are you too scared to do in a minute fasting okay well that’s what someone told me this weekend and I want to explain what I told her okay so she was trying to get on the program she could do the ketogenic diet but she had a problem with fasting because she was really really nervous that it was gonna be too painful she didn’t want to starve okay I don’t know why she didn’t want to starve she was fearful of extreme hunger and muscle loss because she has to eat so frequently that when she doesn’t eat she just freaks out it’s like a stressful situation when your body goes into this flat or fight mode and the interesting thing is that every time she eats she’s never satisfied she’s she constantly has to eat food she can’t lose weight and she can’t sleep as well there is a way to do it that is not uncomfortable because here’s the thing the benefits are huge that go way beyond just weight loss cognitive improvements with your focus in memory and mood elevation but your inflammation drops your brain actually can grow new cells so here’s what I told her okay you start with three meals no snacks the key is adding more fat to the meal fat is very satisfying it’ll allow you to go longer without eating okay now her thought was well my gosh I’m if I eat all this fat how am I gonna lose weight I said here’s the thing your first goal should not be weight loss okay it should be hunger loss so the first goal of intermittent fasting should be to get rid of your hunger so you actually can do in a minute fasting you’re never going to be able to do that with hunger okay and cravings it’s going to be impossible so you have to add fat and you have to drop carbs and then what’ll happen you’re not going to be hungry as much and that’s gonna allow you to go longer and longer to the point where you can drop out your breakfast and now you’re at two meals and you start pushing these together closer and closer and as you key to adapt if you want to cut down the fats you can do that but not initially so the fat really is the key to allow intermittent fasting to actually work and get your body need ketosis so you’re not running on glucose anymore because that’s all about craving and being hungry because I mean look at this you only have 1,700 calories of stored sugar okay that’s like maybe six to eight hours but you have about over a hundred thousand calories of stored fat you have an unlimited capacity to store fat our bodies were designed to use fat fuel but now that the frequent frequency that people are eating realize you’re going for no hunger no craving and if you keep your carbs low this should happen pretty quick and you start to drop off these meals push it to two meals if you want to go to one meal that’s great but get comfortable with this first all right thanks for watching so if you want to get notified with all my content click the notification bell next to subscribed
