Going 187 days without binging, that’s amazing!!! People who don’t have BED won’t understand how much self discipline it takes to achieve that!! Proud of you!!
Well said ketogorl, it is truly amazing. I have first-hand experience how much discipline it takes to combat the demons of BED. I applaud you too Jerome 👏 🙌
Here my stats for May fasting challenge: I lost 18.6 LBS. Completed 2 extended fasts (averaging 143 hours each). Worked out for 10 days (averaging 23.5 minutes per session) with average volume lifted 4,383 LBS per day. Walked an average of 8060 steps per day. Slept an average of 6.4 hours. Thanks Gerome for starting this challenge 🙏🏾
@@lolosavage71 - I turn off my phone at midnight. I find technology will keep me alert at night tricking me to think I’m wide awake when I’m actually just bored. Then all that’s left is to snuggle up to my hubby - I fall asleep in minutes.
started a 48 hour fast and rolled into 70 hour fast 2 hour feeding window, now on my 6th in a row, went from 273lb and today 245lb I also went from 57-inch waist to 53 1/2-inch waist today, I am doing carnivore diet and I feel great, and I'll keep rolling the 72s I feel I can do it forever at this moment😀
I'm doing 120 hour fast. I'm two days into my 3rd 120. On the 6th day, when I break my fast, I eat one meal, some nuts, and start my fast again. The weight is falling off. I love this method! Thanks Jerome and AHA!!!
Yes, I am doing the 65s! ..but this next fast will be 50 hours due to an upcoming event I will be eating at. ..Then back to 65s. 🤗. ..your videos bring so much inspiration!
I’m varying my fasting for May, so I fast for 16, 60, and 72 hours. I’m currently almost 4 hours into a 60-hour fast. I do strength training 3 x a week and walk most days. I’ve lost 4 kilos since the 4 May. My NSVs include reduced oedema in my legs and feet which makes walking less painful, lost inches, better sleep (6-8 hours), clearer thinking, and more energy. I’ve discovered that committing to fasting leads to other goals. For example, I go to bed earlier instead of tv binging and I drink more water. Thank you, Jerome.
@@josi8125❤ I love how supportive you are to all these commenters🎉 bless you because it really helps knowing someone has your back and is encouraging you All the way. You are awesome ❤
I started my fast May 4th ( the 4th was with me😂) my weight was 238.8. I broke my 92 hour fast May 8th and refed for two hours..I weighed 232..then I started my next 96 hours fast . This morning ( May 11th) I weighed 227.6 pounds. I'm 65 hours in to my 96 hour fast and my next refeed is around noon Sunday. I will continue these 96 hour fasts until I reach 180 pounds...I am 6'2" and I am 59 years old... its never too late to change yourself for the better! Thank you Jerome for you have given me the inspiration to keep going! 😁🖐🤟
Very good advice. I use the Zero fasting app. Started May 1 and made it 145 hours, then ate about 1000 calories keto, restarted time and am currently around 100 hours. Will eat tomorrow.
I'm in! (DR45s/65S/72S + 1HR REFEED) GW: 110-120 lbs (05/01/24) SW: 198 lbs (05/07/24) CW: 190 lbs Fast #1: 60 Hr (05/3/24) Fast #2: 48 Hr 50 Min (05/05/24) Fast #3: 26 Hr 15 Min (05/06/24) Fast #4: 25 Hr 52 Min (05/07/24) Fast #5: 28 Hr 20 Min (05/08/24) Fast #6: 14 Hr 18 Min (05/09/24) Fast #7: 23 Hr 50 Min (05/10/24)
I had lost 16 pounds! But…it’s my birthday week…so I’m up a little. It’s not big deal, after tonight’s dinner with my children, I’m right back on plan. It’s ok to take a break for life! I have about 20 pounds yet to lose. I’m thrilled with my progress and can’t wait to be at my goal! Thx for the support!
Update on May fasting. Completed a 94 hr fast and down to 206.4. starting weight was 218.6 lbs. Goal is 150 lbs. I workout 2 to 3 times whole body lifting with 30 minutes cardio on treadmill. Refed and starting a 91 hour fast. Gonna keep alternating fasting times with my work schedule and break when I have days off from work. Keeping motivated and consistent focusing on goals and self improvement.
Thanks so much. Quick question do you know if there is any harm to your body doing water fasts, I know the pros do you know if there’s any cons or any proven issues you can get from water fasting ? Thanks so much
Current weight 138.0 Goal weight:137-138 45 hr walks 5-6 days a week May 8th:138.2 lbs Broke my fast at 67 hrs May 9th: 139.6 May10th:138.0 broke my fast today at 45 hrs Currently 8 hrs in to another 67-69 hr fast Once I truly hit 137 I will start doing 44-45 hr fasts with maybe 1 67-69 hr fast sprinkled in here and there. **Glad you're still channeling the 76ers and trusting the process Jerome!! Your perspective on the weight plateau is so much healthier this time around.. Keep moving forward!! At the end of May you'll be back at 138!! Consistency and patience is definitely key.
