This is very true, I have been eating between 1-2 times a day since October 2020 and my appetite as really changed. I eat less and have more energy. Food isn’t that important to me anymore. I now eat only for energy and survival.
Absolutely love your name!
I eat for the taste of good food and drink for the taste of good 🍷
Same lovechild@ I started a year ago
Same!
More Power to you! So many processed foods in this day and age are created in order to make us addicted (and dependent) on them.
A lot of the time I’m not even hungry. I just want to eat
This is so true. I often do not even know why I am eating. This has led to weight gain. Must increase my discipline.
Food is good. I love food. But I have been loving too much and then feeling resentful because of the effects on my body composition and health...
The advertising in America on Billboards, magazines, internet encourages you to eat.
Exactly I think that's what causes obese and alot of us is like that
100% it’s learnt behaviour, you become a habitual snacker, and just eat out of boredom, it’s so terribly unhealthy long term

I first started fasting during covid lockdown and I lost 35lbs and was able to keep it off. Most people were surprised that I lost the weight while most people gained weight during lockdown. I highly recommend it.
what was your fasting schedule and what did it consist of?
@@evanhb49 I mainly skipped breakfast because I wasn't that hungry in the morning, I had lunch around 1pm and had my last meal around 6pm. After 6pm I did not eat nothing, not even a peice of a cookie. Sometimes I would skip breakfast and lunch and just have a Big dinner. And honestly I ate EVERYTHING junk food, good food, chip's, fruits... ect when you eat junk food and your still able to lose weight that's how you know fasting works.
Then more do it the more you will shrink your stomach and need food less
ill start now
There is only one reason I haven’t succeeded in intermittent fasting. I cant bring myself to drink my coffee black in the morning. I have issues lol
I lost 140 lbs by not eating trash, which allowed me to control my appetite. I eat 2 meals a day. Now I can feel my body using the food I eat. Let your food be your medicine.
You lost 140lbs by not eating trash !? Now I’m curious to know what kinda trash we are talking about . .
I lost 35 lbs
Eating once a day is best, just search David Sinclair PhD, this guru is only half decent, wearing a guru uniform and talking in his tone does not make him a guru, all bull rap. Otherwise David Sinclair should be a guru and other people who are non gurus who promote fasting.

