    I've been eating one meal a day for a bit more than 15 years. It wasn't a plan. I've never been a breakfast eater, and I got really busy with work and started skipping lunches and enjoying a meal in the evening. I liked eating this way and decided to stick with it. Everyone in my life tells me that I am going to get nutritional deficiencies and that I am damaging my body. I'm trim. I'm fit. I'm never sick. They are all mostly overweight and taking prescribed meds for various ailments. To appease everyone, I had a physical checkup and had blood work done. My blood work was perfect, but the doctor referred me to a nutritionist when I told him about my one meal a day eating. I met the nutritionist. She was horrified by my eating style. My main sources of calories are potatoes and beans. I eat all varieties of potatoes and all the varieties of beans. I make a huge pot of beans from dry beans every week. Freeze half of it and eat the other half during the week with steamed potatoes (I cut them up before steaming). My main condiment is salsa. I also usually toss a small handful of walnuts on top before I sit down to eat. Sometimes I add other veggies like broccoli, mushrooms or bok choy to the pot of steaming potatoes, but for most meals it's just potatoes and beans with salsa and walnuts. My desert is usually just a piece of fruit if I have it, which can be an orange, an apple or a bowl of berries. I drink water, nothing else. No booze. No juices. No coffee. No soda. The nutritionist gave me a bunch of literature about meal planning. She wanted me to eat three meals a day and include dairy products in my diet. She was nice and seemed genuinely concerned about me, but she was also fat. I didn't adopt any of her advice. It's two years later. I'm still healthy, fit, and trim and enjoying potatoes and beans. Everyone in my life is still telling me that I am going to get sick. After 15+ years, maybe tomorrow is the day.

    My daughter, age 11, is never hungry in the morning - so she doesn't want breakfast and I have never forced her to eat. I think by forcing kids to eat at a certain time (or finishing their plate) we send the message that they should ignore their hunger cues, which is a bad long-term strategy for eating competency as they grow up.

      Good for you! I was a terrible eater as a child. Terrible according to adults' criteria. I was having a reduced appetite, I used to wait until the food was at a tolerable temperature, I was chewing slowly until everything would become a paste and, if in the morning, I was always waiting until my tongue was awake too (this was one way of saying it, not knowing that, indeed, systems and organs do take time to wake up)... and so on and so forth. I guess I knew intuitively what I was supposed to do.

    I've lost 155 lbs over the last year and a half. I'm on day 30 of a water fast to eliminate the last of my excess fat and skin. In the last month 25 lbs have melted away and I feel great. 18 months ago I was 375 lbs watching CZcams videos of people who overcame obesity and thinking "I wish I could do that." I'm now reaching the shape I was in in my early 20s. I started all this when I turned 61. You can do this. Keto and intermittent fasting are key.

      Making a healthy lifestyle change can undo the impacts of an unhealthy life style.

By including a cheat day into your lifestyle, but that doesn't encourage you to go overboard, you can still enjoy the occasional burger with fries, pizza, etc.

    “Self imposed scarcity”.
    When I got my sense of control of what I put into my body, and my habits, it was with fasting.
    My in my head mantra was “it will still be there tomorrow.” “There’s plenty”. There’s no scarcity in my mindset. Be it food, money, health. So, I don’t have to smash and grab anything.
    I’m mentally living in abundance.

    I started IF in November 2018. I was going through a real personal disaster, feeling lost, completely low. I found it on youtube and on a whim, I just did a 18hr fast and guess what "nothing happened". I experimented and got to 20:4 pretty fast even with work and everything. Since then, I have recommended it to many people I care about. I agree with all the benefits but as a layman:
    1. My confidence in my own body has gone up exponentially. I am more grateful for my health, I am extremely tuned into the feedback from my body.
    2. My will power has gone up.
    3. I now have added about an hour of meditation daily.
    4. I have since graduated to cold showers, running marathons and ultras, and to entrepreneurship.
    It is freedom, good health, gratitude, confidence, will power, everything. Once you realize what an exquisite piece of machinery this body really is, you treat it better and you treat yourself better and that reflects in everything else that you do.

I pointed out the the national average is obese here in the states so maybe the easiest way to fix the system is to quit basing it off broken averages and baselines so the system doesn't keep contributing to the problem. I could tell in a moment, I hurt the ego of this doctor, but in a split second, you could see the light come on. Our visits became far more beneficial instead of the typical superficial.

    First day, 16 hours. Second day, 18 hours. Now, I’m at 45 hours and counting. Five pounds lost already. Lots of energy. Very clear mind. Slight headache, but I’ve been trying to up the electrolytes for that. Can’t believe how good I feel without food. And the hunger isn’t bad. It comes in waves, but it’s nothing I can’t handle. It’s so much easier to do this than calorie counting or portion control, and neither of those things ever work for me. I’m almost positive it’s because I’ve been insulin resistant. I’ve had a couple of tests where the doctors have said said my liver enzymes are “off,” too. Don’t know what that means, but I bet I have fatty liver. Going to see how long I can keep this fast and clean up that liver, my gut, kidneys, and everything else. Thanks to both of you for these videos on fasting.

