Thanks for the info!
I never understand the 36 hr. Because it messes up my eating routine.
I eat daily between 5pm-6pm. I don't religiously eat then, if I eat at 4:00-4:30p, it's not the end of the world, or eat at 6pm. But generally eat around that time.
So I'll do a 47hr or 71hr easily. And I generally power walk with the wife daily, like 7-9 miles. Never hungry or weak.
I do the 36 to clear me out from Sunday and Mondays. Tuesdays i do a hard workout during the day then have plenty of water and green tea. All the other days i do the 20-4. I like the 36 hour fast because its starts my work week off right since I work Wed-Saturday. My eating schedule wed to Saturday is 7am to 11 am.

I’ve actually fasted for 3 days a couple of times only drinking water. I tough it out, or maybe I’m just foolish to have only water.
The first day is usually the hardest, by the middle of the second day I’m thinking “It sure would be nice to have something to eat”. But I’m not really hungry.
Day 3 I’m just ready to eat something at some point.
My problem is that I get headaches when I don’t eat, and also my energy’s real low.
The pink Himalayan salt and potassium will kill those headaches and hunger pains. During long fast your body needs minerals and electrolytes to keep balance and run right and keep energy.
Drinking black coffee and straight tea may also help. Every morn I have black (Bulletproof brand) coffee. Then a big cup of Burdock Tea with Sea Moss and Bladderwrack. Less than 10 calories, so does not trigger breaking my fast.
I'm trying at IF starting off with 16-8..first day was rough but i its getting easier but i want to get to at least 20-4. Isnt bulletproof coffee just coffee mct oil and wouldnt that break the fast?
Yes. I'm saying I drink the brand 'black'. With nothing else. I've been on the Bulletproof diet for years and swear by the coffee. Since going hard-core OMAD for a year, been drinking it just black. Other brands make me feel tired after a few hours. Bulletproof I don't. But you can try other brands, just try a light roast.
I drink a glass of plain green tea every, plus I'll drink a glass for a pre workout also. If you can go 16 you can easily do 20.
Uh oh...

Intermittent fasting doesn't help you lose weight, UCSF study suggests
A new UCSF study has found that time-restricted eating, a health fad with many adherents in Silicon Valley and Hollywood, doesn't seem to help people lose weight.
KEY POINTS
- Intermittent fasting, in which eating is restricted to a specific window of time, is a popular health fad.
- But studies have primarily been conducted on mice, and not people.
- A 12-week UCSF study of 116 overweight people found no statistically significant difference in weight loss between people who restricted their eating to a specific eight-hour period every day and those who didn't.

Yep, lower inflammation, healing, reversing certain conditions plus giving the digestive system a chance to reset itself
Not sure if you said this already but do you stay in you window during your chest days?
Calcium, Taurine and quinine helps too.
It is going to be hard going to da boot, food is everywhere.
Yes, i just push the time back I eat and mostly do one meal a day on my cheat days. Sundays and Mondays I go in. Last Monday i had about 16 lemon pepper wings, 2 boiled turkey necks and a daiquiri with my old lady.
Cheat Days are needed.
OMAD on them Christmas, new years and Thanksgiving meals
That's the plan fam
How are you affected after your cheat day? Depends on how crazy it got I either gain 0-2lbs
I always hold on to extra /waterweight when I cheat but it clears out within a day. During the summer i can workout and easily drop 6 to 7 pounds of water weight. When its not hot I'll take some dandelion root pills for a diuretic to pass the extra sodium i had from cheat meals.
Interesting..I'm going to try this..after election day..I'm starting back on it..my window had always been 12:30-630 and I would do OMAD on Saturday and Sunday as well..but fall is always hard for me because it's like when I watch football..I have to eat crap..lol
im still fasting but now on my non fast days i will snack on some peanuts with a small cup of coffee between the hours of
8-10 pm..by then im in the bed usually round 12-1 so im trying my best to keep insulin levels low at night during my off days....
havent been this slim without working out in the past 15-yrs...still doing my push ups 2-300 every other day...

Man you gotta exercise on them cheat days, either before or after. On Sundays i get up around 9 and exercise, then watch ball at 12, eat around 3 or 4. Mondays i workout in the morning, eat around the same. The exercise along with them dandelion pills will push the extra sodium out your system
I drink dandelion tea daily. It's delicious, it tastes earthy.
I'll do the tea also when im low on the pills, i drink a glass of green tea every morning when I wake up, use it for pre workout also
Definitely.
I plateaued when I was doing OMAD Monday thru Friday, and two meals on Saturday and Sunday.
I broke that plateau when I started doing OMAD everyday and made my cheat meal one meal. Been losing weight ever since.