Growing up I hated eating breakfast, but my parents always shoved food in my mouth before school. When I had let myself down and gained 50 pounds - intermittent fasting saved my appearance, and potentially Type 2 Diabetes. I lost all the weight, and felt better than ever!!!
starving yourself is a terrible way to lose weight
@@levifullported I know fasting can seem like starvation, but all it is, a time restricted eating. My appetite and digestion actually improved from just eating a few hours later after waking up, and stopping eating 3-4 hours before bed. Of course, healthy eating can serve as a catalyst for results.
What foods do you used to eat while you are in intermittent fasting?
@@vickylapore2750 I eat my normal diet, just in a time restricted manner. I try to keep it clean; things like eggs, veggies, fish, lean chicken, brown rice, lot of probiotics like greek yogurt and kimchi. I indulge here and there in some takeout. Black coffee in the morning helps suppress appetite.
Fasting healed my shattered body and brought me closer to my soul
Please tell us more about your experience
Congrats!
Please share more Calvin
Your experience would inspire us too. Please share.
Thank you Lord for this testimony
In the last 5 years I've gained a lot of weight. I did not realize that I hadn't felt hunger for years until I started eating 2 meals a day. Two meals per day was not my intention. I waited to feel hungry before I ate and 2 meals was a result. Once I allowed my body to set its own schedule, I followed it.
Hello, and what are the changes/ results??
@@bondarkenergy well, I had insulin resistance and now my body is adjusting better to less food and intimitant fasting. I've only started a month ago but it feels good not to eat all the time and not to live with constant sugar cravings.
@@renegaderogue6310 ,,, Intermittent.... Keep doing great
I love your reply Renegade...I’ve done almost the same. I’ve found i am am truly hungry when I eat now. I realized I hadn’t felt an empty stomach in many years. My blood sugars have come down and I’m off insulin. If you have any tips or suggestions that have helped your insulin resistance will you please leave them in a message for me? Many blessings to you.
@@michaell3711 Ah thx. 😊
This was inspiring. I knew we didn't need to eat so much. But no one listens when I tell them and they think I'm starving myself.
What you are putting in your plate is the primary concern. If all nutrients required by your body is met on day to day basis then the number of meals you have in a day become secondary.
But are ya?
@@eileenhavern77 no, I eat when I am hungry not when my stomach is empty
What you eat is not that important. The timing is the most important factor. We don't really get very many nutrients from food anymore. That could be a factor as to why we eat so much these days.
@@jasongibson7896 I disagree, the what is extremely important.. we cant live off of extremely sugary foods
It differs from person to person. Personally, if I don't have enough sleep I get headache and cannot work properly the next day. But he's right about the food.
Of course its called you have to detox..that will go away
@@kellyasp52 same, but I wake up every other hour, sometimes I eat through the night... This started with my menopause, only at 40...
I've fibromyalgia and I'm always exhausted the lack of sleep makes worse, I feel very depressed to watch this videos, but I can't stop searching for relief
Because some have more disease than others.
Low sugar levels interfere with good sleep. The body wakes you wanting you to eat to protect yourself.
prepare your body
*Today is a day to express our gratitude to our ancestors, who have contributed to our lives in immeasurable ways.*
I have been practicing OMAD and intermittent fasting, w a full day of fasting once a week on Sundays, for two years now.
I went from 250 to 170.
I was in the marine corps infantry as a young man. Doing PT everyday, obstacle courses, long hikes and then deployments to Iraq.
I am 38 now and in better shape than I was at 19-23. This is because I eat one nutritious low-carb meal, don't drink alcohol anymore, and I remained consistent in those things.
What time you eat your meal
@@AFEWSCRIPTURES depending on when I wake up and go street dancing, anywhere from 1-4, and never eat after 7
if you struggle, get into green tea or coffee to help carry you
@@ffxiarcadius yessir. I’m a spin instructor and i teach classes early AM(5 & 6 am) I’m usually starving afterwards. Any advice?
@@ffxiarcadius what will a typically meal look like for you?
@@AFEWSCRIPTURES I buy cross cut beef shanks everday, cow legs, and the cross cut exposes the bone marrow -this is my main protein
I buy bundle of beets every other day, immediately eat the greens with bacon, and other veggies like brussel sprouts, brocolini, asparagus, green beans, red onions and squash (all of these, except the beets are pre-cut at safeway)
I mainly cook with olive oil, but unsalted butter on occasion, and heat yellow curry paste (mae ploy brand) to add flavor to the veg, then throw in the beef in the same pan, and cook altogether.
If I'm lifting weight and doing pull-ups off tree limbs that day, I add 3-4 eggs
And I'll throw in a can of black beans every other day, it's only 55g or so, and the fiber helps to keep those carbs low, then sprinkle feta cheese I crumble on top everything
Since I began eating once a day, so many illnesses and body problems started slowly dissappearing. I started working out, crossfit and heavy lifting, on an empty stomach. Only with a cup of coffee.. I have never felt or looked better if I may. 38 years old this year but still building muscle 💪🏼🙏🏻 intermittent fasting has become my way of life
What are you doing for meeting protein requirements while working out and heavy lifting?🙏
@@navibangia4622 Honestly I eat whatever I know have proteins. We tend to spend too much thought on what to eat. Personally I have never measured or put on wheight, anything I have eaten. That's personal preference and what goal is in sight right..
These 2 last years I have gone to almost 100% vegeterian and trying vegan also. I love em both. Combine with Vitamin D and B, lemon water for the C, a big spoon of Apple vinegar after the food, walks in the sun, Omega 3.. Combining all these rather basic nutrition and habits you can go without food for several days and still feel great.
What has been the best for me with eating once a day must be the level of focus and the sense of enlightenment. Also my muscle management vs fat.
I do not encourage to start fasting hardcore btw outta of nowhere. Doing it slowly but surely is the way. Skip breakfast for instance and eat your first meal at 14-16. Your second and last meal in a 4-6h window and maybe after 2 weeks only eat one meal. One big meal with proteins and veggies. I barely eat any carbs and if i must it's rice, spaghetti sometimes. I throw whatever I have to eat in my cast iron. BBQ chicken, or broccoli, onions, mushrooms etc. I always make a stew of lenses or beans. Throw in chopped garlic, onion, carrots =)
When I feel to spoil myself I bake some bread. 1-2kilos maybe, by hand and let it rest for days in room temp. I take and form 1 or 2 whenever I wanna eat. With that dough I also make pizza. Google all this, its free.
And you wanna know what else is free? Being kind, is free. Sorry for ultra long answer lol
@@SwedishLatino Thanks a ton buddy ! It was insightful 🙏
Hmmm....i dont think you have the energy to do that kind of exercise and eating only once a day...
@@emzcasil4543 what if I told you I do have the energy to do that and much more, like daily working with creativity 🙏🏻
I have experienced what he is saying ! For about six months I was eating fruits and vegetables instead of a lot of curry, carbs, rice ! I still ate a 20-30 percent of my meal as carb , 10-20 percent protein !
I was sleeping for 3:30 to 4 hours only - I would take a twenty min nap after being awake for 8-10 hours and it worked very well !
However then I moved to my home and here it all stopped cos at my home they cook 4-5 times a day !
Two meals a day, breakfast and supper only, leave me feeling great.
That sounds like a great 😊 plan!
*supper. Spelling, learn it.

