a cup of coffee just for energy its really tough i wont lie but i will manage good luck to the honnies that are also trying to loose weight and staying lean im watching this from South Africa love u guys God bless
If you've ever had to skip breakfast (or any other meal) in your lifetime, congrats! That probably means you've already survived a day of IF. LOL Before I started IF I thought it was super weird at first, but now it's no big deal. The biggest hurdle most people face is the "hunger" but it's really not that terrible. Also, hunger during IF is NOT true hunger, it comes in waves and will disappear most of the time.
For all clarity for someone wanting to try this, Intermittent fasting isn't a diet to rush into, what you do instead is to slowly decrease your windows of eating so eg 9am-10pm to 10am-10pm and from there lower the time by an hour or 30 mins depending on how your body is processing it. If you are hungry then you eat, listening to your body comes first
also during ramadan you starve during the day lol but with intermittent fasting the hours you're asleep and not eating count as fasting. so the only common thing between ramadan and IF is actual fasting lol
I intermittent fast everyday except the weekends sometimes when I'm with my friends. It's so much easier for me to not think about always cooking meals and I seem to get more nutrients this way.
If you love breakfast, you can do the same 16/8 split, with the same benefits but just having dinner super early. That's what I do, I have breakfast when I wake up and have dinner a lot earlier, and I love it.
"I found I was eating the same amount of calories but in a shorter time period." .....yes. yes, that is the point of intermittent fasting. Let's get something straight, IF is not a restriction, it is simply a different eating pattern. also STOP BEING SO DRAMATIC, you didn't get to eat for a few hours after getting up omfg I've been doing this for months it's really not a big deal.
I do 20:4 fasting! I eat only from 3-7, and plan on doing this for the rest of my life. I’ve been doing it for 2 weeks so far and an excited to see results!
This is amazing! I love how you actually showed what you were doing. Many people are visuals so in order to understand, I tend to like to see people's reactions which helps me figure out if I should waste my time or not. Thank you!!!! Loving IF.. I lost 2 pounds in just ONE DAY...
I've been doing IF for 3 months and it's helped me lose 15lbs at a healthy rate without feeling like I'm starving. You can get away with cheating on this diet pretty regularly without halting your progress as long as you eat clean and healthy the majority of your days. Also one big meal when you've been fasting for 16 hours gives you something to look forward to everyday.
I have been doing IF for 3 months now. It is one of the best decisions i've ever made. My waist size has gone down and my sleeping patterns have improved.
@@peppermintpatty180 I know fasting isn't unhealthy. But eating only once every day is unhealthy. That's not fasting, that's an eating disorder. Your body needs fuel, and only once every 24 hours every single day is definitely unhealthy. That's something that you can do once or twice a week, but definitely not more.
@@FreakieFan most people on OMAD only have a calorie deficit of 500 calories a day. Intermittent fasting legit helps in so many ways. I'd agree with you if there was hard study done on damage done by intermittent fasting but there just isn't. If the person fasting is purposely under eating till the point of anorexia then yeah I can see how that for sure is an eating disorder but the average Joe usually hops into IF for health benefits more than just huge weight loss
A few years ago I lost about 40 lbs. doing intermittent fasting. Except it was called being poor and being in college.
Truth...I gained it all back though lol. Poverty and hunger suck.
Lmfaoooooo
Yes!! sometimes having sleep for lunch lol

Sakuems it’s hard for some people who eat breakfast normally and eat straight when they wake up
It’s not hard.
It is when you have a big appetite lol
it is for strong people.. Muscle needs fuel.
Because you just can have water or coffee..... it is tough for people who are use to eat all 3 meals. No snack stricrly
I do this everyday. Bcause i wake up at 12 lol
mood
lol same i always eat breakfast at 11.30 or like later. and i stop eating at night at 7pm lols
Sameee lol
I wake up at 8 on weekends, and 5 am bc i have school
Me too
When I did my research I found that when you do this and workout in the morning you should fix your eating window so you can eat right after working out. You shouldn't wait 2-3 hours after working out.
Rilary Farias yes
Rilary Farias yep and the best way to do that is to not eat after 7pm. Breakfast at 9am, lunch at noon, snack at 3pm and dinner by 5:30pm. Easy peasy!
