When do I exercise on 20 hour fast? @DyAnnParham
@@BlossomBlendFibres when it works for you. Many people workout fasted and love it. Others do not! So schedule your workouts so they work into your life.
Hi Dy Ann, 20 hour fasting for the past 6 weeks.. I’ve lost 17 pounds. Stuck at the same weight for 3 years…love IF, feel so great, sleeping through the night and 67 years old.
Yes!!!!
Wow that’s fantastic Judy 👍💖💖💖
Wow Judy thats amazing!!! Working towards 20. Be there soon.Are you eating what you want?
@@victoriao6464 I'm trying to eat clean and low carb. I'm not counting calories. Drinking lots of water and green tea...
That's awesome Judy!!
FINALLY hit 200 pounds. Haven't been there in 19 years! On my way to 150 pounds, which is my goal. Started at 255 on May 15. IF is now my life and I never felt better. THANK YOU!
Yes!!!
heyl i'd love to hear if you are still making progress towards your goal? seeing ur msg 4 months after you posted, and looking for some motivation
I started a 20 hr fast 3 weeks ago I went from 154 to 147 !!! Unbelievable I will continue fasting I even do 22 hours some days I feel wonderful. at first it was kind of hard I started this on my own then started looking up video on fasting and found this one . When you see the weight start going down !!!! That’s what keeps me going .
Keep it up! It just gets better!!
I'm 54 and I'm not any ageing woman! Just menopaused and feel great and looking forward to live a long healthy life. No processed food, very limited sugar, 16-18 hrs fast every day and 3-5 days water fasts every month since 2017. Greetings from Poland 💜
Hi, are you on Instagram?
@@noisysparrow3636 no, just fb
Tak trzymac, pozdrawiam!
Thanks for the great info and your success! Please tell me what your weight loss is and how much weight, approximately, you’ve lost each month. What food are you eating?
No to fajnie!😍 Regards from NYC🐞🍀🌺💖🌞
I’ll be 74 in two weeks and I’m stuck at 215 lbs. I’m going to do this. 20 hour fasting.
I lost 60 pounds doing 20:4 fasting and have kept it off for the past 6 years. Love the lifestyle and will do it for the rest of my life.
tmac--how long did it take you to lose the 60 pounds? Did you include exercise? Thanks!
@@reachthenations about 4 months - I lost too much weight actually and had to increase my food intake. I've got the ratio right now. I did regular exercise as well, gym 2-3 times a week but the fasting was the major factor in the weight loss. Clean fasting is the secret - water or black tea or coffee, no cream, no juice etc. Good luck!
@@rottnfren --curious if you are male or female?! Having to increase food intake is awesome (and unusual for women)! Either way your results are very encouraging. I'd like to lose 52 pounds in the next 3 months--special occasion. When I'm motivated (and I am), I stick with things to the letter! I just started walking (interval) 10,000 steps a day, 6 days a week about a week ago. And started my first 20:4 (very clean) IF yesterday. It wasn't too hard. So glad I found out about this 20:4 fasting secret. The only thing different is I am taking prescription meds which I desperately can't wait to get off of. It can't happen too soon!
@@reachthenations I'm a 59 year old female, so I was 53 when I started fasting. I just wish I had found out about it when I was younger, but better late than never. All the best.
Can I sweeten crio brew with stevia and still clean fast?
I’ve used the 20 hr fast for a year- fairly quickly lost 40 lbs and have maintained that for many months.
Thanks for sharing, how long did it take you to lose the 40 lbs?
I am 69 years old, have been fasting for 5years but doing the 12 hours and no weight loss. In January of 2022 began fasting for twenty to twenty four hours and have lost two dress sizes and continue to lose weight.What you are saying is true.I just happened to see your video.I fast every single day for spiritual reasons.People comment on my extreme weight loss .I am from Trinidad and Tobago, West Indies .
I started my 20hr fast straight after watching this recording. I’m 4 days in now and wow wow wow!
I’m not tired anymore, my tummy is flatter(husband confirmed), I’m never hungry. I feel like something has been lifted off my body. I will continue for as long as l can. As for weight, l hardly weigh but my jeans will tell.
Amazing feeling. I've experienced same!
Definitely makes your stomach much flatter omg I thought it was only me....
So happy for you. What eating window works best for you?
