the more interesting question is why would some play it in the first place, imo.
quit for obvious reasons:
-it's antisocial
-its not interesting

im at 37 hours atm. Trying to get to 72kg down from 78kg

did you read the tim ferris book about fasting ?
I think he did first time 10 days fasting and lost a lot of lean mass
then he added walking for few hours a day and lost 0% lean mass during a 7 day fasting, pretty insane if true

right now im doing keto diet and I only eat once a day, so everyday im fasting for 23-24 hours
insanely how fast i've been losing fat

no i started doing it on a whim and then researched it while i am fasting. I'm going to go for 6km run/workout today to try and enter ketosis faster. I would be happy with a 7 day fast but im not sure about Day 4 as i have an 8km run scheduled and I will be kinda weak at that point. Gona stop it if the pain/weakness becomes too distracting from my normal work, and there is no point for me to fast if that happens.

Longest fast i've done was an involuntary fast trekking through the himilayas, i lost 10kg over 15 days, didn't eat for the last 4 days and eventually became too weak climb or even walking uphill was insanely tiring.

I only drank water for 15 days once, then I pooped like 2kg of black-shit between day 13-15, apperantly stuff thats been stuck there for years.

Felt fine, "hunger" dissapeared after 2-3 days, was just abit lightheaded and sometimes hard falling asleep with bit of headache.

I got the best social life with poker out of all jobs lol
behind door to door sales, but I hardly had a choice there

But at the expense of moving up as fast as I could that's true. And I'm engaged with the community stream, got skype groups for solvers now meet people IRL


It takes a lot of effort to make poker an interesting job though
And playing on asian apps is just huge for an european


I work 8/9-6/7 every day just on poker with rigid schedule
and then have either gym or social activities almost every day
And do sme extra solving for fun with skype group guys if I come back home sooner

And then I got 1 hour no electronics before sleep where I write down lessons learned things to improve clean and meditate and shit.


Absolutely loving the lifestyle
you could say any job you can do the same it's gonna be 8-7 anyways with normal working hours and commuting added.
But I found when I worked in a bank or sales I'd just be beat tired of interacting with people I didn't choose to interact with but had to and after work you just want to watch a DVD play dota and shit , not really join groups and meet people you really want to actively meet and spend time with

lol what????
whats the science behind that

A guy I respect but when it comes to other stuff was talking about enemas and going to get an actual medical cleanse 2x per year I thought it was mumbo jumbo

And it's really interesting
but fasting doesn't fit with my life approach really
I'm working on steady permanent habits - isn't it a prety big disruption to your regimen when you just stop eating for so long and then eat again, then repeat?

I think what I belived then was that apperantly the body uses tons of energy on the digestive system each day and we are kinda "supposed" to not have abundance of food 24/7 through all the seasons of a year, and fasting for weeks is "normal" pre tribalness/society.

What happends then from the "spare energy" from a rested digestivesystem in combination with body going into ketosis, so it gets all the energy it needs from the fatcells the bodys normal kind of "heal itself" mecanism just goes on steroids.

Sort of like how if u cut your skin it will heal over a few days, body is constantly healing and renewing/repairing itself. Sleep is necessary etc.

Something like that.

If I would try to put it into some silly metaphore, If your body has 60 bits of energy to work with every second say, normally 20 of them goes into the digestive system digesting food, once your body kicks into ketosis and the digestivesystem is resting those 20 spare bits can be used to do other shit, like heal the intestents and skin and such.

And apperantly the theory behind the black shit that came out that smelled like total shit, was normal and usually happends after 11-14 days there around if you rest enough before the gut gets enough rest/heals enough to be able to process that old food thats been stuck there for years.

I dont really remember / dont really know tho ofc anything about the science, this is the rant that came out.

What I can say about it tho was that I was surprioced with how easy it was/how fine I was, and that the black stuff really did start to come out after 2 weeks and I pooped alot of smelly shit after haveing had no poop for over 10 days, and it really stank. My reactionw as kind of "nooo wayyyy this smelly shit was inside of me"

It was based on this guy who was running for many years this fasting retreat in costa rica, where they regularly helped people doing up to 6 month 100% waterfasts.

On that same theory of the giving the body space to heal itself over time with the spare energy from resting the digestive system in combination with just resting all day everyday, taking it slowmo. Can probably have similair effects without the fasting tho, in just learning how to relax.

Nice, i took a nap for 2 hours and woke up feeling quite weak and finding it a little harder to breath

sup man, I read on someones discord that u got hacked, is it true?

not eating for days to reduce weight sounds like the stupidest shit ever. There is a difference between fasting before a surgery or some medical investigation and this.
We are evolved with a body that is getting food regularly and organs cleansing us from toxins.

Reduce your calorie intake + work out. It's not rocket science to live a healthy lifestyle.

you could research a little bit because that's bunch of bs, not eating for days and extending fasting period is going to be the best for fat loss (it ramps up resting metabolism and changes energy pathways to fat burning, extended calorie reduction and regular eating with short fasting periods will decrease your baseline metabolism and keep your fat burning, regenerative processes at bay) also that black evil shit is interesting :D

btw I started with 14-16 fasts and found it quite easy + I liked that fasted feeling so I research a bunch and in no time I was doing 20hr fasts (2 meals) then I progressively felt better and went to 24hrs (1 big healthy meal) and now I am at a point where I am skipping meal ~1-2 days in a week so I go (36-40hr fasts) and its np also I am inspired by longple's black shit of doom and might go longer :D

i tried lower calorie + working out and yes that works but fasting is quicker, don't see ur point.

we are also evolved with a body that can count from one to infinity out loud so why don't u try that.

yes, my stars account got hacked.

3-day water fast.

I'll be doing another water fast in early February to prepare for my vacation with my girlfriend. We're going to an island in Cebu called Malapasqua for 1 week.

I did 5 days and 4 days before
