No, I was living alone while going to school. I would starve myself so I could save more money. What is the difference between X day fasts and what I did?
I am not trying to claim that fasting doesn't work, just noting my personal experience. For me it certainly worked in the sense that I saw the fakeness of "if you don't eat for X days you get super hungry or weak/sick/you die", I was perfectly ok.. but not amazing.
- oh_sigh 8y agoThe difference is that fasters aren't intentionally calorie restricting, they are just time restricting their eating. It sounds like you may have been starving yourself(getting fewer calories than you needed), and also time restricting yourself.