I’m in this month’s IF COURSE, yay! May 2024. Water has been a game changer BIG TIME!! My first time here on UA-cam live. Loving it so far. REM and deep sleep scores have increased tremendously!! And my skin is glowing already!! And due to the water, my body has no room for junk food and I tell myself food is not going to help boredom and food isn’t my friend! Super helpful mantras. Thank you for them. 😊
Girlfriend…you are crushing it. Sleep improvements are amazing. Keep up the good work.
Oh. My. God!!! I discovered fasting several months ago and have been doing a 3 to 5 day fast once each month. Between the longer fasts I tried 16|8 or 18|4, but had MAJOR dips in energy on theses days. I’m on 20|4 and am now full of energy all day. I work out (mainly lifting weights) without a problem. I’ve lost 65 lbs since Nov ‘21 and have about 17 to go. I’m happy I discovered your channel. I’ve subscribed and hit the notification bell.
Congratulations Della! Fantastic work!!!
So happy for you. And so excited to have you here with us.
@@DyAnnParham Want to join 7/2/22 challenge, how do I sign up, help?
@@debora.426 we would love to have you go to www.fortodaysagingwoman.com/find-out-more
Wow!
I have taken your advice and I’m now consistently fasting 20+ hrs a day. I have been clean fasting for 2 yrs and had a 26 lb loss. Then Life happened and I regained 18 pounds. I struggled and could not restart the weight loss. I took your advice and ramped it up. I have reset my hormones now the weight loss is happening again! Thank you!
I lost 55 pounds in 11 months using IF 18-20 hours a day, five days a week, combined with walking about 20 miles a week. Intermittent fasting works!
Yes! Keep it up.
I am glad I found this. I started eating 1 meal a day by accident and noticed I felt better. I have gained so much weight since menopause. I never had weight issues before. I went from 140 to 177 and nothing worked to get it off. I am a former personal trainer and never dreamed I would struggle with this. I am always bloated and struggle with inflammation since vaccine injury this last year. It seems like the fasting has helped but I was concerned about getting the nutrition I need. Watching this confirms I am on the right track and I have lost 4 lbs in the last week. It does not bother me at all to go this long without eating. Hoping this is going to continue to bring healing. Thank you!
Chris, Dr. Mercola recently posted an article about what to do if you are vaccine injured. Number 1 was time restricted eating…aka intermittent fasting! I loved that! Nothing to buy, just don’t eat all day!
Holy cow! This is me (except for the Personal trainer part). Avid runner and never worried about weight at all until menopause. Nothing has worked, 145 up to 175 in just a couple of years and incredibly frustrating. Just found this today so hope it helps.
What was your vaccination injury?
Approaching 50. Started IF Sept 2021, 18-20 hr fasting window, 6 days a week. Drink 100-140 oz water a day. Eat clean most days. Eat whatever I like in social settings. 5'6 with starting weight 225 lbs. Now 155lbs (70 lbs down). Didn't do any exercise until Mar 2022 which is walking 5 miles a day only, 5-6 days a week. On days I do a 20-4, I eat at start and end of the window to get in 2 full meals and enough nutrients. Eat 18-6 must days. Also, I loosen my eating window 1 day a week to trick the body a bit.
When u lost the wt did u find that your skin came back to normal or did it remain stretched out. Thanks!
So my question to you is your name... But did you need it? Cause it was just what I needed. 20-4. Clean fasting. Feasting well. Training smart.
30 pounds down doing OMAD AND ON average I do 20 to 24 hour fasts daily, food tastes over the moon fantastic 💜
Have you had a full blood count to check that everything is normal?
New subscriber here. I began my IF journey April 8th 2021with 16:8. Been doing 18:6 for the last 5 months. I have lost 130 pounds so far. Today is my first 20:4 and I swear youtube heard me saying today is my first 20:4. Your video was recommended and I'm so happy I clicked. You are amazing, I love what you have to say. I want to lose 45 more pounds and I hope 20:4 will get me there before my vacation to Greece next year. I want to feel my best at 47 years old. The last time I felt this good was at 32 years old. Been too long since I loved myself. Thank you so much Dy Ann 🥰
Hopefully IF will see you sail through the dreaded big M. Wish I had known about it before I went through it!
@@gelbsucht947 I hope so too. My cycle is already 3 weeks apart and was driving me crazy. My DR put me on BC to help with the cramps especially. Some days were as bad as being at 4 when giving birth. Hope you're much better now 🥰
@@pattydonna8549 I am now at 66 but I had a pretty grim menopause too. 😳 Unfortunately I didn’t know about IF then.
