3 day fast

[Ingloriousbasterd]

Anybody done it? I'm 15 hours in and already starving 🤣it's just a Kickstart really. I've ordered a 7 day diet box from body and fit which il be having 950 calories a day on. After that week I'm not sure what to do! I can either start the fast 800, or one meal a day diet for a couple of weeks before going onto keto/intermittent fasting.

It sounds rather a messy way of dieting but I've always struggled so thought I'd mix things up a bit...I'm hoping it will all help with my self control and eventually I'd like to just do keto/1200 Cal's a day.

Anyone else had success doing something like this? X

No, I tried these quick fixes and always gained the weight back. You'll feel so hungry you'll end up overeating at some point . Can you not set a more moderate calorie target rather than 1200/keto?

Maybe I need more coffee. Are you fasting on 950 cals a day or are you not eating anything?

Sorry I meant I'm doing a 3 day water fast just to get me into diet mode and then will start the 950 a day box, that's only for 7 days though so once it's ended I need to start something else that's maintainable long term... I think keto might be a good option for me

3 day water fasts are best avoided.

If you think Keto is a good option, why not just start that now?

3 day water fasts are best avoided.

Why? There is no medical reason. Usually after 48 hours the feeling of hunger abates In fact in can be good for your body. Read Dr Jason Fung's The Obesity Code.

I definitely could not do it. I am always amazed at just how many calories I can lose weight on - probably shows how greedy I am normally.

I would try to get into ketosis first and then do the fast. It’s probably too hard to do if you’ve just gone from eating carbs. I can recommend the Fast800. I did it for 3 weeks and am still low-carbing but gradually increasing my calories.
