Fasting and Weight Loss – Solving the Two-Compartment problem

Why intermittent Fasting is a simple solution for weight loss. Body fat is simply a method of storing food energy. When we eat, our body wants to store those calories. When we don't eat (intermittent fasting), our body uses those calories. So, if we want to lose body fat, increase the duration of time that we are not eating. Check out my blog at

    The primary reason diets are promoted imo comes down to the fact that when you diet, companies and gurus can make money off you. Fasting is FREE.

      Make sure and research healthy and science-based dieting. This doctor is a wonderful man to learn from. We ALL should know by Now about the extreme importance of Dumping toxic and disease causing SUGAR.#UGH! BUT, the healthy fats are just as Important. Especially Avoid the processed seed oils, such as canola, peanut, sunflower, soy, ..the list goes on and on. The few good heart- healthy oils include olive, avocado, and coconut oils. The major focus of losing excess weight should be about attaining Good Health!!😉 Good luck, everybody!🤗

    crazy story. my dad lost his drivers license 10 Or so years ago because of the diabetes and it wasn’t safe for him to drive. he basically pulled a cartman. about 2 years ago at the age of 88 he had quit eating and his alzheimers was reaching a terrible point. we thought he was getting ready to die.
    this spring his doctor declared him cured of diabetes. he is 90 now
    so this week I discovered this lecture series and it answered some things we didn’t understand.
    1. 10 years ago he weighed 230lb, he now weighs under 180lb but he has zero sagging skin.
    2. he cured his diabetes
    3. his alzheimers is A typical. he still recognizes us all. he seems to remember the past the best but he can still carry on a conversation, and other things,
    4. the last check on his heart disease found an unusually healthy heart.
    thanks for sharing this, I’m looking forward to greatly increasing his fat intake to see if we can bring him back a bit.
    I myself have started intermittent fast with a keto diet to fix my own diabetes.

  • @tslilbearshoppe9870 says:

    The one thing I’ve learned about fasting is …the more you eat, the more you eat. One meal a day is best for me. You make it to dinnr and you r full. Couple hours later u r asleep. Its over. Fill up on decaf hot tea during the day and before you know it’s time to leave work

    • @gloriamaryhaywood2217 says:

      Your on the right track forward now! Every now and then if I start feeling particularly hungry I will eat two times per day. But that doesn’t happen very often. It always best to stay attuned to what our bodies are telling us. Most times it’s very easy to keep eating down to OMAD. Here’s hoping you’re still making great progress!😊

      I lost 15 kilograms with intermittent fasting, 20:4. But two years later it all started coming back. The doctor said it could be hormones or thyroid, but intermittent fasting is not working for me a
      anymore. I even started going to the gym for three months and I gained weight 🙁 On the other hand I was just fed up with everything, I went on vacation to Greece for ten days and I ate like a cow there, from dusk till dawn and I lost two kilograms. Something’s doesn’t add up that’s for sure.

  • @NLR759 says:

    The thing I love most about fasting is that it frees up SO MUCH TIME during my day. When I fast, I am not spending any time shopping or cooking food. I can do other things to get out of the house or distract myself from thoughts about food. Unlike calorie counting, which essentially makes me obsessed with thoughts about food, meal planning, and looking up everything I eat on some app to figure out calories. Fasting is definitely the way to go!

    • @violetwade6528 says:

      That sounds really disordered. Sorry, seems to be working for you but fasting during the day (starving yourself to save calories for later) sounds like a one way ticket to binge-eating disorder.

    • @joannathesinger770 says:

      @@violetwade6528 Apparently you’re behind the information curve regarding Intermittent Fasting. You aren’t “saving up calories to eat later”…you are not eating for a specific period of time, then eating within a specific window in order to keep your insulin as low as possible during your fasting window. It’s ONLY when insulin is low that your body can access its fat stores and utilize them for energy. You can have whatever you’d like to eat within your eating window…but the hormones ghrelin and leptin prevent you from binging during your eating window.

      When you Intermittent Fast, you engage all sorts of healthy behaviors AND can reverse Type 2 diabetes which is epidemic in our society today.

  • @zholud says:

    The biggest obstacle to fasting is that it requires discipline and willpower. Stopping eating is the same as stopping drinking alcohol or stopping smoking. Denying yourself of pleasure is hard. Overeating is a form of addiction.

    • @majo3796 says:

      It is harder than quitting smoking, because you can quit smoking cold turkey and kind of forget about it eventually, you cannot just quit eating completely.