@@gelbsucht947 Oh okay, glad it's over for you. You can enjoy the benefits of IF now. Quite honestly IF didn't help with the awful cramps.
Hi I try to IF and feel terrible at the 16th hour. Any suggestions
I have been fasting for 4 years. I love it. When I do 20 hrs it really is a GAMECHANGER. !!!
Fasting changed my life.
❤️❤️
I do 23hrs fasting!!! I feel so slim and fit omg!!! This is my lifestyle goal and I will do this for the rest of my life!!!
Wow that’s incredible
@@FunkaliciousFeline thank you so much! Yesterday I did my longest fast 26hrs I also exercise at leave 3× out the day mornings, evenings, and I play outside with my kids. Yesterday we went skating and I sated the whole time in my fasting state! I got home late but I did eat all my calories..
Is this a joke?
@@TheKrazyKat8 no I really do 23/1 fasting eat my first meal at 6pm stop eating by 7pm! I'll have all my calories and meals at one time. During the day I'm burning tons of calories.
Newbie here. I just started fasting yesterday and I just found this channel. I was going to do the 16 hour but not now , I'm going to do 20 hour instead because I am 64 years young. Thank you for sharing this
Thank you Dy Ann for sharing this information with all of us. I'm 60 yrs young. I started out with the 15 hour intermediate fasting and for the first time in four years I started to see some weight lose. I'm now progressing to the 20 hour fasting. Best wishes to you all. May you all enjoy your new fit bodies!
Please keep us posted on your progress. We love hearing about wins.
Hello girlfriends, so happy to have found you! I’ve been fasting on and off throughout my menopause but had no idea there was a community. IF just seemed to work for me, I had to keep it secret to stop criticism though. I’m now 58 and feeling great, and so relived that I’ve found you and won’t need to hide IF any more as you give the science to prove it works :) xx from Sally UK
I am 37, recently discovered the fasting lifestyle. I have always been 125lbs or less, now I weigh more than what I did at my highest pregnancy weight. Just dabbling with IF/ up to 36hr fasts, have lost 12 lbs in 3 weeks. Feel awesome!! Aches and pains that a 37yr old shouldn't have are almost completely gone! Now dedicated to making this a lifestyle! Spreading the word!
Love this.
Great to hear from a 30s yr old. Im 36 and was curious if this would work for my age group. I am not going to try yet becuz I am still breastfeeding, but in a couple months would like to lose the rest of my pregnancy weight on my tummy. Working on my diastasis recti first!
Plus I need energy to keep up with toddlers!
Is the fasting class paid ,if yes how much
I did my first 20 hour start a couple of days ago. It was wonderful…my inflammation was GONE. My mood and mind clarity was wonderful too!
Boom! Now rinse and repeat.
I'm curious...how can you tell your inflammation is gone.
I dropped 2 pounds and my joint pain was gone.
@@kimberlyd40 yes!!!!
@@capridillon8595 what do you think inflammation feels like?
Just finished my first 20 hour fast!
i love that. i thrive on 48 hours fasts because my digestive issues. i got up to seven days feeling great. thank you for opening my eyes to fast.
Just saw my MD and she is intermittent fasting and now she supports me. I’m 70 she is in her early 50’s.
Yes!!!!!
Works for men too. I’ve been fasting for 18 to 20 hours for half a year, and dropped over 40 pounds.
About 2 years ago I was gaining weight around my belly uncontrollably and 20hrs fasting is doing wonder to my body. I’ve been doing it over a year now and I get compliments how good I look. On weekends I do 16-17 hrs fasting to enjoy my food a little more.
I’m 68 years old and I’ve been doing a 18/6 fasting schedule. I’ve had some success but not what I need. Very excited to do the 20 hour fast. Thanks so much for this info‼️
Just when this fasting starts?
THANK YOU for THIS VIDEO! I'm a midlife personal stylist. I've put on 20# starting perimenopause 2 years ago while on vacation in Spain.
After lots and lots of research, I've found that most doctors don't know a f#%k about menopause and hormones.
I did have immediate (1 month) 5# loss of the weird spare tire fat roll with Provitalize and do have a coupon to try it!
I needed this video for more support and more strategies to support myself and my clients.
The other tip I've found is that you can't be committed to drinking alcohol. It's a struggle because I did enjoy one tequila drink a few times a week, but I fast so much I just find that alcohol makes me feel like 💩.
