The power of intermittent fasting

Take care of your legitimate health needs first. Then do what you can around it. If you have medication that you need to take, take it as directed and as works best for you. If intermittent fasting doesn't work with that, it isn't for you but you have many many other options.
Does drinking protein shakes mess up my fast?
I been doing 16-8
Usually drink coffee in the morning
Sometimes a protein shake before or after eating times when I'm felling hungry
So would a protein shake be considered food or liquids?

A protein shake is considered a meal, but do what’s best for you on the journey.

Anything that triggers an insulin response is breaking your fast. Insulin release is the trigger to keep your body from burning fat stores.
Water, black cofee and plain brewed tea's are acceptable. Green tea and coffee are goop appetite suppressants along with water that has some pink Himalayan salt added to it.
Yeah and coffee is my fucking weakness...It's been days where I drink coffee and not a whole lot, black and will not eat until like 4 or 5pm....That shit suppresses the hell out of your appetite.
It's calories fam so a protein shake can break your fast.Does drinking protein shakes mess up my fast?

cool, I been fucking my fast up
Naw I'll stop. If I'm going to do it gotta do it right. They say if you know better , Do better.
I'll keep the shakes between eating times.
Appreciate game. Thanks for your input.
It took me a minute to perfect. General rule of thumb, I drank water and tea with monk fruit sweetner until noon. I eat noon to 8pm. Drink water and tea until I go to bed.cool, I been fucking my fast up
My man’s over there thinking he’s fasting, but with the amount of protein in a shake he ain’t doing nothing but eating a small steak.
Very true, but that’s what it takes and that helps you eat less, then go for it!
It’s just not a true fast, but you’ll work it out.

A lot of people seem to confuse fasting with eating low-carb/keto. Or think fasting only applies to eating solid foods.
Are you on any kind of workout or exercise regimen?
light exercise, light weight lifting... yes
Damn ive been guilty too. Thinking im doing somethingMy man’s over there thinking he’s fasting, but with the amount of protein in a shake he ain’t doing nothing but eating a small steak.
Im the same height but at 245 now. Working to get down to 220
Ease into it fam. 16/8 works perfectly fine. No need for the extreme imo.
I ran for the first time in 3 months on Monday but I still have been fasting. I felt like Bambi, take it light fam. I am still sore than a mug.
I did some light workouts every morning before I started drinking lol plus I was hiking up in the damn mountains for ziplines. Im gonna take it easy the next 2 days then Sundays its back to normal.
July 4th my ass going to Costa Rica but they got alot of outdoor activities but I know I will be eating and drinking the whole time.
One thing about IF is it keeps my blood pressure in check. If start eating 3-4 times a week my blood pressure will spike
I’ve been doing IF for 3 years now, I’m 6’1 and always hovered around 225-235, heaviest was 242 once. The lowest I got was i think 192, I didn’t like that weight so went back up to 210. I fall off sometimes and gain weight but I’ve never gotten over 218 pounds in the 3 years I’ve been doing IF
She’s an idiot. I don’t care how accomplished she is.
You doing this at home?
I'm asking because I'm still paying for LA Fitness, but I'm not going to train, just the pool, hot tub, & sauna.
I'm about to get some weights, bench, and cage for the house and just do my shit on my own
Raven Symone or the chick posting?
And how many hours on/off you do?
Damn, 8 lbs in a week, thats good.
So only eat within that 8 hour window?
And watch what I eat....
Man, I already know all this, I just fell off and be eating whenever. Stop working out.
I'm 6'2" and I'm at 252 lbs last I checked a couple weeks ago. I got sidelined by some injuries that are taking longer to heal, but I'm getting back active.Do some of these complexes but use your dumbbells.
I did this with the same 135 in the gym Monday and almost died. Had my heart rate up like a mofo. Im gonna knock some out tomm. These look easy but its hard.
Also with dumbbells you can put some weighted burpees in your routine for some HIIT. Jump Rope also
I just finished working out in the garage while on hour 20 of a fast.