Hi, does that mean you only eat two meals per day? I'm interested to try this. Do you eat breakfast and dinner but no lunch?
@@LadyCypher54 yup
I did intermittent fasting started out 16 -8 method then after 2 weeks moved up to 18-4 then 20-4 method. I lost 32 lbs in just 6 weeks. I had so much more energy and I wasn't hungry. I only messed up because at week 7 I went on a 10 Day vacation and it all went downhill from there but I plan on starting back up again. It truly is a lifestyle change.
It's like anything, you've done it once so your body will do it again easier. Reset your mind into the same place to get started!
Me too, I messed up but going right back at it.
Look at our pets...some free feed but most people feed them every 12 hours and a small cup of food
Maybe we need “handlers” to keep us in check with our cravings...lol!
@@ckl5801 yes I always say if a healthy fit person was in control of all my meals I would have no problem keeping weight off lol

@@Hanover-ek4jy may be fasting almost daily
Hi
@@victoriasardinas4458 Hello
@@Hanover-ek4jy I eat at noon, and I eat before 6:30 in the evening. I don't eat anything else before noon the next day. I eliminated all snacks, cut down on sugar and alcohol. Goli is a good tool to take in the morning and evening if you feel your gonna need help with hunger. Drink lemon water in the evening instead of soda and juices. Do this and you will lose weight I guarantee it. I've lost about 30lbs so far. I recommend steering clear of a lot of red meat, I eat more fish and chicken. Drink water with your meals instead of sugary drinks. Also try to stop eating before you feel full. By the time your stomach tells your brain your full you've usually over eaten. I'm not saying eat like a bird, eat. Your only eating two meals a day just don't get crazy with your portions.
This is so true. I am an African American and I followed these practices before I knew it had a name. When I don't overeat I do feel better and have a better quality of sleep
So true. I tried it and I get satisfied from my sleep in just 4 hours . I was so productive these days
@The Midnight Hour with Carolyn Keep gong sis!
This is part of your culture as well. Very ancient practice in many African countries that were brought forth through the ancestors who were forced to come to America through slavery still used these practices. They even use them when they were forced into Christianity
fasting for spirituality etc. etc. this is part of your culture as well
embrace it look to your ancestors and their way. Decolonize your thinking peace to you sister
I was sick and underweight then I started eating before going to bed. I feel much better now.
I was often tired, and slept restlessly. Then I stopped eating before bed, and feel much better.
You were probably under eating
@@JonezBBQ if i don't eat for the night i loose muscle mass. need to eat a lot of protein and little carbs.
@@jonjon3829 Seems like you just don't eat enough to begin with.
You just need to eat more throughout the day more calories but learn to be moderate. By moderation I mean moderate your processed sugars, packaged food and junk food other than that eat!
This makes so much sense. I have stopped eating at 8pm and my next meal is the following day at 1pm, I do have another 2 small meals but only because I train hard and need the energy.
Yes I get hungry but water cures that.
Best shape of my life and feel fantastic, and most times I forget to eat meals which is even better.
This man speaks so much sense, it makes other 'experts' look like fools!

Ricardo you should do some fitness content, you look good

A lot of people mistake thirst for hunger so they eat. And when they eat they usually drink so this satisfies the thirst.
I’m grateful seeing the mystic talk on fasting I’m Ethiopian Orthodox & fasting is the principle🙏🏾
Fasting has changed my life!! Lost 25 lbs, feel great and made my life much more simplistic and enjoyable
What are the food's u ate?
I came across this by accident, I am so pleased I did, thank you for such inspiring words.
Took a while, but finally figured out, as I’ve gotten older, I don’t need 1/2 as much food as when I was young. I get bloated when I eat more than I need. Feel so much better, now that I hear my body.
Awesome
I feel better when I eat less
💚 No eat what you need 🕊
Gonna Start Eating Less It’s Messed Up My Stomach Which Has Caused Anxiety
I've been fasting since I was 6yrs due to my culture. I continue to at 34 it's self discipline physically and mentally. God bless for sharing 🧘🏾♀️🙏🏽💞
What you said! Discipline and self control which so many of us lack. It is empowering to exercise self control!
I’ve been eating this way my entire life because I just never felt a need to eat tbh every so often I’ll indulge but for the most part I eat very little. I’m 36 with 4 kids and my body is still the same as when I was 16. Whenever people ask me for advice they never like what I have to say though lol
Same here body is 16 but i am 48 🤣🤣🤣
Even if they dont like just tell they the truth. the truth is always hard to swallow!!!
I cut my meals down to one good meal in the morning and a small meal in the evening and I feel so much better than when I ate three full meals a day. I also went down 3 pant sizes and it's only been about a month of me changing my diet. We don't need all of the food that we're consuming unless we're triathletes or burn many calories daily. Take care and eat to live👍
I fasted for a week on water alone. Was a very interesting experience. Learned a few things I didn't expect - one of which was the mental attachment to food. It's not just physical. Once my physical cravings went away, the mental one remained. I wanted to feel myself chewing and swallowing. Once that craving went away, I felt no hunger of any kind, physical or mental, on the 7th day.
I did that as well for 7 days and had the same experience. My first meal after that was an own made salad with tomatoes and cucumber not added much more and it was incredible delicious. I literally felt that my body began to heat up after the meal. Interesting experience everyone should try at least once in live.
I did the same for 3 days along time ago. I don't eat regularly. It's a great feeling when I don't eat but a sick feeling when I do.
@@cyrusbritto2902 Sounds like you might be suffering from anorexia. It`s certainly not normal, and likely very unhealthy long term.
@@daithilacha1 no, it's actually how one ascends the higher plane - by detachment to things we really thought we needed. food being one.
@Bald Eagle well, yes you think you do. no doubt.
This is for normal and healthy people, If you have your gallbladder removed, please don't remain empty stomach..keep eating in small amount to neutralise the gastric juice
This is also not always healthy advice for women. It can work but only under certain circumstances
Removal of gall bladder deprives bile juice in intestine - not stomach. So fat digestion is affected - nothing to do with Fasting - please check with your doc
@@wellwisher8500 thank you for your insight, however by empty stomach, I mean we should not remain without food for too long..you are right that bile juice secreates in intestine and without food it will cause problem in your GI tract..
Lolol my mom always said that food is to be respected. Eat only when I'm hungry... and only enough for the hunger to go away. People just eat wayyyy too much food. This man makes a lot of sense.
The food industry is not here to keep people fed in a healthy way, they exist to make a 💩ton of money and keep people coming back for more than they need. It’s not mostly the individual’s at fault, if they don’t have the knowledge to realise their senses are being assaulted on a daily basis they don’t stand a chance in combatting what is being perpetrated on them by immoral greedy corporations.
This man is speaking FACTS. Every time I don’t feel well. I fast. I’ll consume only raw fruits mostly. A few raw veggies. Mainly leafy greens. I usually juice or smoothies or just eat whole. I always end up feeling better. The same teachings from DR. SEBI. The government doesn’t want us fully understanding this. Too much healthy people = not enough money in their top money maker. “Health care” less hospital money & more FARM money