The other tip: keep the weight lifting.
Biggest tip: get rid of ANYONE in your life that causes you STRESS. By the time we get to midlife, we get to have better boundaries. Life is too short. Sending love and support to all of us!!
Week 2 of February 2024 course & learning so much. 5.2 lbs down & so much inflammation already lost. So happy I finally joined the course!
Me too! And wow, you are crushing it! ❤️
I'm 30yrs old and I adore IF I lost 200lbs by fasting never done a 23 hour fast until this week. I would love to go longer someday... but this is what I am going to do the rest of my life. Yesterday I've at past my window because of my daughter's birthday so I hate a little later! I just jump back on the next day...
It’s been two weeks on plan and lost five pounds. Thought I would struggle without any fake sugar in my drinks but am going the full 20 (on mt valley and other mineral waters, unsweetened tea & coffee)Adding salt helps a lot. Your words of encouragement have made a BIG difference. This is my longest and most successful period fasting. My first time without fake sugar this has made all the difference! Previous fasts have all included fake sugar and I lost nothing. Unadulterated drinks and 20 hrs has made all the difference for me! I’m 61 and a 7 yr vegan had not been able to lose much previously. Your plan is transformative! Thank you!!!
Wow, congrats. I’m trying this out because I would love to balance my hormones and quit my monthly. I’m 53. I’ve been doing this almost one full week and it’s easier than I thought it would be. I realize I’m not getting to eat as much though, and cramming in all I can in my four hours. I guess this has to be for the rest of my life???
My last name is Alonzo, spelled with a "z" instead of an "s". Don't see this last name often! Congrats on progress. How's it going after a month?
THANK YOU for speaking about memory loss. I have been experiencing the same and am being told that's "normal". I didn't listen and looked up memory boosting foods and realized that even though I am fasting IF, I was not paying enough attention to the importance of the nutritional aspect while feasting. Changing that now! Will keep you posted. Love your videos and they always seem to be spot on. 🥰🤗
Thanks for stopping by today.
Good great morning everyone. I just happened on your site and your fast sounds like what I need. I will begin this fast this evening with the 12 to 15-hours. Diagnosed a pre-diabetic and want to reverse that. Thanks for my smart start.
I had the same diagnosis! Reversed that with what I teach. You are in good hands here.
I need this!!!! I had positive experience w keto in 2019 lost over 75 lbs (at my peak) and felt amazing. Fell back to bad habits after hitting a 6 month plateau and feeling like I’ve completely failed myself again in my pursuit of better health 😢now I get to start alllll over again plus an extra 10 lb cherry on top. I feel miserable, inflamed everything hurts. Menopause is just an added bonus to the 100+ I need to lose. I’m trying to get my head right again and feel stuck. I know what I need to do but cannot seem to get my act back together. Just discovered your channel and subscribed. Thank you for your passion and sharing. I’m listening!
I am in the same boat. I focused on my diet in 2018 & then added exercise in 2019 & IF. Lost 80 lbs. Felt amazing! Gained it all back. Starting agaiin to lose 80+. We can do this. IF works!
I started 20:4 ten days ago. I've already lost 10 pounds. I was suprised because I find it very hard to lose weight. This is the only thing that is working.
Boom!!
Fasting from 20 to 23 hours each day and occassionally 48 hrs has stopped my hot flushes and i can sleep through the night 👏. It’s worth trying for sure as it costs nothing and actually saves you money. I feel amazing.
I'm currently going through menopause. What do you drink throughout the day? Any headaches? Can you workout at the gym? Etc
@@AnaRo_sales How old are you? Are you going through pre-menopause?
48
I am not planning on paying to be in the group but I sure have received all the information that I need from listening to your program. It has now worked for me to eat just twice a day. My last meal consists of only fish and vegetables. I fast for about 15 hours (which includes sleeping) and then just wait until I have dinner whenever this is. This has suddenly started to work. The scale was stuck....now its moving. This will become a lifestyle instead of just something that I am doing right now to get the weight off. Can't thank you enough!
What's ur feasting window?
I am a Nov 2023 grad. The free information online was good information but the course material was Life Changing. Some of us don't need to pay to learn and some do. Congratulations, keep up the amazing work.
Ok I watched this on the 9th and tweaked my fast to 20hrs and no cream in coffee and wow!!! It is the sweet spot for sure! Weight is coming off and I feel great. I'm 66 yrs young. Will stick to 20 hrs now.
