The thing about varying the fasts is that I’m afraid to allow myself to eat more some days; worried that I will never have the mental/emotional strength to go back to fasting afterward. This aspect is almost never addressed. For many of us, intermittent fasting is the only thing that has worked for losing weight, and it’s scary to think of eating more, even if intellectually it makes sense. It would be good to know how to train our minds to be more flexible. I realize this is an enormous subject, but just wanted to put it out there, as this is an issue I’ve been facing in my own life.
Yes! 100% percent with you. It's been a struggle all my life. It's either I'm in 100% or if I give in a little, there's no turning back. It's an all or nothing mentally and at 42 It's still a struggle.
I’m 73 yo and I’m still, all or nothing. Been strictly, clean, Keto LCHF 1-1/2 years. If I were to eat one serving of bread or ice cream I would be off to the races because I can’t do moderation.
You are so right! It’s correct in theory. But challenging in real life. For me, to be consistent with my fasting until it becomes easy is the first priority.
This is what happened to me. I have been intermittent fasting for several years now without much variation and at one point I wasn’t losing any weight (even though I was overweight) while consuming around 1200 kcal a day. Now I started varying my fasts, adding longer ones and feasting days and I’m losing weight again. I also have more energy during the day and my gut is happy 😊
I have lost 90 lbs from March 4 2020 and still going strong I'm so glad I found out about fasting for loosing weight and getting healthy I couldn't walk not even 5 minutes now on days I walk for an hour or 3 to 4 miles so thank you for all your help and I also helping my family to live longer cause they looking at me and my results my weight when I started was 304 and now I weight 214 ❤❤💚🇬🇹💛💋💋
I'm 78 and I've been doing keto for 36 months - 2 and half years - and quickly lost 45 lbs in less than 6 months. 220 down to 175 and am able to maintain that weight easily on OMAD. I'm pretty sure I am a well established fat burner because I get through my day with calm steady energy. I wont even eat a piece of cake at a birthday party because I know it will mess up my clear minded, productive state of being. But, YES, I notice a long term 'staleness' effect and instinctively want to vary my OMAD routine. I do some 48 and occasional 72 hour fasts but have been reluctant to push fasting harder because the visceral fat is not going away and my arms and legs have been weakening. I've been increasingly aware of that 'stuckness' for about a year. So the breakthrough came from your recent metabolic switching video. I am combining weight training while fasted for about 14 hours followed by stimulation of mTOR with 5 small protein meals as you suggested. I just did my third, twice weekly, workout today - squats, deadlifts, and presses. I can feel my digestive system is over the moon with the small protein meals. The only one that hasn't felt wonderful was a kidney bean salad which I suspect was harder for the body to get at the protein quickly. So immediately after lifting I have 20 gr of protein in a protein powder shake, three eggs at noon, next some salmon or prawns, followed by another 20 gr protein from almond butter, and finally about 160 gr (ie about 40 gr protein) steak or a pork chop at 8:30 PM. I definitely want more by then and so the second half of the nut butter gets added and maybe another shot of protein powder. That's a feast to me, and maybe it is just right. I don't gain weight doing it and I sleep well and am able to resume my OMAD routine the next morning with no increased hunger. I suspect that it is partly because I am so habituated to OMAD and perhaps because the mTOR switching using protein doesn't reactivate any craving for glucose. I'll experiment with mixing it up more going forward. Thanks.
Ever since I've done intermittent fasting, I've noticed a marked improvement in my overall health, but with the encouragement of your videos, I began to experiment with my fasting combined with the keto I'd already been doing and it has stepped up my weight loss. In fact, for about a month during the holidays I relaxed my keto, but went back later and lost 13 pounds in the first week. I look at the constant change as a mild form of hormesis for my body. Thanks for the encouragement.
This was very helpful and encouraging for me! After the fast training week a few weeks ago I came to love the 20:4 fast. My weight loss has stalled some and now I know how important it is to change up my fasts!!!! Thanks Dr Mindy for always keeping us informed 👍🏻
Thank you so much for this video....lost 60 pounds and all the sudden no loss....must have been fasting too much all the time....i will use the tips for sure...much appreciated!
It's really hard after omad to eat twice in one day again. I need this tho and will do it this weekend.. then omad again. Feeling fantastic after 5 months of keto and if. Tks doc.
