Fasting is the perfect way to lose weight quickly. There are multiple fasting regiments, one of which is the 48 hour fast. I am currently doing a 72 hour fast regiments broken then by a large meal followed by 72 hours for the next month.

It's been two weeks and I lost 15 Lbs should be around 25 to 35 Lbs a month in this regiment. It's not easy, especially if you are just starting out, but as you get used to it is extremely easy and doable, you just have to be careful regarding your micronutrients needs during your meal.

There is a 5 day regiment followed by two open days, but I get weak and dizzy by the 4th day as I am not used to it enough, so for now the 72 hours regiments will do fine.

Shoutout to 18:6 intermittent fasting for keeping me sane these past few years. Helped me lose some weight a few years ago. Ofc it’s CICO, but IF worked best for me.

It's not only for losing weight. I am fasting pretty regularly for mitochondrial biogenesis and autophagy. In other words, for longevity.

There is still not enough data on this subject to be officially scientifically supported as it pertains to humans specifically, so I will not he fasting for those reasons. But I do have enough data that says it will do away with my gut, so I'll take that for now, if it comes with longevity then that's a bonus.

Fasting is just snake oil and the weight loss is just placebo. You only need an apple dongle to lose weight.