Love this. And that you for trusting ME with YOU.
Hi from South Africa
So glad I found you!!
Me too. Welcome.
I just came across this video. I will start on 7/20/22. I have trying to lose 20 lbs for the last few years. I am 57 and going thru meno. Thank you for your video its encouraging!!
I'm 54 and starting the 20 hour fast today as well. I have more than 20 pounds to go; however, I know this works (did Keto and IF and lost a LOT but fell off the wagon and into a sugar bowl).
This is Sudha . Signed for November 5 course and personal coaching. Sooo much to learn but excited that found you on UA-cam. Thank you for doing what you are doing.
I been doing Intermittent fasting for 3years plus I'm a vegetarian. For me I only drink water and herbal teas with Stevia. I've been using Stevia since 1980. Fasting works for me health wise and weight. Coming from a family were all the elders died of diabetes and Cancer, fasting is the way for me too go! Today most doctors won't tell their patients if they are Overweight. They are afraid of fat shaming or losing their patients. It's about health, diabetes, cancer and disease not fat shaming! Americans eat too much!! Yes! I said it too much and too much sugar!
Would love to know our ht. and at.
FASTING is the only thing that's worked for me!!! Sharing my journey on UA-cam too!!! Live your channel! I fast 22 hrs daily
Hey guys I am doing ADF (alternate day fasting) I started on May 9 and when I weighed on June 9th and I lost 16.5lbs in one month! I’m so excited, it has encouraged me to keep going. I will weigh again on July 9th to see if I have lost more. I am 65yrs old and I fast for 24 hrs midnight to midnight. So far I am doing great.
I like adf also fasting 41 hrs 6 hr eating window every other day
That is AWESOME!
I had to go to the dr on Friday for a follow up from a fall and of course they weigh you and I am down 20lbs and it hasn’t been 2 months yet until July 9th and that is my official weigh in day and I will know how much more I’ve lost on that day. I’m so excited that it is working so well
Thank you so much.
This is a timely message for me.
Started my 20:4 from today.
Have you been able to stick with it?
I hope so and wishing you the best!
Any updates?
I’ve been doing a 16 hour fast for a while now with not much change and was getting pretty discouraged. Thank you for this information! I am recommitted now and going to up my fast to 20 hours. Plus I know I need to clean up my eating. I can’t wait to get started!!
Me too!!! I’m 63 and need to lose about 100 lbs!
Same here, 16 hour fast and not working. And I'm 54 menopausal kinda discouraged for sure.
The time is always... NOW
I moved to 17 hours and it started the weight loss.
First time here live in Florida. I've been on 18/6 for a month. I'm 63 moving to 20/4 today. I'm feeling at home with this video..thank you
April 2020 graduate here! This program works! I reached my overall goal during lock down using your program! Yes, I wanted to lose weight but more than that I wanted to feel better! I was sick of feeling sick! I didn’t care what I had to do to get my health back! You have to want it bad enough to do what it takes and I was there! Even though I may go up and down a few pounds I go back to what I learned from this problem and it works every time! I’m in control! I feel and look my best at age 50! I’ll never go back!
Woo hoo!!!
Hi Dy Ann! Here on the rebound! Reviewing this lifestyle is really helpful, no matter how long we’ve doing this.
Thank you for sharing, I'm 65 and been trying to lose weight after menopause. Nothing has worked, I even exercise but I know it has to be my diet. So i try to eat healthier and control my portions. You look wonderful for your age and I hope to by not giving up. 🙏❤❤❤❤🙏👍🥰
I started IF in March of 2021. I wanted to lose 30 lbs. Started at 165. I have lost the same 30 pounds countless times. This last time was more difficult using conventional methods. I'm now 68. I started IF at 16 hrs, then quickly moved to 18 and 20. I lost about 2 lbs a week. Doing 20 hours did help me over the harder times. I successfully met my goal in June of 2021 and have kept the weight off doing 14 and 16 hour fasts, but when I had more lax times, just getting back on with 20 hour fasts got me back on track quickly. After I lost about 10 lbs I did start dirty fasting with tea and cream, but I kept records and this didn't seem to change my weight loss. I realize that some people can't dirty fast with results. That's why I tell everyone, "EVERYONE IS DIFFERENT" You have to monitor your results and what you do, eat etc, and see how it affects your results. You DO NOT have to do what everyone else says you HAVE to do. I can't tell you how many people I have watched that said you HAVE to do Keto, or you HAVE to calorie count. Some do, some don't. TEST THIS FOR YOURSELF. Do your OWN research. Everyone IS Different and some of these things don't work for everyone. I have read where some don't lose until they do OMAD.
