[QUOTE="bulkbiker, post: 1310967, member: 219467"] Sorry but that's not really correct.. lots of little meals means your insulin is being constantly provoked and never gets a chance to stop being produced. Fasting allows your body to have a break between feedings. The metabolic rate in fact usually speeds up when fasting as your body is being urged to go find some more food. [USER=96505]@Lisajohann2014[/USER] For the best results its best to avoid eating anything while your fasting. The coffee with a tablespoon of cream is fine but try not to have the cheese or nuts. When I started I stopped eating breakfast so I could fast from dinner the night before until lunch. Then I delayed lunch until I ended up fasting from dinner to dinner. Then you can try longer fasts. If you have only been low carb for a few weeks I'd wait another month or so in order for your body to become more fat adapted before trying for longer fasts. The less carbs you can eat the better and the easier the fasting will be. Hope that helps a bit Regards Mark [/QUOTE]