If you are comfortable at OMAD there is not reason to go back to two or more meals. If you want variation, change up the size of your meal, some days a huge feast and others a more "just enough" meal. You could also toss in a 48 hour now and then. It took a lot of hard work to get to OMAD. No need to toss that.
@@robinbeers6689 I agree; also just eating once a day but not necessarily always at the same time. The way I understand it, the body needs variety in our eating to stay on its' toes.
Very Helpful. Just had to do OMAD for about a month to get unstuck with weight loss. (It worked.) Will work on variation now. Dr. Mindy, I appreciate that you do so much to NOT align with toxic diet culture.
Great information again Dr Mindy! I am losing weight with IF and as a bonus my insomnia issues have resolved...I sleep like a baby and have energy throughout the day. It's literally been life changing. Thank you and keep up the good work. Lots of love from Zambia, Africa! ❤
Fasting, and utilizing the specific tips in this video, have led to an 80+ lbs weight loss, 4 clothing sizes smaller, and zero grey hairs and negative saggy/wrinkly skin. It is a complete lifestyle for me and I will never stop varying fasting protocols.
🙏🏼💕 I respect you and your heart and mission so much. You're a treasure on earth. Thank you for giving your life to try to help people and leave the planet a better place than it was when you arrived on it. You're acts of giving and service to the public are so beautiful.
Just getting strtd on here. So far I am amazed & soo thankful for a female Dr who is not only knowledgeable, but understands all the intricacies of pre & post & menopausal woman. I am eager to get over these insane symptoms! Thank you in advance you & your awesomeness! Wish I knew you 10 yrs ago!💕
Love your time stamps in your video descrptions! Makes watching your video super efficient, and I watch a lot more of your videos Because They're so easy to watch and get the info I need.
Hi Dr. Thanks, I am glad that I found the answer in this one video instead of having to watch 5 doctors over 10 videos. My method is going to the gym twice a week and eating more on those days.
Dr Mindy You are better than all the begs and eckberg put together. No one told me this. Kept OMAD fasting like a fool and the last 5 kgs not getting off whatever I humanly can do. I'm following this for next 2 months and let's see what happens
Dr Mindy- I would love to see a video addressing the psychological Side of fasting. With regards to coming off the fast, mentally struggling with food, possibly binge eating disorder or just over eating. I personally have been fasting on and off for many years, but I have to be incredibly mindful of my thoughts around food. Lately I have been trying to find the data, or research out there around people’s relationship with food after fasting... just curious if you have anything! Thank you for all the work and information you put out. I really appreciate reading the studies you share. 💗
I have faithfully listened to your videos every week for almost a year now and while I find the content and the intention very inspiring, both my daughter and I have put on 10+ lbs doing lchf - even carnivore. I cannot seem to do Omad. I just wind up with a headache or so lethargic I need to lie down by mid afternoon so 24 hours or longer is out of the question. Every day I wake up and say I’m going to try harder and by 5pm I’ve broken my rules and then I give up cuz I have to make dinner for my family. Im sick of looking pregnant at almost 60 years of age but I just can’t lose any weight no matter what I do.
I have looked at IF for several years and inconsistently tried it. For me it was easier to NOT eat than constantly worry about what to eat, when, how, where, etc. But, true to form with me - I took it and made it difficult.
Thank you for this!! So relevant to me! I have healed in the past through fasting ( 3, 7 then 21 day water fasts) but then Did slow down my metabolism drastically by (mis-)applying my fasts too much.. Now i seem to fat if i eat beyond 100 ckals a day no matter what i eat ..
Thank you for sharing !! Dr. Mindy, I drink Matcha green tea and I totally enjoy it with no sweeteners and I also enjoy Moringa green tea. I drink the Moringa tea for all of it's benefits. What is your opinion on drinking the Moringa tea while fasting 🤔. Thank you for your response in advance. Have a wonderful weekend 😉
I love you and I am so grateful for this page. Since I applied fast/feasting techniques, I lost 31lbs since nov, it may not seem like a lot but I feel so much better and I love that I am wearing smaller clothes 😁.
Drawbacks of fasting. Just getting over the worst outbreak of fever blisters I have ever had. I found some different posts that said autophagy fasting can cause the Herpes virus to trigger other that said it will heal them faster. I upped my Vit C and Zinc and bought some resveratrol. Seems to have help stop the next wave that was starting. Hopefully this was one of those it got bad to get better as my body heals fasting side effects.