@@wendycash54 I’m glad to hear that you say we don’t have to do what everybody else does which includes keto. I don’t want to go the rest of my life without having having a potato or some beans. So if limiting my eating window to four hours afford me those two luxury carbs I’m going for it.
I lost 14 lbs last year. On IF... and hit a plateau.... but have not gained....yay! I'm ready for the 20 hour fast..... I am starting today..... I feel great and looking forward to loosing 10 more lbs..... I am 79 and love my coffee with cream.... will change that since I do believe it takes me out of fast...
Want to join your class!
I'm 41 and I feel less hungry in general when I really really fast between 16-20 hours depending on my shifts at the hospital. But sometimes I fall off the wagon because I am an emotional eater but I feel the benefits everytime I get back on track.
I’m loving your videos! I’m pretty new to IF- about 4 weeks but I went all-in and am down from 145 to 125 (I’m very short!). My friend hadn’t seen me in a few months and said “where’s the rest of you?” I’m one who always relied on over-exercising to lose weight but at almost 50, I KNEW I had to conquer the intake side. I’m so excited because I feel every day like “I can do this!” NEVER had I had this experience when taking on the nutrition side of life. So much energy and I really feel that adrenaline kick during my fast and it’s such a mood elevator! Ok, my biggest challenge is I want to tell EVERYONE but I have to hold back and wait for folks to be open.
good for you. Keep it up
It is really working, do uou have energy to exercise while u fast?
Holy crap, you just popped on my timeline and I'm unsure why bc I don't need to lose weight lol but I wanted to say you are GORGEOUS. You look like an angel on earth. ❤️ Just wanted to tell you that!
Wow! Thank you. I appreciate you taking the time to leave such a sweet comment. You are more than welcome to hang out with us here. We are a great community of women.
First tried 16 hours nothing changed on May body and then 20 hours fast didnt work either .But after 3 months of 36 hours alternate day fasting and finally miracle happend.I lost 1/3 of my body weight.
Hello I Started The Intermittent Fast But I Messed Up, Now I'm Here To Get Back ON TRACK!! I Need To Lose 30 Pounds I am 59 years old. Thank You!
70 years old and was feeling sluggish, stomach felt full constantly (because it was - I snacked throughout the entire day.) Beginning of May this year I started fasting 20 hours a day (I eat between 3:30 pm and 7:30 pm). First thing I noticed was my energy level skyrocketed - I used to go go go all day and now I can do that again. My clothes are much looser (I refuse to get on a scale at my age). I am pre-diabetic so I'm anxious to see if my numbers go down as I do allow myself a sweet each night.
Test it out. If your condition does improve how you would like it to, you’ll know what to do.
@@DyAnnParham What is the best thing to DO if a person finds out they are Pre Diabetic???

@@DyAnnParhamPlease, No, how do I find out ? if I Am Pre-Diabetic??
@@stefaniekofalt9828 go to your doctor and have them run blood work
Interesting I'll be 45. Wow. Okay so I didn't do this by anybody telling me what to do. I just found that 20 hours of fasting was my key point of energy as well as maintaining my weight. This is so cool.
I've lost 20lbs in 3 months and am feeling wonderful at 67, just following The amazing Dr. Jason Fung. Love the free advice and direction.
Hi Dy ann, been doing 16:8 for 5 years and 20:4 for the last 2 weeks and I'm feeling great! I'm 58 years young
I don't understand this all. So are we saying 20 yrs straight? Are we saying 10 pm to 6:00 pm next day eat? I'm confused. 💥🥺
What about my gallbladder removed and now hysterectomy also. 😥 I was always 112 lbs now with all of this 145!!! 😭
So I'm trying to loss and I'm getting a tummy which I never ever had. 😥
Thank you for making these videos. I have lost 21lbs in 6 months on 18/6. Started 20+ and feel great. Obesity is a disease . I pray for the day when - And no resident* will say: “I am sick.”
The people dwelling in the land will be pardoned for their error.
Great lesson! Looking forward to the July class! The 20 hour fast is definitely my sweet spot. My struggle is dropping off during vaca. While in NYC with my daughter I ate all day! I woke every morning saying, “Ugh! I’m not looking and feeling my best! Why am I doing this?!”
