Different types of fasting

[georgegeorgia]

Now I want to try fasting , never did it 

There is different types of FASTING 

Just watched a YouTube older mature aged bodybuilder saying he goes on a 48 hours DRY FAST ,that means absolutely nothing to eat or drink 

 

For you who go on fasts please tell me what you personally feel

 

Will I feel tired after say 12 hours !

Is the "energy" kick after a few days real ?

What your method ?

Weekend fast?

I don't fancy this Dry fast 

 

So water ,tea , black coffee is ok ?

Do not, if in Thailand or elsewhere with hot climate, do a fast that excludes water, nto even for 48 hours.

I fast twice a week,  only protien shake at 0600 am, plenty of water thru the day, eat fruit in afternoon, banana before sleep, don;t eat until 1000 next day………….took a year, now I am not near as ‘hungry’ as I used to be - intermittant fasting ‘teaches’ the body to not be hungry.  I have lost 72lbs in last 3 years, all visceral fat……..anything faster could be damgerous to us older folks, I am 75…………..persistance is the key, also I don't drink alcohol whatsoever, one can argue the health benefits of a beer or two, but that leads to three, four, ten………get my drift??

After detoxing and blocking posts from GG my fasting from this forum and certain posters has given me a new life!