JustSimpleJenny exactly
Jennifer Yeah but you should be carefull because you know, katabolism
I find it best to exercise at night if you're eating 12-8pm
Been doing IF for the last 3 years. We're just conditioned to believe we need 3 meals. Eat when actually hungry.
Some of the music in this is a little over powering of your voices
XxEliteEquestrianxX especially at the 5 minute mark
jordynmusi I didn’t notice it until you said it. Now I hate you.
I practice this type of eating (11am-7pm is my eating period) and it's the best thing I've ever done for my body! I usually work out in the morning so I don't get distracted or tempted to eat, and now my body doesn't feel hungry until that time. It's also made me much more aware of my meals, and I put more effort into planning them, since I feel I have to make the most of the little time I DO have to eat. It may sound weird but planning when to eat makes you a lot more conscious of it. Stick with whole foods and you're good to go :) Recommended eating times if you start at 11: 11am (breakfast), 2pm (lunch), 4pm (snack), 6-6:30pm (dinner), then have fruit or tea, then nothing until bedtime.
This was actually really cool to try and learn about! :D Thanks for having me Michellleeeeeee
Candace Lowry can u guys do a water fast
Candace Lowry Michelle Khare I was really hoping to see what you eat and how much you eat during those 8 hours as well :/ I always binge eating at a buffet so I thought this might be the best diet for me ? But I wanna know how much I have to eat to still not gain weight or even lose weight :)
Where did you get that shirt at the end ??? I'm from the Bay Area and i NEED that shirt😍
+Candace Lowry I have spent weeks investigating biblical detox books and found a great website at Monas Miracle Fix (check it out on google)
I only eat from 2 to 6. Been doing it since late May. Love it. My life doesn't revolve around food anymore! Your body definitely adjusts and it isn't a big deal at all.
Kirsten Fell Did you lose weight and have maintained it?
Lost 20 lbs from late May to late July and have maintained...it's the best decision I've ever made. When I was dieting I'd always gain it back due to feel restricted and shitty.
Kirsten Fell That's insane! Aren't you eating waaay to little tho,aren't you hungry,or did your body adjust?
Btw what was your starting weight?
have you tried eating normally again? with breakfast, lunch and dinner?
AllForFunTV I was 164 in May. And I weighed myself today and am 139. So lbs. still creep off.
I feel mild hunger at night mostly. When I'm most idle or if I adjust eating to suit an event- for example I went to a kids bday party yesterday so ate 12:30 to 4:30 instead of the typical 2-6 range. Last night my hunger was getting a little strong but I'll drink water, take vitamins, and get over it :p Honestly thinking how I'm privileged enough to eat whenever I want when many can't helps me get over random hunger. But in general I have adjusted!! :)
I still do I.F. but since it's been successful I have had more "normal" eating habit days where I'm not as on it. In general I love the eating pattern though and don't know when I will return to the typical 3 meals a day spaced out.
I eat the proper amount of calories and feel satisfied during my 2 meals a day so for now no rush to stop since like Candace says in the vid it's so nice to wake up not bloated and feeling just really...healthy!
There was this one time when I was a kid where we were going on a road trip and my father gave us each a bag full of marshmallows maybe 30ish big ones in each bag so I ate 5 then I was full then on the way my dad saw a crowd of homeless and stopped to give them some money, I saw what I thought was a garbage can next to them so I threw the rest of my marshmallows in there, then one of the men took it out smiled and said thank you, I just said no problem but I was kind of confused, when I looked back at the garbage can I realized it was full of clothes
That’s when I realized that while we’re whining about not having any cloths when we have a full walk in closet there are some people that have a plastic garbage can as their closet
While we throw away food there are people starving
Just always be thankful for what you have because some people see your tiny house as a mansion
its Me ummm
that's beautiful
But why did you throw away 25 marshmellows? You could have kept them for another day.
Very well said, always count your blessings

Camila Gisselle welcome to the internet
Are you kidding? I just started intermittent fasting today after a load of research and NOW my two favourite you tubers come together and give it a go and do a video on it. Yeaaaaaaah
Did it work?