I used to work all night come home in the morning, eat, then sleep easily, i felt great when i woke 😊
2 months ago I did a 9 day water fast, I didn’t have any contact with my family.
Day 9 when they saw me they couldn’t believe how much younger I looked, I’m 45. Skin was clean and tight , I felt a euphoric sensation. In the morning I would wake up with so much energy I had to go for a jog immediately, and all this with only 5 to 51/3 hrs of sleep. Lost an incredible 20lbs in 9 days.
Wow, I'm interested to know if you continued the IM after the 9 days, what is your lifestyle now with eating?
I get the running thing after a fast, but the body craves energy after a I/F and run? I feel good after a fast but terrible after a run and fast
Yeah.... Of coarse your skin looked great you were probably the most hydrated you've ever been. Not sure why you think the fasting had something to do with it. Drink that much water and still eat and your skins going to look just as good.
@@tangerinetech5300 No you are wrong, b/c eating certain foods does effect how oily skin can get...
When I was a kid and teenager I always ate just one or maximum twice a day. Usually just one time in something like 7pm. I never have had problems with hunger, I don’t feel hungry. Sometimes I might feel a little bit but it goes away soon. When I eat I like to really enjoy and eat well and a lot. So because of this I’m going back to my natural eating habits and eat only once a day.
I've been intermittent fasting for years now and I always feel my best on the backend of my fasts when my stomach is completely empty. Our bodies are not meant to be constantly be digesting food.
Perfect truth. I myself being an overeater tried this & found myself very active throughout the day. It will reduce our expenditure on food drastically. If everyone practices this suddenly, there will be surplus stock of food in all parts of the world resulting in a drop in prices of all food-related materials.
😄😄😄
go find this male and tell him hehe
Eat 3 times a day. Eat little portions. Eat cooked meals with vegetables and fruits. Eat little portions. Drink plenty water. Avoid processed foods as much as you can, avoid sugar and too much salt. Avoid alcohol and smoking. Exercise daily and be happy and kind and you will be fine.
Avoid cooked foods as well...
Poor advice
@@Ken-iu2zp food police
@GURU DA GR8EST OVERALL Thats a half truth at best. Cooking food improves digestion and the absorption of many nutrients ..some cooking methods reduce nutrient levels (50% at the most) especially boiling...I would definitely say grilling is potentially the worst method as I'm sure a lot of people don't remove drippings and minimize smoke well enough. Surprisingly, contrary to most people's belief's, microwaving...yes, microwaving is one of the best ways to cook food, as well as steaming....all that being said, if you cook your food, you WILL lose some nutrients depending on the cooking method and food type in most cases. But not all....so grab a bottle of multi-vitamins and do as you please!
I agree with everything here except eating three meals a day. Drinking water, eating veggies and fruits, avoid processed foods, all great advice. But the scientific research is finally catching up with the fact that "breakfast is the most important meal of the day" was and always has been an absolute lie.
I watched this just after eating a small meal before bed because I was having hunger pains...
I don't eat until after midday but have been thinking I should stop eating by the time it gets dark as well.
Thank you for this! It is confirming what I kept sensing would help me maintain better health and wellbeing.
I do this. I fast everyday 18-20 hrs and I go to bed hungry . I feel so good everyday
I would feel hungry everyday 🤣
Since you're starving, you'll live forever. 😆
I do feel hungry but I ignore it . There’s food around me all the time which doesn’t help me at all.
When I want to lose weight I find it easier to fast completely for several days rather than to reduce my food intake. If the food's in front of me I find it easier to not eat at all than just eat a bit.
Yes! It is like a dam holding a river. One little crack and the whole thing collapses. But if not then it can hold thousands of tons of water.
do you not eat anything for 7 whole days? how do you do that? how do you not get extremely hungry, and weak
Man.... I'm the same way. I'd rather not eat than tease me with just a little bit of food.
You also have to do what's right for your body type. Smaller Vata body's can't fast as long as Pitta or Kapha. Kapha can fast the longest. 🌎🌄
I agree. Hunger is normal / ok. Recognize this and it won't control you.
it is not important if you agree