Just learn to take fasting with you. It makes vacation fun. It is just a new MindSet.

How can I get into your July class ??? Please text me information!!!!!!!
Hi Ginny, do
You do this every day? I don't know when to stop. Im on day 7.
@@smellyrhinostudio there is no need to stop.
65 years young. I have been IF for about 18 months. 16:8 during the week and maybe 2-3 meals on the weekends. I lost 24 lbs and my doctor said keep up the good work. I know that I am at a plateau!!! I am joining the bandwagon today. New subbie. Thank you !!
I’m trying to learn this way of eating for health as well as the rumors of food shortages. This causes me to think I can get a head start if this really is true. In any case, thanks for the info. 😊
I’ve started on a 16/8 fasting program, and increased my work out. I’m hoping I lose a few pounds, but we’ll see. Gonna listen re 20 hour fast!
I actually fast once a week from Wednesday after dinner around 6pm until Friday at lunch at noon. 42 hours once a week. It is awesome! The rest of the week if I don’t do OMAD I do lunch at noon and dinner at 6. I’m almost 57. 5/18 I was 166.7 and today 7/15 I’m 151! I’m 5’1” and my goal is 130. Keto/Carnivore lifestyle change and fasting has changed my life!
I really needed to hear this today, so excited! Thank you Ann! ❤
I started fasting 20 hours over a month ago and have lost all of 4 lbs. The last pound likes to return, along with the 3rd one if I eat a chip or God forbid a cupcake. From birth to age 54, I was able to eat anything and everything, and people used to comment on how skinny I was! I was a bottomless pit. Now I can’t eat an olive. It’s so aggravating!!
You describe things so funny!
I appreciate you Dy Ann. I used to be so frustrated with fasting
Thanks for being here with us. Living our most authentic life should neve feel frustrating. So glad to hear things are working out!!
I love how fast you talk. It keeps my attention. Thanks for the info.
I'm a breast cancer warrior (survivor) this is great news! Such great motivation. Thank you for your time!
You bet. Congrats on being a warrior. Happy to have you here with us.
@@DyAnnParham do you have a video where you explain not necessarily what you eat but how you spread that out in a 4 hour feasting window.
So glad to have found you.
This is a breath of fresh air! I have cut out processed foods and doing IF since January, all over the place on internet watching IF information and my head was spinning. I have learned a lot and lost 30 pounds in the process. My best IF's are 20 to 40 hours. I have never felt better however I was feeling isolated/alone and really beat myself up when I enjoy an occasional"treat" at a family function. However after watching 2 of your videos I am renewed with several of your topics I can totally relate to. Going on vacation and would like to jump into a class after July 4th. I feel like I have found the place I am meant to be!
56! You look awesome!
I'm Soo happy I stumbled across your channel and I am ready to try it as early as tomorrow. I'm a proud black fifty eight Bahamian female and very excited. I've subscribed. Sending love and blessings from The Bahamas! 🙏❤️🇧🇸
Fasting really begin from a spiritual aspect because it is a holistic approach If you pray, meditate, fast and do supplications (vision boards) at the same time the benefits are powerful! I do an all-day spiritual water fast once a week, along with a sugar fast only eating processed sugars (bread, carbs, or my favorite sweet) once every 2 weeks, along with adding in HERBS such as tumeric, beet root and ginger along with vegetables and fruits you will never be on any medications even if the disease is hereditary in your family..I'm 48 and people tell me think I'm only 30 at the most because it helps your skin as well! Fasting is powerful and thanks to this lady Dy Ann Parham women are living healthy and longer and no longer need medications
I sugar fast 7 days a week! isn't it great?
I started doing something similar over the summer. It wasn't on purpose. It was more out of convenience because I was working so much and living in another city away from home for a summer job. Groceries were crazy expensive (Martha's vineyard) and cooking was a headache so i decided to eat one meal per day-lunch (i did have fruit late mornings before lunch). Long story short, i lost 10 lbs in about 4-6 weeks. No exercise whatsoever. I've never lost weight without trying really hard ever in my life. I'm 50 and postmenopausal. I'm definitely sticking to this plan once I go back home and I will implement exercise.
I normally do 19 or 24 hrs. But definitely AIMING FOR 20 THIS UPCOMING WEEK.
If I'm hungry I eat, if I'm not I don't. Always read the labels for serving size. Already started losing weight.