Grace Wellik It did for me. 😊
I think it is cool you guys did that, I bet if you did this for an entire month you wouldn't even feel hungry when you eat. When it is Ramadan, a lot of people sleep during the short eating window so we have no chance of eating throughout the rest of our regular work days and by the end of the month it becomes so natural that once it is over we have to constantly remind ourselves for the next few days that we can eat
so true
Yes dude! I did it for two months, about 6 months ago and I stopped being hungry after the third week. It really wasn’t difficult to adjust after a while!
Yes.. That totally true 👌when I eat breakfast after Ramadan.. I feel really weird... The problem is in *ftour* we are used to find the table full of different meals with a huge amount of carbs and saturated fat.. And it s really hard to resist it hhhh... missing Ramadan ❤️❤️❤️
True
I'm doing it for 8 months now. It gets easier and you learn what you need to eat and when you need to eat. I lost 40 pounds, eating whatever I want. It's been great and I love it
This diet is literally me during the school year.
Why would you pick a time frame that doesn't work with your lifestyle?? If you workout in the morning plan your 8 hours to start after your workout? A fastest workout has already been shown to help burn fat, but eating after a workout is important. We all know this by now. The point of IF is to pick an 8 hour window that works with your lifestyle. If you pick a random time because 12-8 sounds good without taking into account your workout happens and work schedule you're gonna have a bad time.
Love this video! But I would of loved to have seen quantitative results of before and after the fast.. Like weight, muscle mass percentage, etc.
Lynn M THANK. YOU !!!
what you feel is so interdépendant ! WE WANT NUMBER !
Muscle mass percentage, yes
They did it for a week, there’s not much result to be gained in a week. No significant result anyway...
i think in a week they wouldnt be able to show those, but at least measure your belly before and after to let us know if it really helps with bloating!
There is not even a difference between the before after photos.
Happy Monday friends!!! This was the hardest diet video yet!! Where's the notification squad at?! :)
Michelle Khare Notification Squad! I love your videos!
Michelle Khare haven't even watched the whole thing yet but i already know it will be amazing! 😊
Michelle Khare will you ever come to the Midwest area (around Omaha Nebraska) anytime? I would really like to meet you!
Here I am
Would the fasting include water?
There’s hardly any information in this video. Just a lot of whining. It’s not really that hard to skip breakfast...
Jeanie C. It is when your body is used to it. You can train your body easily after like 2 weeks to adapt to an eating schedule. My eating schedule changes so regularly. Some days i don't eat until 3 and sometimes I'm starving at 10
it is when you are active person. For a person who works idle job and never works out, that should be easy. For sporty people, no. Muscle needs fuel.
@@snow-ev2ix you are so wrong. It's easy to go hours without food but they just whining without reason because they are used to eat unhealthy.. also athletic also bodybuildiers use intermittent fasting, it's a good way to burn fat and keep your muscle mass, I've tried it and it worked good
@@AsAs-kk1vx Bodybuilders do not use it unless they are specially trying to get smaller. Not a very common thing when the whole sport is about getting big.
And I know if you speak of boxers/mma fighters, they use some pretty damn unhealthy shit to get to the acceptable weight.
Still: if your muscle doesn't have fuel, it will disappear. This is why there are special slow-effect protein supplements for bodybuilders to use before they sleep to prevent catabolism.
Muslims do this all the time. Try fasting water as well for the same period of time.
But water like eating air that goes away in like an hour xD
Only muslims do this in wrong time of day!
There's an article on the daily mail about a girl who did this for 20 days and she lost 15 pounds.......Apparently your supposed to do it for 45 days and give yourself enemas lol but 15 pounds to me is fucking awesome and the fact that her acne cleared up while doing it. But she had lemon water during the process.
Oh superior much? There's no point to that kind of fasting, kind of actually bad for you tbh
Nye Armstrong most religions and cultures do it.
