Hell yeah.

Lost 30 lbs. by not eating on Mon, Wed, and Fri. Probably the easiest way I’ve ever lost weight.

I find I can either eat, or not eat. I have no in-between. I have no moderation. If I try to eat 3 small sensible meals a day I spend the whole day thinking about food and I wind up “cheating”.

Easier to just not eat that day. If you usually eat 2,500 calories a day you just cut 7,500 calories out of your weekly Calories In without even really trying.

Yup. It works. It just makes you not want to constantly cram food in your mouth.

The only problem is if you stop it. Oh my god the hunger urges come back twice as strong. Unstoppable food rampage urges…

The article is missing the point.

It’s easier to do. Duh.

Of course the real way to lose weight is Calories In, Calories Out. Anyone who thinks there’s some secret sauce special magic in South Beach, Paleo, Vegan, Low-Carb, Keto, Intermittent Fasting, Alternate Day Fasting is just reducing their caloric intake as a by-product of their “diet”.

It’s always been Calories In, Calories Out. It’s just easier to lower your intake by fasting sometimes. Trying to eat small, sensible meals suuuucks.

Even GLP-1s work by turning off hunger so you don’t want to cram food in your face all the time. So you eat less calories…

It’s not rocket surgery.

If it works, then it works.

I know the answer is because beef just hasn’t traditionally been practical, but it’s just not Christmas without a roast beef and au jus. What a travesty. (Yes, USA here).