    One of the most unexpected benefits of fasting for me, has been clarity and ease about giving things up. Addicted to food and sugar for my entire life, when I began fasting, there was a deep change inside of me that no longer felt the need to hold on to things. It’s been a very spiritually transitional experience. Never in my life could someone have convinced me that I could train my body to go without eating. Even now, after practicing fasting for a couple of years, I’ll set a goal of 24 hours, then find if I just go to bed a little earlier, which is important anyways, I can get an extra 8-12 hours easily. When I’m to that point, I’m usually no longer hungry at all and know I can fast indefinitely. That is a miracle for me. I should mention I am a type 2 diabetic. I often tell people one of the greatest benefits of fasting for me is the weight loss, not in pounds, it’s not my goal, normal blood sugar is my goal, but in the weight of STUFF I throw out or donate and even negative relationships!!! It’s so freeing!!! Fasting is one of the greatest blessings of my lifetime for hundreds of reasons. I study at great length about what foods to break my fasts for health. I use a fasting app because there’s something for me, about pressing that button. I always feel a bit anxious about any extended fast and then ALWAYS find it easier than I anticipated. I stay busy during my extended fasts, even planning projects. Hunger is all in my mind. My mind is more hungry than my body and in fact, I now love the feeling of hunger. I also know drinking that water keeps me from feeling hungry and if I do feel hunger, it’s because I haven’t drank enough. If I feel truly hungry, I eat because the body knows what it needs. It’s listening to my body, not my mind. My mind is hungry 24/7 lol.

      @@Cekatu I use an app mainly to keep me focused on the fast. I maintain at least a 16/8, but my average has been 19.4 hours - another benefit of an app, historical data.
      I only eat when I am hungry, so I am not strict about when I begin fasting or when I stop other than I keep a minimum of 16 hours per day and I don't eat after 7pm. The app helps me keep track of how long I have been fasting. It also tracks water intake, which good for me because I tend to forget to drink if I don't have a reminder.
      I use Fastic. It is the only one I ever used so I can't compare it to any other.

We lost weight and then because of a very crazy situations got off this pattern of eating one meal/day. We are back on it since January 2024 and immediately we have lost 15 pounds, clothes are more comfortable and it is so amazing to just eat all the healthiest food and realize it is less expensive!

I have read several articles over the years that ice water revs up your metabolism so you are loosing weight just by its Intake. Sadhguru also says that your intention and thought has the ability to change the structure of the water molecules. Look it up. It is true. So as you pour your water have good thoughts towards the water. The water fills your stomach so you don't feel hunger. If you have to eat try a fruit. The fiber is good for you and more. Hope this helps. I started returning to my previous ways of eating only dinner. The weight is coming off. One more important thing. First thing in the morning make neem and turmeric balls and consume with TEPID honey water. You will thank me for that later. Look it up on CZcams. If you don't want to make your own.

Well so is illness. So is paying that pharmacy bill. And that hospital bill.

As they got older I have gone back to fasting and feel much better. I actually think that I messed my system up by going back to the three meals a day. The thing is fasting was not popular at that time and I wasn't sure if it was ok. I wish I would have just kept listening to myself. Fasting fits me so well.

If you don’t workout and you eat a certain amount of calories and switch to working out but eating the same, guess what that’s a calorie deficit aswell since you’re using more energy than usual and need more energy stores to make up for the extra energy being used. I’ve seen many eating styles and they all can work for different people depending on goals. I’ve seen professional dieticians and nutritionist recommended being on a deficit and fasting has been done since recorded history. Fasting is muscle sparring.

I knew something was off even if my bloods were normal. One day I told my doctor to do an insulin check-up. He calls me the next day panicking and tells me I have severe insulin resistance. Being a health professional, I knew it is a bad sign. I usually fast one month per year as a Muslim but I always gained weight in Ramadhan due to eating sweets and feasting big upon breaking my fast. And it wasn't until Dr. Pradip mentioned how to properly fast did it all connect because it's the FREQUENCY, TYPE OF FOOD, AND SUGARS that got me badly. Doing intermittent fasting this way changed everything and everyone is shocked by how my pear-shaped body is going back to that lean muscular look I used to have. I had a great physique before but the mid-gut region was a mess from all the inflammation, bloating and indigestion. I've been 2 months now and dropped weight like I never thought was possible.

      Davina Gray-the previous comment praised the doctor for loving his job and his patients. Then you said negative things about those patients and their habits. The key to this doctor’s success is that he recognizes there are many psychological causes for overeating, sometimes because of trauma and abuse that were no fault of the patient. Also, some people are genetically prone to secrete more insulin and store more fat. If doctors are to help their patients, they must be able to put judgment and sense of superiority aside and work with the metabolic problems people have. This doc is great! Follow his example.

    I’ve fasted 1 to 7 days as needed to lose weight. The hunger and addiction should be tolerated by motivated persons. I gained weight when stressed and over worked to the point of not exercising. I was born in 1958 and I learned not to tell anybody, dietitians, doctors or family about fasting to lose weight… they all said that is the wrong thing to do. I’m so glad that fasting is better accepted. After day one I’m not hungry. There is a serenity, euphoria and satisfaction with a fast of several days.

    The only person who sounds like you in your humanism and nobility of purpose is Dr Stern Eckberg. May you live long and be exemplary to others in your field. The most straight and honest 2 I have the blessings to come across.

    I can confirm, that my skin looks amazing even after weightloss. I feel energized, fit, healthy & happy. Fasting is indeed healing. Not only your body, but your soul is blooming. I feel a.m.a.z.i.n.g.

    Dr. Jamnadas... You saved my life, I accidentally found you and thought I'll give it a try. I was 230lbs, now 211. Never thought it was possible, tried everything. It has become my way of life, thank you Sir🙏🏽

    I just adore this man, watching this again, have been weak about eating lunch and that's it. I really don't need the food, the psychological aspect of not eating is hard for me. I love Pradip Jamnadas.

    One of the best videos on fasting! Dr Pradip is so excited like a child to help the humanity. Video by Dr William Lee on cancer/foods/immunotherapy was also awesome. Thank you Dr Chatterjee for bringing such people to your channel.
