Polymathic Pedagogue on Nostr: I've been overweight most of my adult life, to one degree or another, and have gone ...
I've been overweight most of my adult life, to one degree or another, and have gone up and down on the scale, depending on any number of factors (exercise levels, diet, fasting regimens, etc.). For a year or two, I kept pretty consistent with OMAD but have found recently that it has been tough to keep up with due to various commitments. It's the usual sob story (or excuses) you'll hear from many a fat man.
Anyway, ages ago, I'd heard about dry fasting from Cole Robinson (of Snake Diet fame) but didn't think too much of it. However, something called the "Dry Fasting Club" popped up on my radar the other day, and I've started working through their long-form articles and video series. In one of their articles, this passage caught my attention:
"If you're trying to build a weight loss routine that is not too crazy but offers powerful fat loss, you want to look into 36-hour dry fasts once a week. This is a powerful routine that will absolutely change you into a new person over a few months. In a year you won't recognize yourself."

It made me wonder how accurate this really is, but I'm willing to give it a go. For the next month, I'll be doing at least one 36-hour dry fast per week and will let you know what kind of progress I've made. If things trend in a positive direction (for fat loss), I'll definitely continue beyond that.
Caveat lector: Given how much I post about privacy, you won't be surprised by the fact that I won't be posting progress photos. However, I'll let you know how many kilos I've gained or dropped otherwise.
