lose weight by water fasting

I'm going to drink just water and eat nothing for the next 8 days. How much weight will I lose? My weight us 155 and my target weight I'd 119 I hope to reach it by the end of October.

Here is the answer to this question. In order to lose weight, you have to subtract calories. Safe weight loss is 1-2 lbs/week, so in order to lose 1 lb/week, you'd have to drop 500 calories from your BMR each day (1 lb is equal to 3500 calories, so 500 calories X 7 days = 3500 calories or 1 lb). OR you can drop 250 calories from your diet and increase .....

t enough food coming in and metabolism will slow down. If you do lose weight, it will only be water weight, not fat and whatever you lose, will be regained as soon as you start eating... Definitely not healthy and would be considered an eating disorder for which you need medical attention.

Also, I should add, as this is the weight loss community, fasting is a terrible way to lose weight. When you go back to eating, if you haven't changed your diet permanently to one that works better for you you'll just go right back to where you started. There are a lot of good reasons to fast, but losing weight isn't one of them.

ok, I'm starting my 30 days of water fasting. I'm going to do it cold turkey. It's my first time and I've read a lot about this fasting on the net. My questions are, what can I do to curb my "hunger"? and what should i take after the 30 days of water fasting? can i have yogurt after the fast? How many days should i wait before taking in solid food again?

A prolong state of starvation will develop malnutrition (lack of essential vitamins, minerals, and nutrients) which will affect the heart and other body systems. The weight you lose is water-weight which we lose when we first diet and/or fast. Recommend eating healthy foods with proper servings to lose weight and stay healthy. Hoped this answered your question.

Although you can obviously lose weight by not eating, you also lose nutrients that way. Fasting is a spiritual and cleansing technique, but those who do it historically would typically do it when not doing much of anything else -- it was a rest. If you're still doing all the things you usually do, you'll just lose nutrients that you need to do those things, especially if you're athletically active or work in a job that requires a lot of physical exertion.

Well, I know I'll probably get bashed for this, but grains are NOT the way to go for weight loss. All you are doing with your current diet is reducing your caloric intake. Sure, that will ensure that you will have some calorie deficit but I don't believe that it is the best or healthiest option.

Intermittent fasting can be done for weight loss and it does work. Many who do the fasting pick a "window" throughout the day (say from 11:00 am - 3:00 pm) and that's when they do their eating. Check out Dr Mercola; he's a great fan of intermittent fasting and has several articles on how to do it safely.

Eat 6 small meals a day for 1 month to gain fat quickly. Then, start doing daily intermittent fasting once you think you gained enough weight. Your HGH (Human growth hormone.) will increase by 1500% - 3000% (Depending on your BMI, weight, lean mass, etc.) throughout the day. You will gain muscle, bone density, and lose excess fat when you do daily intermittent fasting.

Your weight and leanness is determined by your genetics and by your diet and how it affects your metabolism. Fasting can be useful for spiritual and detoxification, but obviously one doesn't need to detox a whole lot.

Fasting is not for weight loss. It's for a lot of things, mostly spiritual or for cleaning out the system once in awhile, but is not a good way for lasting weight loss. A "diet" is by definition not a way to lose weight permanently. A permanent change in diet is. I have nothing against fasting, just using it for weight loss.

How fast you can lose weight by eating just one big nutritious meal a day?

But you can be 230lbs and look HOT if u dress stylishly and learn to do your hair and make-up well. People will RARELY make fun of others who look put together. I lost weight by liquid and water fasting and some walking. Do your research though on how to go about losing weight the healthiest way possible. And if you are blessed enough to get the motivation you need, go full force into losing weight and never look back.

Fasting is not generally a good weight loss or any other weight related strategy. It's generally used for cleansing toxins out of the system. Many people will fast a day a week, or a day a month, but the reason is for health, not for weight purposes, as your metabolism will just go right back to normal just as it would after a one or two day binge such as at Thanksgiving. At least this is how the people I know who fast do it and why.

Forgot to mention that i am not taking any meds at this point, trying to lose weight and go back in three months for another A1C test. My last A1C # was 6.

I'm a 15 year old girl and I am almost 5'3". I weigh 120 lbs but I want to be 105 lbs because I want to cheer in college but I can't seem to lose any more weight. Is there any way to lose these 15 lbs?

Will intermittent fasting help to loose weight also ? Or if not weight loss what would be the benefits . I usually do an intermittent fast on black coffee for about 18-20 hours .

I think that if you stop eating at 7 PM by eight or 9 AM that is a significant amount of fasting time for your body granted your sleep see you don't feel the sensation of fasting but you are fasting.

Hi JMst. The intermittent fasting and Ketogenic diet is working great for me. Eating two times a day 12 pm and 6 pm.
