For how long do I need to fast to start losing weight?
| you are losing 0,00000000000000001994 microgram right now from breathing so ackhckhchchyually you already start losing weight
| If you're already eating a healthy anount, then try fasting one day a week. If you haven't though, you really should change your diet a bit ^^ remember to exercise, especially cardio, and drink more water, it speeds up metabolism :) please be safe though. Don't starve yourself or anything!
| Starving yourself doesn't work for losing weight. In fact it makes it easier to gain it. Your bodies motabolism slows down. What you should do is start counting calories and keep it at about 1300 depending on your life style. Also fasting muscle will be the first to go.
| >>288537 true, but I have heard that fasting for one day a week is enough to lose weight but not enough to slow down your metabolism.
| >>288537
I agree with this, calorie reduction rather than straight up fasting is the route I went with and it worked perfectly
Granted, I caught myself early (dropped from 170 to 150 in 3 months, not obese by any means but I was starting to feel unhappy)

| Just do one meal a day
| >>288703 It's one larger meal a day. Once your body gets used to it it's just fine. It lets your body fast for all that time you're not digesting food.
| You're losing weight the moment you stop eating.
| Don't fast, I've got 5 straight forward steps that'll let you lose weight >fast.
1. Read nutrition facts. ALWAYS know what's in your meals, whether home or restaurant made.
2. Avoid sugar and sweets. That includes soda. Anything with >10 grams of sugar per serving is a no go, except maybe fresh fruits.
3. Reduce your carbs and when you do use them, eat whole grains like steel cut oats, brown rice, and whole wheat bread. Whole grains burn slowly, giving lasting energy and fullnes
|
4. Alcohol is sugar. If you have to drink, do it in moderation.
5. And this one's important. COUNT YOUR CALORIES. Some snacks (lookin at you potato chips) seem like you can just munch on them throughout the day, but in practice can fricken double your calorie intake.
If I recall 2000 cals are the standard daily amount for adults, but I think as long as you make sure to watch your calories and avoid overindulgence the exact intake isn't such a big deal.
Good luck and godspeed.
| Try not to eat much food! Just a little less then what you normally eat is fine. Dont skip breakfast! Dont eat snacks and work out 2 days a week.
| Do cardio, drink 3 liters of water or more, eat one healthy meal a day
| * try to shit out more
* when you finish eating, induce vomiting afterwards
* do push-ups and pull-ups
* squat when you shit, so that more shit will come out of you
* drink filtered and boiled water
* eat fresh bread

* this won't help at all.
* this is absolutely terrible advice, you could get a psychological eating disorder and really mess yourself up this way. Please don't do it.
* this is fine, but it's much easier to lose weight with cardio.
* this won't help you lose weight, but it could help you go faster in the bathroom, and help constipation problems. I recommend putting a short stool in front of the toilet to put your feet on, like the squatty potty (yes, its a real product).

*drinking more water will help, it will speed up your metabolism a little and make you feel overall more refreshed. Make sure it's filtered, but boiling it won't do anything else, filtered water ready has germs removed, that's what filters are for.
* fresh bread is fine, don't give into the low carb diet craze. You'll lose weight fast, but that is almost entirely water weight, not fat. You may also experience constipation due to less water retention, so that's not fun.
| >>291240 I'm proud of you g/u/rls for trying to get healthy and lose weight, but please, don't take it too far, and stay safe. Sincerely, that random trap who posted nudes on /d/.
| >random trap who posted nudes on /d/
Which one of them?
| Just eat very light foods without any carbs or barely any, drink water. If you fast, do it only once a week.