Tell this to my 93 year old grandma who eat 3 small meals a day .... she lives by herself and is sharper than me
God Bless your grandma 💞
That is awesome, but the key word there is small.. The fact she is not overeating would be a key factor.
I lost my grand father at 97 years. I still remember his deit. He always ate half what I was eating and never ever asked for another round. And timely too.. 9AM, 2PM and 8PM. He was so strict about the sharp timings to be followed till his last days. And he was perfectly in shape and health too. He died when I was 14 and I don't remember a single medicine he was using.
Key word small. And knowing old people like I know old people her last meal is at like 5:00 and goes to bed at 8:00-9:00 that’s 4 hours small meal is fully digested so she goes to bed “hungry”.
"Small" meals God bless her and all
Bit of advice. Ive been thru many stomach issues. Hospitalized for it and im 6"3" 150 pounds. I dont over eat but my build is genetic naturally skinny. SO!!, Your not supposed to lay down with food in your stomach!! The acid will go up to the wrong parts and it wont digest right and youll definitely get inflammation problems especially "heart burn" dont eat a full meal b4 bed..but if you happen to have a little snack..lay on your left side, it will cradle the food . Your right side is where the food goes after it breaks down. So your only creating more acid in areas its not supposed to be. And a doctor actually told me i was more intouch with my body than average people. And I didn't learn this from the doctors...i learned from them unable to teach me anything. So i only eat what i need, i feel it. And gluten is not good!! Its not that certain people have an allergy to it, but most people dont realize it is effecting them from headaches, skin break outs, brain fog and especially inflammatory anywhere in your body wich contributes to all kind of disease. And most won't even connect that its from gluten, I did..not the doctors. They couldnr figure it out so i did. Its just most can tolerate gluten withought getting deathly sick like I did. Im just intune in other words sensitive to it. Its not made to eat, its for shelf life. Its scientifically modified. And this was ten years ago when i started to notice something wrong...berore the big gluten free thing even happened. There was no hospital tests for it then. And soon after millions of others where also getting sick from it that why it blew up. And as soon as i took it out of my diet. No problems after 4 hospital stays. No tests then. One more thing...licorice root is great fro stomach issues. Among other things if anyone needs help do some research on it.
Respect
There were absolutely blood tests for celiac disease/gluten intolerance 10 years ago. I was diagnosed 21 years ago, and the tests existed then.
Thank you!
I have no problem with organically grown gluten grains. I can not tolerate glysophate…..Round Up, as it is called in the States. It is used on all non-organic wheat fields to bring the crop in uniformly.

I use to eat my emotions and always felt terrible, which would just convince me to eat more. It was a terrible cycle. I've been eating only 1 to 2 meals a day for the past year, choosing healthier options and cutting way back on processed and junk foods. I lost 100lbs since then and feel much healthier. Food became fuel more than pleasure and when I do eat something nice it's a much more pleasant treat.
Good for you. How did you manage to do that ? I tried intermittent fasting for a month and it worked wonders but then I got triggered by stress and things went downhill. I always do well for a while then something happens and things get out of control.
I am a "faster" by nature. My Mother was too. I am a Registered Nurse and understand the physiology of it...and have always "known" the wisdom of it. After 16-18 hours my blood glucose remains a healthy 75-80. ❤️
I recently discovered this as I have problems with impulse control. I just hate being hungry
@@cadecannon159 Same. I feel anxious & uneasy with an empty stomach. It's hard to focus, sleep, etc.
Just wanted to pop on here and say it is possible to eat less and still romanticize food, yes it is fuel but it can still be an incredibly joyful experience 🥰
when food becomes enjoyble for you ,means your anxiety is high,it is like having a dog for a person
@@leom6165 That is absolutely not true. Though I see your point-Yes, for many food can be a source of anxiety and on the flip side comfort when anxiety strikes but all that means is the relationship with themselves and food needs to be healed. To only eat when hungry and stop when full takes so much discipline, practice, and the undoing of social norms. When achieved, it's okay to enjoy that experience because frankly, life is a series of lessons and experiences meant to be enjoyed. That includes food my friend! 🤗
How full are you when you stop eating ? 30% ? 60%?
@@amberleefayee 🌱 Only eat small meal's 🕊
I thought that was a very measured, constructive and fair comment but it seems to have drawn out the mansplainers....
Now, he speaks the truth! I do feel better when I eat less! I will try eating every 8 hours. This may be possible for me! Thanks..
I use to eat just once a day and I felt great. I had a lot of energy and was at a good weight. I started eating three meal a day, now I’m always tired and falling asleep even during my commute to and from work. And I gained about 20 lbs. take this advice.
I'm on the same thing sometimes I'll have a 3rd because I weight train and run everyday. I'm about 3 months deep but I'm getting urges to just have a hot dog burger pizza and tacos all at once.
1 meal a day is poor for protein synthesis.
It's so weird, I felt the exact opposite. I had two meals a day if that and they were sometimes unhealthy. I decided to start exercising and eating proper, I have much more energy than before even allowing me to wake up at 5 everyday so I can have the time to workout. The only thing I can completely agree with is we do not need 8 hours of sleep everyday.
Fasting is good. It has conditioning that makes the body more efficient it also strengthens the mind to be less controlled by the physical desires of the body.
Food Forest Guerrilla Gardening beautifully said my friend! Thank you for the pearls of wisdom!
some articles say fasting slows digestion and gives problem why?
@Flowasky brown That's actually a good thing. That headache means your body has started to clear out filth but when one eats, body's energy gets diverted to digest the food.
When i started the 9 day Navratri fast(twice an year), i for 1-2 days used to feel the headache but after 2-3 times, even that went away.
Now i eat Nothing for 9 days. Just 1 glass lemonade 2-3 times a day. Lemon + Honey. Sugar is poison, shouldn't ever be consumed.
@@abhidahiya4007 Kudos to u...but how do u survive on lemonade ??!!!!
@Flowasky brown i was a guy who always wanted to eat something after every two hours. But then i started one day fasting on Sunday that is i used to skip dinner. Initially i felt very hungry. But later i got used to about it and drink water if i feel hungry
For about 15 years I’ve eaten less, 2 rules. Eat twice a day, breakfast and lunch.
The approximate amount is based on what both cupped hand can hold. Plus the prayer of gratitude:
“Blessing to all who made this meal possible.
Blessing to all who do not share in my good fortune”