I'm doing 2 days of eating, 5 day fasting starting weight 140 now 135. I have 3 weeks to go. I really don't want to be under 130 but I'm going to keep fasting till the end of May to see what happens. I lost 100 pounds fasting last year so I'm experience, somewhat.
@thespear4083 Thanks, I'm a female. My weight was 241 jan 2023 and 140 by Jan 2024 .Goal weight 130 . Remember to use everyday staying on track because the days move fast.
Amazing job! Truly inspirational! You're proof that consistency works. You must feel amazing. I have a 68lb weight loss goal and doing 90ish hour fasting windows. Lost 12 lbs so far in May. Gonna keep rolling until goal.
Current stats: 6’3” 310lbs Doing rolling fasts since April 9th. Down 33.5lbs in one month. Moving towards 185 (weight when I played varsity basketball)
@@Bot28111 I’m averaging a 22 hour fast. I’m only eating one meal of Whole Foods. Am example is 10 ounces of 80/20 hamburger meat with diced onions, tomatoes, and jalapenos with a 10 ounce sweet potato with butter, and ten ounces of banana. I salt my food liberally. I drink a lot of black coffee, and if I get hungry (usually around 6pm) I drink a Topo Chico which is a carbonated mineral water with no calories.
Just finishing my 1st 65! Since January I’ve been doing OMAD and ADF so this just felt like the next step. Started Wednesday afternoon and just rocked out with water and black coffee straight thru - down 5lbs and it feels exhilarating! Will start rolling again after Mother’s Day brunch! 💪🏽
Hey Jerome, I'm priming right now, I'll be jumping back into the fasting soon. I think I will do better fasting after my two weeks of priming. I'm doing the 30 day carnivore challenge. Over all I'm pleased with my progress, It's slow but consistent. I haven't given up. I haven't stopped trying. Noting that a little more walking can't help. I really need to be more consistent in walking more. I'm looking forward to fasting again.
@@pamelapollard2678 I love the priming. I wished I'd known about priming 20 years ago. I wasn't familiar with carnivore back then. And yes; it makes it much more easier to fast cause I'm rarely hungry. The most important perks that I'm experiencing are mentally and physically. My skin has improved significantly, I feel stronger and have lots of energy. Priming is really meant to correct or reset the body to a normal metabolic state. My sleep is also great and I'm dreaming and waking up refreshed. Today will be my 28 day. I will be doing my first fast tomorrow.It's 23 hours long, with a one-hour window for eating. The month of June will take me into longer rolling fast, I'm also a type O positive so carnivore works well with my blood type. Yes, I'm loosing weight too. But I know I will be loosing more once I jump back into the rolling fast.
I decided to try a 36 hour fast since it’s been a couple years since I was doing OMAD- I ended up going over 80 hours with minimal difficulty. Started feeling nauseous on the 4th day and salts weren’t helping so I decided to go ahead and break but was proud I had made it that far. I lost about 6 pounds in 3 days, even after refeeding (under 1,000 cals as I find fasting shrinks my stomach and controls my appetite) I still had more loss when I weighed the next day. I had been stuck at 185 for the longest and finally got down to 172!!! I didn’t know about the rolling fast method when I first got into fasting but I think it’s a great balance if you want to fast more than just OMAD but can’t/ dont want to go through a week long + fast. Thanks for the tips!
From 3 years ago being able to fast 4 days like it was nothing.. i am currently unable to complete a 48 hour fast.. my fasting muscle is broken.. i only eat 1 meal a day and maintain my weight at 90kg.. i need to lose 10kg but i cant seem to fast long anymore no matter how many times i try
Keep trying It took me two months of starting overly ambitious fasts and breaking early before I finally backed off a bit, set much more realistic goals, and THEN started extending the fast...a little at a time Keep at it, build your fasting up slowly
@KrisHarrisMajin I know how you feel. I would say you are in the right channel.. i find there is times i’m ready, and times im not… Just keep pushing, and keep itching to WANT to do it.
Just got back from a Disney vacation with my family. I walked quite a bit but did not fast while I was on vacation and enjoyed all the foods. I got back home and I am about six pounds up from where I was before the vacation. I hit the start button on my fasting app and am back on track. Not going to let a little weight gain from a vacation deter me from my goals. Back on track and back to fasting. Let’s go
Wow what an incredible video. This is resonating with me so much. I'm about to listen again. I'm in the midst of Fast #1 for my May consistentcy challenge. I'm doing 65 hours for this first cycle. I'm 49.5 hours in and will refeed at 430pm today. My water fast is a modified fast to include small sips of pickle juice when needed and unsweetened green tea. That has made the difference for me with being able to hang in this long. I've been walking daily. I haven't reached the 10k goal yet. Yesterday I got 5608 steps, the day prior in the 7000's. I'm three days free of binge/emotional eating and compulsive food app ordering. I've been replacing the unhealthy comfort activity with other things like walking, creating, etc. Finances - Sticking to budget, 3rd day completed
I'm having such a hard time getting passed 24 hrs of fasting. It's like I keep thinking about the food, the cravings are so bad. I'm really trying hard though, I'm gonna keep trying. I started out 2 years ago at 455 lbs, I lost 100 lbs in a year and I've been at a plateau for a year. I'm so ready to move on and speaking of which, I'm about to hit that timer..