Sooo encouraging! I'm started menopausing this year.. I've been doing 18/6..I believe that I can and will do this....Thank you!!!
How old are you? Are you in premenopause?

I fast 22 hrs daily and love it! I can eat any foods I want as long as I keep my calories on target. I feel fantastic and am losing the pounds quickly.
I excited! I am 57 and I started 2 days off 20/4 feasting . It was hard around 18hrs but made it and now I’ve adjusted!!!
Hi , Im 57 . A new subscriber. I have fasted off & on . Listening to you on youtube . I live in Meridian, MS .
Welcome.
I have struggled with my weight most of my life .. lost over 100 lbs on low carb keto and IF .. I had a baby in 2019 .. he is medically fragile .. he needs 24/7 care.. my husband and I are his only caregivers .. he has been in out the hospitals since birth .. vent dependent .. Cerebral Palsy … many system issues .. I gained 45 lbs from the birth and stress .. I stayed in keto throughout it all .. I am sure my hormones are out of whack .. I’ve started the IF back and omad .. ima, also type 2 diabetic .. I struggle to keep my sugars down and my A1C … I feel defeated .. I don’t ever cheat or come off keto …
I am 67 and have had chronic asthma since I was 8 months old. I have been on 22/2 for over a year and my asthmas is so much much better.
Hello from Italy.I'm 50 years old and have been fasting 16 to 18 hours for the past 5 weeks and my PMS was much 'smoother' this time around! I would like to take it up a notch and go for a 20 hour fasting but I worry this may slow down my metabolism and backfire. Thank you so much. Francesca
Don't worry about something that hasn't happened yet!
Not eating will lower your insulin, not your metabolism. If you were to cut calories by eating less, but still frequently, then your metabolism would be negatively affected because your insulin levels would be spiked, while your caloric set point would fall to meet your new low calorie limit. On the other hand, taking in fewer calories from eating within a shorter eating window won't lower your metabolism because your body will use fat as fuel outside of the eating window, which will keep your metabolism at the same level.
I am very excited to pass this information and your podcast to one of my daughters who needs to listen to you too.
My mother did a 20 hour fast all the time when I was younger, but , she drank black coffee during her fasts. I thought it was a Lutheran thing lol! She didn’t like to cook and I think that explains her desire appetite for raw foods and gardening (simple eating). I’m trying the fasting and going through a work academy that requires a lot of physical exercise. I hope in five weeks I’ll see a huge change, I’m 49 and I have not been able to manage my weight it’s increasing rapidly.
Did she lose weight?
Hi Dy Ann. I'm your 71yr old lady from Chicago who will begin my fast tonight 12 to 15hrs to fight a pre diabetic status. Will let you know.
Girlfriend, will you be joining us for class in June??? Check in with us on Monday.
Interesting I don't mean to do this but I fast 20 hours. That's exactly my time to eat. I had some weight to lose 6 years ago. Lost it. In between that time. I found fasting. And my fast is about exactly 20 hours long. Wow pretty cool. Just to let you know ladies know. I've maintained my weight, for those 6 years. I'm not gaining I'm not losing and I'm right where I want to be. Holding that 20-hour fast. Very easy.
Hi Dy Anne from Australia 🦘can the 4hr feast start start 9am as I love my breakfast???☕️🍳🥓
Glad I found your channel started IF in 2020 for the first time it was great lost the weight and stopped for a year started back the last week in May and the results are great I love IF and I am able to do this at my own leisure I usually have a 1 hour window where I eat and then I would close that window this is because it takes my body so long to digest my food and I stay full longer before I was eating and I was not hungry that was when the weight piled back on so now I do an 18-20 and sometimes 24 hours fast this is where I am now feeling my best just turned 52 and feeling so much better now thank you for the lessons learned.
I love not eating. It makes me feel so empowered , strong and energetic. !
Me too! Empty and energize is my power play!
Great info! Starting today and my 80 yr old mother is inspired too. Wish us luck!
I HAVE DONE THIS FOR 10 YEARS AND IT HAS SAVED MY LIFE
❤️
I just found you today. Been in and off of keto and IF for 5 years. Yes.. everything I gained health wise I lost after getting off those regimens.
Started a 20 hr fast just yesterday! So what nutritional supplements should we use on the 20 hr fasting lifestyle. I just became diabetic, and yes… my life depends on 20 hour fasting.
A wake-up call!!!! I’m 76ers old.
No nutritional supplements are needed