Timing of your breakfast and lunch?
I started intermittent fasting for 6 months before I new what intermittent fasting was, now I'm more aware and learnt more about it I'm doing a 16/8 fast. I've lost weight, my asthma has nearly completely gone which mean no preventer and almost no reliever sprey, I genuinely believe autography is doing more than just rejuvenating cells.
In Sept. of 2020 I weighed 300 lbs. when my wife separated from me. Lost much of my appetite and activity level increased and I literally lost 50 lbs. in 3 months, the right way. I was in the Army so I know what he is saying is true.
My wife and I wanted to give our marriage another try but she put me out of our house in July of last year, this time I think for good. My dad and grandma both passed away in November and been really depressed for a long time. I've been unable to continue losing weight and seeing this video is encouraging as I want to lose weight once again, the right way.
Not for anyone else or for looks but to benefit my health and be in better spirit. There was so much of what he said that rings true and going to try and take it to heart. Good luck to anyone else in a similar life struggle!
Oh my gosh I’m so sorry. That is so much change and loss in such a short time. I hope you do your very best to make yourself happy and healthy because you deserve it. Be kind to yourself. The best part of your life might be starting today! I really mean that. I’ve had a similar situation and I’d never go back. I’m thinking of you! ♥️♥️
Keep well and save dude👍
thanks for sharing...I lost my mother, brother in law and uncle within 8 months.trying my hardest to remain positive and well...but I think getting back on my weightloss/ intermittent eating journey will help me...and YOU too! God bless you
I’m type 2 diabetic, and have had my gallbladder removed, and I eat 1 time a day at the same time every day around 5 pm, and I also exercise almost every day, and I’ve never felt better! Do what’s best for your body, your body will let you know if you need, or don’t need something, listen, and trust it!

Bruh I can’t think or function properly especially going to bed hungry. I don’t over eat or eat heavy at all. I think we all should just eat healthier & at least a salad or yogurt for dinner. I’ve done this whole fasting thing & my body just shuts down.
Fasting helps the mind and soul
Brotha nobody knows what is the truth what works etc etc our food systems and medical systems are all evil and financed by evil people who don’t care about our health you just gotto try stuff till you find something that feels good and helps you might take a lot of trial and error but eventually you’ll find the system that works for you.
Been intermittent fasting since sept 2020 best decision I ever made.
Kudos. Me to since September 2020.❤️❤️❤️
What were the immediate differences and long term ones? Thanks for sharing
Weight loss was immediate feeling awesome was immediate and not being hungry and eating less came later. Also my waist went from 42 inches to 32 inches to this day . And I dont consider myself keto but I do try to limit refined carbs. Hope this helps
Some of what he says feels like false hope. I turn away from that. If you're a manual labourer you'll need more than 2-3 hours sleep. And you'll need to eat correctly to maintain good health to work physically hard. Some of this is wishful thinking. But eating too much, yes, he has a good point.
I said the same thing to myself. Whenever I sleep for 2-3 hours at night my brain is so foggy. I have to get a good night sleep. I don’t know how he can maintain. I feel the false hope. But he is right about the food.
I eat 2 meals a day from 12pm-4pm and i feel amazing for it
Big meals tho I'm guessing
I do the same a smoothie followed by a salad with all the vitamins and nutrients added and it's not a huge salad. I feel satisfied. It's all a mind thing. I used to crave chocolate after. I've had non in the house for a while and actually stopped craving it.
How many calories ? How much do you weigh may I ask?