Completing 3rd fast 95 hr/eat 1 hr fast - 10 lbs - seem to be just sticking within couple lbs of this weight, but feel good. Doing 2- 10 mile rides a week and will increase other workouts.
Thank you Jerome for supporting and motivating the FF community with your video messages. I have played the video 3 times now, as listening to what you say has a positive impact on my mindset, that needs a complete overhaul. It is about learning from mistakes and ultimately 'evove and adapt'. I am soldering on and working towards reaching Onederland. You are very much appreciated. ❤
Hit the TIMER! Trust the PROCESS! BE HONEST with yourself! I’m still being consistent losing a pound a day with rolling fast. Need to amp up my workouts.
@@dariamoon4895 its the first wheb jr not fat adapted trust me i lost 100 pounds in 30 days doing omad in 2018 then my metabolisim dropped now diff approach
Love your consistent inspiration, Jerome! I've been consistent with my low-carb OMADs since May 1. My only bump in the road is having to have a couple of small snacks the last 2 days with meds, but I've kept them low-carb so I don't feel bad about doing what I had to do. I'll be right back to strict OMAD as soon as I'm finished with the meds (hopefully tomorrow).
@@FinallyFastingYou're big inspiration I lost 30ibs in a month because of your advice. I am going to continue until early August when I will reach 180ibs. Thank you 😊
Age 45 Ht 5'0" Starting weight 125 lbs Current weight 129 lbs Goal weight 108 lbs 2MAD or OMAD 20 min pilates twice last week and a 30 min weight/HIIT session Not the best check in, my current weight is after a big mother's day buffet dinner. I enjoyed myself but I tend to eat too much at buffets because i want to TRY EVERYTHING even though I'm not hungry. As a result of my gluttony i felt a bit short of breath and nauseous afterwards. And I'm further away from my pre-baby goal weight. 😅 Going forward I want to try an extended fast (36 or 48 hours) by the end of this month. I'm so inspired by all your successes sorry nothing much to report here
All that matters is that you got back on the horse. By the end of May, one day won’t matter because you’ll be closer to your goal weight. Happy Mother’s Day.
@@thespear4083 Yes, true, as Jerome said in this video it's okay to be imperfect in our fasts. Thanks for the Mother's Day wishes. Happy Mother's Day to your mother and, if you're a mom, to you 😊
He uses ZERO. Tracking your fasts are free but if you want to join groups and save custom fasts they charge you. I use it too - I only use the app to track my fasts so I don’t need to pay for it.
Although I am not doing the prolonged fasting this week (due to tha girlie time of the month, so not wise to fast) I am still trying to at least stick to OMAD. Will go back to rolling fasts this coming week until the end of the month. Not getting back on the scale until then either. Dont want to be disappointed. Just taking this time to nourish my body and give it what it needs this week.🙏🏾 🙏🏾
Great content! I was stuck at 87kg from 105kg eating carnivore since april this year. Switched to prolonged fast with unrestricted refeeds since the 14th of July, with 5 prolonged fasts (64 hours avg), down to 82 kg now. Feeling great! My tip to curb hunger >>> Yerba Mate works wonders, I have it once a day, it keeps me satiated. My goal is 80kg, I'll have to reassess my strategy next week to either continue on prolonged fasts or go on OMAD or an hybrid of OMAD/prolonged fast. I am in uncharted waters now :)
Hi i m new on your channel. And new have fasted 24 hrs before. I m 38 yr old nurse at 147lb weight with 5.3 hight. I want to be at 125 lb as my ideal weight. Could you Please guide me??all experienced faster.. appreciate your advice❤️😍🫶🏻
Ah man this oxalate dumping is killing me, completed a 7 day fast last week, re-fed over 1.5 days (first day just broth, kimchi, avocado & prawns and some charcuterie), Day 2 back to Carnivore - the last 3 days had excruciating pain in my back, heel and eyes. It passed and felt invincible. Started a 5 day on Monday, (will break today), and more oxalate dumping (started yesterday), this time excruciating hip pain on the other side. I know I can mitigate this by the eating the tiniest portion of oxalate foods or black tea but I'd rather let nature run its course and get rid. Was not expecting to have another episode so quickly....but better out than in. Plan to refeed over 2 days again. Not sure what I want to do fast wise next week, maybe 48 or72hrs.Will cross that bridge when I get to it. Best of luck every one
Just finished up my 3rd fast for May. Refeeding and then starting the 4th. The first 24 hrs will be dry and then I'll finish off the remaining 40+hrs with water. 🤜🤛