Can you talk a little bit about the affects of fasting and hormones? I'm reading like you mentioned in so many books how it's not good for hormonal balance.
Being in ketosis permanently does not slow your metabolism. Metabolic flexibility is good but it is lost by being a permanent sugar burner not by being a permanent fat burner. I totally agree that when you eat you should seriously eat. Doing OMAD is only "deprivation mode" if you are a sugar burner used to multiple small meals. If you do one big carnivore feast per day, this is not deprivation mode at all.
What if you have a large amount of weight to lose and are NOT intermittent fasting but doing a weekly 3-4 day water fast? Does that run the risk of slowing metabolism down in the long term?
Can u explain more on metabolic switching that is between feasting and famine. How it improves insulin sensitivity and suppresses inflammation. Thanks.
Dr am fasting Monday to Friday for 24 hours every week and I eat regular on Saturday’s n Sundays. Is this a good style? Am in my late 50s. Love you Doc...!!!
Dr. Jason Fung: It’s not about calories. It’s about insulin. Reducing calories but not reducing insulin results in metabolic slowdown. Reducing calories and insulin does not.
Yes I m losing weight and gaining muscles with fasting und low carb diet, now after approximately 2 months after my body respond to fasting and little metabolic flexible
I agree with you Dr Mindy 100%.God bless you, you are amazing 💪💪💪 Actually I follow your tips that you mentioned in another previous video about vary the system of fasting style and don't stick into a fixed number of hours fasting every day,and benefit from blessing healthy food.
Only reason that would occur is if you’re not meeting your Maintenance level in calories. You can absolutely meet that in long fasts. Just eat caloric nutrient dense food. Fasting gets a knock on it for this idea that metabolism changes because of the act of fasting when it’s all about the food. Eat better and metabolism will still improve
Thanks this really helps I've been doing keto for a while now and have been stuck at a certain weight I've learner I need to carb cycle and fast cycle.
I asked a question when this video came out and I have not seen any response 🙄. My question is, what are your thoughts about Moringa tea while fasting 🤔. Thank you 😉✌
What is the best way to repair your metabolism if fasting incorrectly (fasting/bingeing) has done damage to the metabolism and now you're weight loss resistent no matter what you try?
Hello dr.Mindy! New subbie here. Can I fast during breastfeeding? My little one is 5.5 month old. I have arthritis, and chronic constipation, bloating, and I have 8 kilo to release,. I would love to cleanse my body by fasting but worried about if it affects my milk supply. Thanks for an amazing videos
It sure messed mine up, but I realized I was eating less than 800 calories on 16:8 did that for 3 months and lost nothing! Messed up my hormones instead!
I’m 43 eating one meal a day every single day since august 2019. I’m at my ideal weight of 157lb and I eat my ovo medi-Keto-biotic vegetarian diet, with sardines/mackerel/salmon/oysters once or twice a week. Should I not fast e dry single day OMADe (one meal a day everyday) if everything is working perfect, weight wise, energy wise and well being wise? I ask because as you said in the video, I only eat when I’m hungry, and I simply can’t eat anything due to not be hungry until at least 22 hours in fasting every day. My daily fasting average is 23.4 hours. And it’s been so empowering. So I would prefer not to have days where I don’t fast, because when I’ve done that in the past, I’ve noticed I have more well being when I eat only one large meal a day. I go on daily walks of 6 miles, a lot of vegetables every day. Avocados every day, and super green smoothies every day, including powder super foods like Spirulina, Chlorella, wheat grass etc... In short, if I’m eating 2500 calories every single day in a 1 hour period or less. Having a blast, eating with pleasure and excitement, should I still alter the steady protocol or should I keep listening to my body? I’m open to change but shouldn’t we always listen to our bodies or not necessarily so?
I have lost 45lbs since January 1 2024 by eating one meal a day (keto) and also incorporating 1 long term fast (38-48 hours). Now all of a sudden my body has stopped losing even when keeping this approach. I have about 100 more lbs to lose and I am so discouraged. I've noticed when I let myself have a "feeding" day and eat more calories than I normally would I am always putting back on weight. I am to the point where I don't know if I should starve myself or feed myself. It's all so confusing and frustrating.