One vacation week I didn't have money and there was a free large and tasty breakfast buffet. I ate two cherry cheese blintzes, eggs, peas rice. I didn't eat anything else all day except two mozzarella cheese sticks. I lost five pounds, totally unexpected.
If I find a large tasty buffet like that, I will obviously stuff myself and then fast for the whole day or two
I would do 16-hour fasts and then increase to 18-20 and sometimes 24. I have an insane amount of energy and my brain is as sharp as it can be. I work as an RN in a busy Emergency Department. There is a noticeable difference in my mental and physical agility when I fast for those times. I will stop eating around 10 pm ( i work until 9:30pm) then not eat until 5 pm the next day ( that's when my lunch is at work usually). I feel light on my feet and my brain is never clouded. Quite remarkable but makes perfect sense.
Beautiful! When I woke up years ago I found health improve quickly ! Docs DIDN'T know what I had, because it wasn't listed for them to read.
I did my own research and cut down to 1 meal a day, whallah ! Bless you for discussing this issue.
its viola
This is so true last month I started eating 2 meals a day at 1 then last meal at 630. And drink water and Small portions and do a 30 minute workout I was 167 now I'm 155 and I feel great

I think I have discovered why you are supposed to SIP water. I usually like to CHUG to try to wash my guts because I probably eat too much dry food. But I think this allows some acid to float to the top and irritate my stomach sometimes. Sometimes when I chug water I can feel stomach acid burning high in my stomach.
Me too I hate that.
Fasting helps. I lost 35 kilo. Feel so good. No more reuma pain. I Am 39 , people think I Am 27

Sadguru say something about not eating for many days. Only then you can enter other dimentions. Today i didnt eat nothing and feel soo well. Normaly i eat once to twice a day and its working perfect. Thank you always for being just normal.
I've started feasting (23-1hr) for 2 months now and love it. Eating is mostly psychological in our society...and just like that is manipulated by marketing. Once a day, healthy food is plenty.
'Go to Bed Hungry'
- In theory, this is the right thing to do for health, and I'm sure it's good for some health situations. But in practice, at least for me, I end up waking up like half way through my sleep because I'm STARVING! It disrupts my sleep cycle, so I usually eat a little before bed, and I sleep happy all the way through.
AGREE 100% fasting isn’t for everyone just like I get weak & I can’t think if I’m hungry or haven’t eaten when I eat I feel better & have energy-I listen to my body & it’s never failed me
I usually only eat twice a day. Sometimes once. First meal is usually after 12. Sometimes it's just a smoothie. I've found that for me, getting enough minerals and vitamins is key to a vibrant body, not so much how much food you eat. Herbs are important as well as hydration.
Is your second meal a kit kat then
That’s true!You eat less you watch what you eat, your body wants healthier food
I intend to live forever. So far so good.

I’m so glad I started fasting again, I used to just because that’s what felt good to my body but I stopped when I began trying to gain muscle but it’s important to let your body heal and what fasts do.
Anyone who says fasting is bad or hard on your body is foolish. Evolutionarily we are built to and even thrive when fasting
I was 250lbs at the start of covid, im 170lbs now and thats all due to fasting on a 8/16 scedual and free weights i use in my house. I work a 12hr shift, raise my 2 adopted sons. And still have time to fast and workout.
8:47 true. "People are eating and drinking all kinds of rubbish and go to the doctor and say fix me.
Wonderful thing he said...
haha...that's so TRUE!!!
Perfectly said.
Indeed
At 47, I’ve always preferred to go to bed hungry over full. It’s just feels better to me, but most say they wanna go to bed full. Eating when hungry just makes more sense to me
Empty stomach means I will not sleep well
Last month I did fasting for 3days, I only drink enzyme juice while that. I felt amazing, and after the fasting I realized that my allergies completely cured. I couldn’t believe it! Coz I’ve having that allergy for more than 10 years but it was cured in 3 days so easily. Since then, I eat only once in a day at night coz I love the feeling of empty stomach. It’s strange but empty stomach really doesn’t mean I feel hunger. But when I wanna eat more I let myself eat more, I don’t wanna be hard to myself, but whenever I ate too much, next morning I feel that my stomach is heavy and uncomfortable , that feeling makes me wanna empties my stomach, so I do. Now my skin gets so much better, feel so energetic.
What is this enzyme juice?
@@Misssarkar1 It’s Japanese product, I bought it from Japanese company (coz I live in Japan). Product name is “Yuukousen (優光泉)”. But I don’t think you necessarily drink the same product to get same results, you can use any any enzyme juice you like. For me Important thing is that the product tastes good so I can really enjoy fasting. Enjoying the process makes the best results. in my opinion.
I once fasted on only water for 120 hours. It was incredibly difficult to accomplish the goal of 5 straight days without eating. My reward for attaining the goal was to eat a really PHATT sack of Magic Mushrooms. That night was the single most glorious experience of my existence of 42 years... a most clean & pure euphoric bliss (inspired by the Eleusinian Mysteries). Try it y'all !! You'll love it.
Curious, did you in any way feel nauseous after?
True said, India and specially Jainism had been following these practices of ekasan upvas etc for eons... They still follow it... But sadly younger generation of today are falling to pray of fastfood due to social media partying etc... What they eat unconscious, eats their health and wealth by going to Dr. Empty stomach is key to know uplift yourself... To know your energies... Your body mind spirit tunes easily when empty stomach, peace glows... A natural rythm balance is gained and meditation happens... You transcend to turiya... Swapnil
I'm excited to implement this system into my life.
Side note, i feel like if people were not so bias of culture and ethnic background we could be so much further along as one people and learn from eachother.