I love intermittent fasting. So far I've lost 35 pounds doing it
in the summer, i usually wake up @ 11 and stay in my room till 12 then i eat and im fine tbh
jamie armyy
Been doing intermittent fasting since 3 years ago i've lost 22kg so far, every morning i feel more energy
Muslims do this for a month , it depends on where you are in the world the fast ranges from 12 to 20 hours depending on times sunrises . We also fast water, fun fact women don't fast during their periods
Thanks I’m a new subject, new to keto and IF! My goal is to go from 170 to 130. I did it before by eating clean and working out 3 times a day. Now I am trying something new since I’m older. I wish everyone luck💪🏾
Can we take a moment for Michelle eyebrows they are so beautiful

I will literally never understand people who are like "I HAVE to eat AS SOON as I wake up" like ????
GreenBean some people have to because of blood sugar.
um you just fasted 8+ hours so um how could you not be hungry? Muscle needs fuel 24/7, if it doesn't receive it, it will eat itself.
@@snow-ev2ix What's your source on that?
@@alexdalton4535 ummmmm they literally tell you that in middle school biology 🤦
So if you're unaware of how your body works I suggest contacting a teacher or googling it..
@@snow-ev2ix so no, I guess you don't have a source to back up what you're saying? Because there's been numerous studies which show the benefits of intermittent fasting and show that no, your muscle will not suddenly "eat itself" (what a professional term by the way) if not fed 24/7. I've never heard anything more stupid in my life.
As a person who hates breakfast and never wants to eat in the morning 16-8 is completely not a problem. But physically I feel at my best when I'm on a ninja diet, which is 20-4. Just one big meal a day, maybe a snack later or casein before sleep. Lean body, lots of energy and mental balance! (Though, I recognize that it's not for everyone)
Also, I'd like to add that I've tried eating small portions every 2-3 hours. It made me gain weight, feel tired and bloated and hate food (which is definitely not healthy). Everyones body is different. You should find what works for you.
I’ve been doing this for a month, and honestly, I cannot see myself going back to my old habits. Love everything about intermittent fasting.
I'm a Muslim so at Ramadan I fast for a month and I really enjoyed seeing this video and I feel your pain :)
Fatema Begum Zaman tbh they feel nothing that we are feeling
Throwback to watching this in the middle of my eating disorder, deciding to follow it and nearly collapsing at 11am at school. A lot of people saying this is easy or “effective” for losing a large amount of weight in the comments. Although this may be true and healthy for some, videos like this and the general glorification of dieting are toxic without warnings- especially for teenagers going through eating difficulties. Nearly 2 million views- saddens me to think how many people these types of videos have harmed.
16x8 is not hard. Make 20x4 and it's perfect.that's what I do.I lost 12 kilos in 45 days
I have only just started IF 3 days ago. I am doing 18/6 and find that is working well for me at the moment. I can easily make it to 2pm when my eating wondow starts without feeling too hungry. Though i have already been counting calories for the last 4 years and lost 25kgs from that. Hoping IF will help my snacking habits so I don't gain it all back.
IF you want to get sufficient nutrients and calories in, aren't you just eating non-stop for those 4 hours if you want to get everything your body needs?
I'm Muslim and I fast during Ramadan and it makes me feel so good and healthy:)
Haha this is how I eat everyday because I'm poor and busy
I absolutely love what Michelle was saying at the end! So crazy how for granted we take things that are hard for others to obtain.
Basically Ramadan but we had 6 hours to eat this year (UK)
Sameone fuck off
Filthy: Sameone
Sameone go back to your satanic rituals sheeple

I just realised I basically don't eat till lunch time everyday just because I'm not hungry.
Olivia Pierce dude I don’t eat until dinner because I’m in college 😭😭
michelle your eyebrows look so good!
angry hungry yes i'm hangry
Yi Nga Yu i thought of that too sigh
Yi Nga Yu oh my god I'm screaming
ive been intermittent fasting for about 3 months. despite being skeptical at first and pessimistic because the first week is a miserable adjustment, i can say its helped my metabolism, i got leaner/fitter when accompanied with working out regularly, my sleep improved, and i higher levels of energy. i definitely reccomend trying it for a month to see if you notice positive results like i did.
