    The people who fast to lose weight are those who dislike their weight level to the degree of mental health degredation, because fasting is a time-efficient method of weight loss. If you are comfortable in your body, there’s no need to lose weight.

      Fasting is a self-defeating method anyway, because the first thing you lose is muscle mass – so you end up still fat (because fat is slow to lose) but weaker and less able to metabolise fat.

      To lose weight for health reasons (which are real for many people): Don’t fast. Eat less fat, eat less sugar, eat less highly processed starch. Exercise a lot more. Some people may need to eat a bit more protein to help build muscle mass, but most of us eat more than enough of that anyway.

      And keep this up. For the rest of your life. Yes, FEEL THE PAIN OF SELF-CONTROL! BWAAHAHAHAHAHA!

        That depends on the individual’s metabolism. If you’re eating more than you’re physically capable of metabolizing, it doesn’t matter how healthy you’re eating; it’ll still result in weight gain. For such individuals, fasting is a perfectly legitimate weight loss technique.

        And those who fast out of mental health as DTIBA mentioned often fast long enough to deal with the fat anyways. Yes it’s unhealthy in the short-term, but it’s a lot easier to eat healthy to KEEP fat off than it is to eat healthy to GET RID of fat.

      Fast (n):

    I actually used to eat apples in my sleep. I’d wake up and there would be apple cores in my window sill. The really weird part is that I didn’t keep apples in my room; I had to go downstairs, into the kitchen grab an apple, go back upstairs, and eat the apple, all without waking up.

    Just get a CPAP with a humidifier chamber and you can snort liquified pizza to your heart’s content!

    Plus your wife will thank you if you snore.
