Fasting for weight loss? Anonymous
Anyone here have experiences with water/juice fasting for weight loss?
>> Anonymous
Most people here have their period when someone mentions fasting.

I'd do a 3 day juice fast before trying a water fast, expect to lose a fair bit of muscle weight along with fat. Short fasts have a few health benefits but your body goes into starvation mode and uses less calorie to operate. If your only goal is weight lose your better off with diet and exercise

"Juice Fasting" is not fasting
It is a diet composed of juice

Intermittent fasting is safe and probably beneficial

As for ZOMG NOT EATING EVERY 3 HOURS MAKES YOUR BODY GO INTO STARVATION MODE
this chart shows that your metabolic rate INCREASES for a several day period of fasting