FYI: i use the 16/8 method
you reminded me of me in ramadan LMAO
we do this for a month lmao
Sameone can you like, open the door and give yourself the boot? Write your opinions where nobody can see them
Meera I love Ramadan but I hate it at the same time, I call my self blessed when it is that time of the month 😂😂😂
I LOVE IF. I can say after a few weeks/month you adjust and don't feel as hungry in the morning. I eat between 12-8 and have never felt better. I did last year and got off track after going on a cruise and could tell a huge difference. I felt tired, sluggish, joints ached, gained weight. Got back on IF and the weight came off, energy went up, pain went away. It may not work for everyone because we're all different but it works great for me.
I do that most days without realizing it, I never eat breakfast😂
You'll also get used it. There are different ways to fast. I only do the 16:8 and OMAD. I only eat at 4PM and stop when I feel full but can't pass the 8hr timing; basically I only eat one meal during in within that 8hr window. Usually I used to be a person who would still eat when I'm full and binge eat but it's not that hard to control it once you really put your mind into doing something. When I'm training, I drink lots of water time to time which helps the hunger in the remaining time before I could eat. It helps digest too. Don't think about eating when you're actually not hungry.
Ahhh I love your content, but can you guys try the kpop diet... it's just very interesting to watch and I would love to see your reaction as to what some extents celebrities put themselves through , again love your channel xx
I see a huge difference in Michelle’s back before and after! They both look more toned towards the end!
You don't have to wait till noon. Start eating at 8:00 ya goofballs.
I just moved to Morocco ( a Muslim country) and tried to fast during Ramadan. It actually got really easy after a while, and breaking a fast with a family made me feel very connected with everyone. The hardest part is fasting when you're hanging out at home. The best way to do it is around people and staying busy.
So the new name for skipping breakfast is "intermittent" fasting? hmmm😂
😂😂
Actually you can have breakfast! You choose which hours you are eating. It's all about balancing your life and eating because most people eat very frequently and snack a ton through the day but with intermittent fasting it helps you learn to eat only when you're hungry and not when you're bored. It also helps with losing weight because with your eating window being smaller, you are more likely to be in a calorie deficit (=
Why is it called breakfast? Break the fast. Also, you can't have snacks after your eating window. The most obvious thing people fail at.
Isabella♥ Its not actually skipping anything. It's waiting till later to eat your DAY worth of food. You're not eliminating any meals.
Isabella♥ You skip breakfast, but you have an eight hour window during the rest of the day to eat your caloric maintenance. I usually don't eat breakfast or lunch and eat around 4 or 5. I give myself a very short 4 hour window eating 2,500 calories.
I am a muslim and in my country we fast nearly 12-14 hours a day for a month and the point is feeling what the homeless feel and i love ramadan cuz it brings my family together and it gives me the clearest skin of my life , the best mood and the best sleep p.s good job on these vids michelle i love ur channel 💕💕
It is not that hard....they r exaggerating
I'm on a 16:8 intermittent fast keto diet and love it! I feel great, never have cravings anymore and I stick to my macros (using an app helps me a lot). I also workout on a fasted stomach then wait to eat for a couple hours after my workout. Your body adjusts. Honestly, I really love it.
I'm early so let me make a joke
Diets.
This isn't diet. It's eating pattern.
Aija Āriņa she didn't say it was
we are all on a diet. I think what you mean is fad diets because yes those are definitely a joke.
akow yeah that's what I mean🙂
Thanks for clearing it up 🙃
akow kb
@Michelle, your eyebrows look especially on point in this video. Get it gurl.
Intermittent fasting is NOT skipping breakfast! You add those calories to the rest of your meals! Plus it's very difficult to just go from having breakfast at 8am to breakfasting at 13pm! You move your breakfast GRADUALLY later in the morning.
wooooow guys i started my intermitt fasting today please wish me luck i drink water all through i have a one hour window witch is at 1pm but before my work out i have a cup of coffee just for energy its really tough i wont lie but i will manage good luck to the honnies that are also trying to loose weight and staying lean im watching this from South Africa love u guys God bless
If you've ever had to skip breakfast (or any other meal) in your lifetime, congrats! That probably means you've already survived a day of IF. LOL Before I started IF I thought it was super weird at first, but now it's no big deal. The biggest hurdle most people face is the "hunger" but it's really not that terrible. Also, hunger during IF is NOT true hunger, it comes in waves and will disappear most of the time.
