"When I lose my weight, I'll still keep fasting as an option, because it's a remarkably powerful tool." I strongly encourage you to do this because it will remain helpful to your non-overweight body to not incur all of the extra "mileage" of your ramped up metabolic system, day after day, for the rest of your life. I would also encourage you to attempt to remove the calories from your coffee on your fasting days - it seems picky since it is just 50 calories but your metabolic processes have to turn themselves all the way on in order to process that energy input. I feel that there is a big difference between all-the-way-off and all-the-way-on in terms of your fasted state. Best of luck to you!
