I struggled a lot with eating disorders when I was a teenager and after recovering I tried fasting. It started just with wanting to be healthier but I got more and more obsessed and the fasts became longer and longer. I based my self worth on how long I could fast and I had so many cravings and ended up binge eating after. I realised that the fastibg had stopped being healthy for me and went back to normal eating. Two years later I got back into wanting to be healthier and tried fasting again, the exact same thing happened. I think fasting works for some people but if you're prone to eating disorders I would be careful. This is just my experience 🙁 I still only eat two meals a day now but that's just out of routine and how I've always preferred. I know if I start properly timing my fasts again I'll end up in the same situation
It’s weird how people who say fasting is dangerous, also have nothing to say about mainstream options like bariatric surgery; which have a reasonably high failure and death rate. No one wants to talk about that though cos it will hurt the narrative. I’d much rather bet on myself and take my chances with intermittent or prolonged fasting, which i have done.. 80lb down now in 2 months, and I’m just getting started.. Watch this space! 😎
IF has changed my life, I lost 25 lbs and reached my goal weight. I did OMAD and now I do 20/4 or 16/ 8 with a sensible feast day on Sunday. IF is a lifestyle not a diet. Thank you Dr. Fung 🥰🥰🥰
Thank you 😊 I’m 71.5 years young and just did 21 days off 1 meal a day I lost 13 pounds and feel great 😊 thank you Dr. Fung👍🏻👍🏻
Anytime I feel like Im struggling during my fast I come here and watch lots of your stuff man, you're really helping me.Thank you
I was Anorexic when I was 14 and again in my early 20's. Today I'm in my mid 50's and fast anywhere from 12 -15 hours a day. Sometimes if I can't do it then I don't. Not a big deal. I fast only for health reasons. I never fear becoming Anorexic again because I remember the hell I went thru with my body when I was younger and learned from that. Lord knows I don't want to go thru that crap again.
NO. I don't think so because I have been doing OMAD for more than a year. I.F. actually help me stop looking for food to eat.
I do not think fasting causes eating disorders but I do think that if you are not careful it will help to trigger those disorders that you have already have because the mind is sick and if you don't heal that then fasting can be abused.
fasting is the only way I can break a binge-purge cycle. It helps you regain a sense of control over your eating