I love your collabs!! ❤️
Who else is watching this while eating pizza
For all clarity for someone wanting to try this, Intermittent fasting isn't a diet to rush into, what you do instead is to slowly decrease your windows of eating so eg 9am-10pm to 10am-10pm and from there lower the time by an hour or 30 mins depending on how your body is processing it. If you are hungry then you eat, listening to your body comes first
I sleep 16 hour a day... imma gonna be fine 😂
MICHELLE I HAVE SUCH A HUGE RESPECT FOR YOU. I SAW YOUR MARATHON VIDEO.
Isint intermittent fasting is what Ramadan fasting is
Sanaa Abed the difference is you can't consume water during ramadan
also during ramadan you starve during the day lol but with intermittent fasting the hours you're asleep and not eating count as fasting. so the only common thing between ramadan and IF is actual fasting lol
Idk why but I love these types of "body" videos, PLEASE MAKE MORE!!
I intermittent fast everyday except the weekends sometimes when I'm with my friends. It's so much easier for me to not think about always cooking meals and I seem to get more nutrients this way.
If you love breakfast, you can do the same 16/8 split, with the same benefits but just having dinner super early. That's what I do, I have breakfast when I wake up and have dinner a lot earlier, and I love it.
EARLY SQUAD, WHERE YOU AT?!?
xoxo
I liked watching this, it give a window into many people's lives. Thanks! I love your videos by the way! You're awesome and an amazing person.
"I found I was eating the same amount of calories but in a shorter time period."
.....yes. yes, that is the point of intermittent fasting. Let's get something straight, IF is not a restriction, it is simply a different eating pattern. also STOP BEING SO DRAMATIC, you didn't get to eat for a few hours after getting up omfg I've been doing this for months it's really not a big deal.
I do 20:4 fasting! I eat only from 3-7, and plan on doing this for the rest of my life. I’ve been doing it for 2 weeks so far and an excited to see results!
So it was basically just skipping breakfasts?
Definitely starting to enjoy this channel. Good Job!
* eats while watching *
This is amazing! I love how you actually showed what you were doing. Many people are visuals so in order to understand, I tend to like to see people's reactions which helps me figure out if I should waste my time or not. Thank you!!!! Loving IF.. I lost 2 pounds in just ONE DAY...
i’ve been doing this for 5 days plus an hour on walking everyday and i’ve already lost 3 pounds
I’ve been rocking IF in sine way for about seven years now, absolutely love it!
Thats just Ramadan time for us man
I've been doing IF for 3 months and it's helped me lose 15lbs at a healthy rate without feeling like I'm starving. You can get away with cheating on this diet pretty regularly without halting your progress as long as you eat clean and healthy the majority of your days. Also one big meal when you've been fasting for 16 hours gives you something to look forward to everyday.
I haven't consistently eaten breakfast in 10+ years. I do this every day. How is this a challenge?
I have been doing IF for 3 months now. It is one of the best decisions i've ever made. My waist size has gone down and my sleeping patterns have improved.
I never eat breakfast and my lunch doesn't start until 12:30 so I've been unknowingly doing this for years😂
I loved the gratitude attitude! Something to think about, how amazing that we can eat anytime and as much as we want. Wow, what a privilege!
I do this every day. I only eat once every 24 hours. I've lost 25 pounds since February
That seems unbelievably unhealthy...
@@FreakieFan OMAD isn't unhealthy at all. Fasting has many benefits
@@peppermintpatty180
I know fasting isn't unhealthy. But eating only once every day is unhealthy. That's not fasting, that's an eating disorder.
Your body needs fuel, and only once every 24 hours every single day is definitely unhealthy. That's something that you can do once or twice a week, but definitely not more.
@@FreakieFan most people on OMAD only have a calorie deficit of 500 calories a day. Intermittent fasting legit helps in so many ways. I'd agree with you if there was hard study done on damage done by intermittent fasting but there just isn't. If the person fasting is purposely under eating till the point of anorexia then yeah I can see how that for sure is an eating disorder but the average Joe usually hops into IF for health benefits more than just huge weight loss
@@peppermintpatty180
Eating one single time every 24 hours like the OP says he does is NOT intermittent fasting..
Do you have a workout routine video? If not then you should make one. I'd find that really interesting