Hi. Can u give details of ur food as in how you accomodate fruits n food in your diet
@@priyab9456 i eat breakfast at 7pm , one boil eggs with banana , sometimes toast , after that i work till 3pm so thats the only time i can eat , lunch and dinner together , just normal, rice, veg , with a bit of meat , or a big salad , from the time is 4pm already so near to dinner , no more food for me , but i dont eat much rice, bread , or pasta sometimes if im eating out , it can make you fat , mostly noodles make me bloated
You can have fruitts for your snack , like morning snack or before your big lunch , any fruits
Nearly at the end of 10 weeks of one meal a day with keto friendly foods. At the start I had planned to transition to 16:8 for the long term. But now I have no desire for anything other than that one meal. I have tried a few 48 hour fasts during that time. I have to be honest, refeeding at the point is actually a chore. I don’t want that meal. I could and will soon just carry on for however many days I feel like. It’s a really surreal experience when you reach that stage and realise for 2 days you haven’t had any food, you are not hungry and feel absolutely brilliant. Nutrients and correct macro requirements are the factor that have stopped me going further.
What time should you eat
My ex ate once a day because she was so busy and it was things like salads, chicken and rice, tofu dishes, and soups. Didn't help her lose weight, she still didn't have much energy and she'd feel nauseous until i told her to eat something else. I guess everyone's body is different. Different medical histories and such
We are not different... We are all human beings... I highly encourage you to checkout Loren Lockman
She’s very stressed and not prioritizing her health even though she may be eating healthy foods. Stress can mess with sleep and so many other things our bodies needs as nutrients...food is only one part of our energy source and full well being. I had a job in contracting that killed my well being. I made a great salary but had no life. I am much happier now even though our family has experienced a lot of loss during this pandemic. I have reassessed everything that I once thought was important. I wish everyone a blessed day and hope you find your healthy balance.
The circumstances that made her eat once a day is what affects here health not the diet itself
@@tytbeats319 great point. Why did she only have time to eat one meal a day?
If you only eat once a day because you’re too busy to actually sit down and eat, then that’s not a good thing and she was probably causing her body years of damage through stress.
Glad you’re not with her anymore. You don’t need that shit in your life, homie
True! I did this for 8 years. I had a job before and I did sleep maximum 4-5 hours per day, sometimes even 2 hours. I did eat at 11 am in the morning and nothing more until next day 11 am morning, and believe me I did work a lot. During this gap of not eating, I was drinking water, and I never felt tired, sick or horrible. And I had more energy to do things, I was more positive! When I have empty stomach I feel better! People said I am a crazy person, but on that 8 years period with this programe of eating I was feeling and looking perfect! Now, because of a differrent job I eat when I am hungry, every hour if I am too hungry, and I don't feel good and my body feels tired, maybe I have to return to the old me...
im in the same boat. we've become sluggish because our body is always working to digest unnecessary food intake. we have to challenge our bodies and get back our energy. good luck, hoe you feel better
Last year I fasted for 18 days. No food, no weird drinks, just the best quality water I could find. I lost 35 lbs, all 5 of my senses heightened, the inability to concentrate.. Gone.
Irritability... Gone
Mental clarity peeked in and said “Hey girl!”👋🏽...... I felt amazing. It was a daily mental test because I literally WAS NOT HUNGRY after day 4.
You know the most disgusting thing about my fast was that after 12 whole days with not a morsel of food..........
💩💩💩.....gross.Firm believer that we do not need to eat everyday

If I go to bed hungry I'm going to fix a problem but I'm gonna create another one because is hard for my to sleep with an empty stomach.
Thanks .
I drool a TON if I go to bed hungry. It’s awfully obnoxious lol.
I can't concentrate on sleeping bc of the hunger.
Great speech! Also our prophet Muhammad s.a.w. says there are 3 ways to seat when you eat food. Automatically you eat less and will be healthy.
Between my meal there are 24h, I'm on a Keto diet plus IF plus OMAD during my 24h fast I do dry fast, no food, no water, tea, coffee, nothing. Feel amazing.Most of the time like 90% I do that, but there are days when I do two meals a day with 6 hours fast between the meals, just for variety, not to get my body used to the same regime and to shock it from time to time so my metabolism to be speeded.
I really want to come to your yoga center and spend sometime there, full of positive thoughts and vibration. After seeing your videos I came to Coimbatore and visited Isha and was lucky enough to get a glimpse of our Sadguru speaking. 🙏🙏🙏🙏
Love the chanting! I agree with the guru’s lecture.