The thing about varying the fasts is that I’m afraid to allow myself to eat more some days; worried that I will never have the mental/emotional strength to go back to fasting afterward. This aspect is almost never addressed. For many of us, intermittent fasting is the only thing that has worked for losing weight, and it’s scary to think of eating more, even if intellectually it makes sense.

I am with you! It took me time to make an 24hrs fast..., now if I start eating one day three meals is so difficult to build up again my OMAD
You are so right! It’s correct in theory. But challenging in real life. For me, to be consistent with my fasting until it becomes easy is the first priority.
Me too... had the same issue...
This is what happened to me. I have been intermittent fasting for several years now without much variation and at one point I wasn’t losing any weight (even though I was overweight) while consuming around 1200 kcal a day. Now I started varying my fasts, adding longer ones and feasting days and I’m losing weight again. I also have more energy during the day and my gut is happy 😊
I may try that. I have been doing OMAD for over two years now with only a few lbs lost. Unbelievable it just doesn't work for me I guess.
I have lost 90 lbs from March 4 2020 and still going strong I'm so glad I found out about fasting for loosing weight and getting healthy I couldn't walk not even 5 minutes now on days I walk for an hour or 3 to 4 miles so thank you for all your help and I also helping my family to live longer cause they looking at me and my results my weight when I started was 304 and now I weight 214

Drawbacks of fasting. Just getting over the worst outbreak of fever blisters I have ever had. I found some different posts that said autophagy fasting can cause the Herpes virus to trigger other that said it will heal them faster. I upped my Vit C and Zinc and bought some resveratrol. Seems to have help stop the next wave that was starting. Hopefully this was one of those it got bad to get better as my body heals fasting side effects.
Oh, thank you so much for this video. It's a good time.
Can you talk a little bit about the affects of fasting and hormones? I'm reading like you mentioned in so many books how it's not good for hormonal balance.
Such a perfect analogy.

Being in ketosis permanently does not slow your metabolism. Metabolic flexibility is good but it is lost by being a permanent sugar burner not by being a permanent fat burner. I totally agree that when you eat you should seriously eat. Doing OMAD is only "deprivation mode" if you are a sugar burner used to multiple small meals.

What do you think about autophagy and cancer. Has it an negativ effekt on cancer growth?
Thanks a lot for answering so immediate- like your work
Dr Jason Fung, the ultimate fasting guru himself, has just written a book called "The Cancer Code". You really should read it.

I get worried when I hear this stuff. Iv been fasting for over 3 years now. I do omad. I don't fast on Sundays.
Me too! Been fasting for a year and never thought about my metabolism till now 😣
I would like to participate in the resterer Days starting March 15.🙂love Steff
I appreciate anything on hormones especially hypothyroid with a million food allergies and other allergies.
I’m 43 eating one meal a day every single day since august 2019. I’m at my ideal weight of 157lb and I eat my ovo medi-Keto-biotic vegetarian diet, with sardines/mackerel/salmon/oysters once or twice a week.
Should I not fast e dry single day OMADe (one meal a day everyday) if everything is working perfect, weight wise, energy wise and well being wise?
I ask because as you said in the video, I only eat when I’m hungry, and I simply can’t eat anything due to not be hungry until at least 22 hours in fasting every day. My daily fasting average is 23.4 hours. And it’s been so empowering. So I would prefer not to have days where I don’t fast, because when I’ve done that in the past, I’ve noticed I have more well being when I eat only one large meal a day.
I go on daily walks of 6 miles, a lot of vegetables every day. Avocados every day, and super green smoothies every day, including powder super foods like Spirulina, Chlorella, wheat grass etc...
In short, if I’m eating 2500 calories every single day in a 1 hour period or less. Having a blast, eating with pleasure and excitement, should I still alter the steady protocol or should I keep listening to my body?
I’m open to change but shouldn’t we always listen to our bodies or not necessarily so?
I have lost 45lbs since January 1 2024 by eating one meal a day (keto) and also incorporating 1 long term fast (38-48 hours). Now all of a sudden my body has stopped losing even when keeping this approach. I have about 100 more lbs to lose and I am so discouraged. I've noticed when I let myself have a "feeding" day and eat more calories than I normally would I am always putting back on weight. I am to the point where I don't know if I should starve myself or feed myself. It's all so confusing and frustrating.
Dr Mindy might suggest testing for heavy metals. That might be stopping your weight loss.
I would like to get information on the Forever Immune program.
