    After I read Obesity Code, I eliminated sugar, added a sugar free protein shake per day with fruit, lots of veg and protein, enjoyed fats like butter, nuts, olives, avacado, oh and no pasta or rice, potatoes on special occasions 😊. I’ve lost 55lbs in 6 months. I don’t count calories at all I just ask myself “what’s the best choice right now”. Oh and I try not to eat at night. For me it’s a sustainable way to eat forever, not a short term diet. Thank you Dr Fung!

    Dr. Fung, I am glad that at the top of your list you put the elimination of sugars and refined carbs first, before you worked your way down to fasting. While many can jump into fasting, for others it is difficult. I always find that when you remove sugars and carbs first, and allow your body to acclimate to this way of eating, it makes fasting much easier.

    • @alexjulius69
      @alexjulius69 Před 3 lety +20

      Yes, you'll stay at relatively low fat percentages just by eating real food. Doesn't mean you can get to 12% body fat easily or something, but getting to 20% body fat with nature's foods is easy. Definitely the way to go before attempting fasting. There's no point in fasting if you're just gonna keep stuffing your body with bullshit foods all the time.

People say to avoid fat because of it’s high caloric density (and other reasons) but overlook its strong satiating effect. I fast for 4 days a week (96 hours) and I feel so much better.

    I have done steps 1-4 since I was 20 years old. Shop mostly at health food stores. Eat whole foods. Cook myself. Eat lots of veggies and I eat a variety of meats and fish and healthy fat. I am now 64. Over the past 10 years, I gained about 5 pounds a year. Most of it was on my belly. I got to a point (last year) when I realized that I was now OBESE! This did not feel good and it was alarming. I made a decision to lose the weight - not so much because of how I looked - but because I knew that it was affecting all my internal organs, my joints, etc. I had already tried to lose weight (instead of gaining it) for years and nothing worked. I didn't get it because I am NOT someone who eats the garbage that most people do. I drink mostly water and I monitor how much - about 64 - 80 oz. per day. I also drink a warm cup of lemon water in the morning. ANYWAY.... let's just say I have always done a TON of things to keep my body healthy - and YET - I gained the weight. I was about 40 pounds overweight. At that point, I stumbled upon INTERMITTENT FASTING! What a Blessing! It resonated with me so I started to incorporate I.F. into my life. That was about 10 months ago. Slowly the weight has been coming off. I have lost 34 pounds. Slowly is good - as it is the healthiest and most effective way to keep the weight off. I also added walking 3 miles, 5-6 times per week - briskly - so I work up a sweat! I was diagnosed last year with fatty liver disease and was SHOCKED! I don't drink, I don't eat or even purchase sugary foods - junk foods - EVER, etc. Yet I had the beginning of fatty liver disease. Since I started the I.F., that has gone away. Completely. I also know that I.F. can help diabetes. I don't have that issue and never have - but I was probably close to it. AGAIN, I.F. is the BEST way to "lose weight" -- but it's not just about losing weight - it is about helping your body and all the body parts to function well and not have to work harder and sometimes they cannot help you to function anymore if you do not treat them well. THANK GOD FOR I.F. I used to eat breakfast and always felt like I had been drugged. Especially if I ate the "healthy steel cut oats" - no sugar of any kind added - sometimes nuts or blueberries. When I stopped eating breakfast and fast EVERY SINGLE DAY now for 19 hours and have a eating window of 5 hours - THIS has given me my life back!!! I have so much more energy than I did before. I am so happy with I.F. I recommend it to EVERYONE!

      Mr.Raji Nevin, I read your entire comment and felt good. I do not know your nationality, but I am an Indian. Wheat and rice are our regular food. Just want to know, can I include it in my eating window? Also, I am a 51 year old woman. I weigh 86 kgs and fat lot of abdominal fat. Now I notice fat is everywhere....on my upper arms, hips and thighs too. How can intermittent fasting help me? I am sure I am insulin resistant bcoz I have fatty liver and abdominal fat too. How to control hunger? How to politely refuse food when we visit someone? What foods can I eat? Can I have bulletproof coffee while fasting? These are few of my question if you could plz find time to answer them. Thank You.

      Great! I am 60 and since menopause have battled weight big time. I had just recently resigned myself to being a hopeless sugar addict whose future is just being an old fat lady. I have done Weightwatchers successfully many years ago but it is so much cooking and buying ingredients that cant be found and endless exercise. I know all those diets are too high maintenance and wont last. This is a simple, logical approach. I have only started a couple 9f days ago and lost 5 pounds already. I am inspired. Whats even more incredulous about making the scales move is that I cant exercise much due to severe hip osteoarthritis.

    Dr. Fung, thank you for your work and insights into fasting. I am morbidly obese but over the past year have worked my way into and alternate day fasting lifestyle and while the weight loss is slow it is helping and I feel so much better physically and mentally! Reading your books and watching your videos had been a huge influence on my decision to start fasting. It makes so much more sense physiologically than any of the diet plans i have attempted. I have been obese from young childhood so I know it will take time to heal my body from the insulin resistance it has developed over the years. I am hoping to prevent diabetes and lower my A1C out of the pre-diabetic range as soon as possible.

      It's due to a lack of electrolytes. Most people don't take in enough but when you fast your body needs much more. For a calorie free cheaper alternative to sports drinks mix in salt, "no salt" potassium, and baking soda into water daily. Your body will let you know if you need to increase or decrease the amount. If you are having a little diarrhea you've had too much salt. If you're cramping not enough. Check out snake diet on CZcams. Cole is loud and in your face but truelly is all about helping people get the weight off and heal themselves. 👍

    Dr. Fung, your book changed my mindset completely and I have lost 11 kg within 6 months and I keep on losing weight. Previously I've tried several times conventional approaches (lower calories + sports) and failed to keep the new weight. Intermittent fasting was a game changer! Never in my life would I believe that fasting could be so easy and would lead to such results. I use 24/0 or 36/0 to lose weight (I really don't suffer or torture myself when I don't eat) and I use 16/8 to keep the new weight.
    Every time I regained my weight before I felt so frustrated. I don't know how the Intermittent Fasting will work in the long run or whether I will not give it up, but I just feel so much more relaxed in case I gain weight again and would have to start it all over again. I'm just not scared of getting into losing weight again. Thank you!

Eating small meals throughout the day does not work for me, because, even though I eat nutritious foods, I have difficulty with portion control. I am now eating basically a keto diet, between five and eight p.m.. I am also walking my dog and will ride my bike as weather improves. I am surprised how easy it is to do without eating during the day, when I am busy, I don't even think about it other than to make sure I drink plenty of water from my Berkey. I feel confident your methods will work for me, and look forward to my next doctor's appointment and being able to show that I have actually lost twenty or more pounds. And, I have a walk-in closet filled with beautiful clothes, I know I will be able to fit into once again. That's brilliant! To say nothing about being able to move more freely again.
