If you are new to fasting you can start by trying meal skipping. Normally we have three meals per day: breakfast, lunch and dinner. You can do this spontaneously, when y ou just don’t feel hungry or because you wish to try fasting. There is no certain amount of skipped meals you need to have per week.
For example: Skip breakfast on monday, lunch on wednesday and skip dinner on friday.
This means you fast 24h every other day or allow yourself to eat few hundred calories. This is obviously more challenging and includes a lot of longer periods of time when you won’t be eating anything.
For example: Monday eat normally, Tuesday fast or eat 200 cal, Wednesday eat normally, Thursday fast or 200 cal, Friday eat normally…
This is very similar to alternate-day fasting except you are not meant to consume any calories on your fast days. This means you will be eating normally and fasting with water 24 h but don’t worry you will be having only one to two fasting days per week.
For example on Monday you eat normally, Tuesday 24 h fast, Wednesday eat normally, Thursday eat normally and Friday fast. Rest of the week you can eat normally.
This diet plan comes from a British journalist Michael Mosley. You restrict yourself twice a week into eating only 500 calories per day if you’re a woman and 600 cal if you’re a man.
For example: Monday eat normally, Tuesday eat only 500 calories during the day, Wednesday eat normally, Thursday eat normally, Friday eat normally, Saturday eat only 500 cal, Sunday eat normally.
This plan includes fasting everyday. You will be fasting 16 hours everyday while you get 8 hours a day time to eat. This means you could start eating at 11 am and have your last meal 7 pm. Basically this is a very easy way of fasting and you could just skip your breakfast in the morning to do this. Remember that you can have 3 or more meals during your 8 hours.
For example: Monday start eating 11 am, eat next meal 3 pm and last meal 7 pm and continue this way throughout the whole week.
Welcome to my blog! I write about healthy diets, weightloss and money tips. I have struggled for years to lose weight and tried many different diets. When I finally decided to focus more on my health than just wanting to lose weight I started losing weight naturally. It was a full lifestyle change. One key point through this transformation was basically going on a paleo diet. You might want to check out Dr. William Davis.
As a person who moved to a different country I know how hard it can be to get a decent job. I wanted to include different money tricks and tips on my blog to help people who have ended up in similar situations.
