The Science of Fasting (2 Viewers)

I am currently under the weather. This is the THIRD time I've had a cold since early October. Is it the season? Maybe. But end of September is also the last time I was earnestly doing IF.

I have discovered a new side effect. Been feeling cold a lot more than usual. At first, and it might be part of it, I attributed it to adjusting to the fat loss. Noticed that after lunch I am no longer cold.

I noticed a while back that on my 20+ hour fasts I get really cold for a few hours around the 20 to 24 hour mark. I’m usually very warm natured, but it can be an uncontrollable coldness. Shiver my arse off for a few hours and then I’m back to normal.

I have not done IF in a year, my diet just stabilized completely since I moved in with my girl friend. Her niece has come to live with us, however, and she loves Italian food. So I have been doing more than my normal share of the cooking and I have gained about 5 pounds. I ate my last meal before 4pm today. Even though I haven't needed it at all for weight loss these days, I have actually kind of missed it. So I am excited to pick it back up for 3 or 4 days. And I am betting that even though it took me over a month to put on those 5 pounds, I will be right back where I want to be by Sunday. We shall see.

Why Do I Get Cold After I Eat? Causes and Potential Indications

Your body temperature naturally varies after eating, although this slight change in internal temperature often goes unnoticed. This article explores the main reasons why you may feel cold after eating and when to seek medical advice.

I used to love the cold but ever since I changed my eating and lost a ton of weight, I am far more sensitive to the cold. On the flip side, I enjoy hot weather a lot more now lol

Of course. Good luck!

I threw in the towel last night. Eight full days and about a 14-15 pound loss. If I curb the usual weight creeping back up to about five pounds, that would be good for me.

Coworkers wanted to know my secret to dropping weight.

I explained that over feeding was slowly killing me. Then I realized that a goldfish will eat itself to death if you over feed it. So I told myself that if I was killing myself with food, I'm no smarter than a goldfish.

IDK if they felt offended that I'd just called them stupid as fish or not.

what I noticed when I lost all the weight fasting, was that I lost my ability to sit on hard seats (like bleachers) for anything more than a few minutes. Who knew there were arse bones.
