[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1033156, member: 41816"] Weeellll... Fat fasts are really as variable as the people who do them. They first became 'trendy' as a quick way to enter ketosis and/or kick start weight loss, and (I think) started as several little 200 cal snacks of mainly fat each day - fat ball, cream cheese, kinda thing. Personally, my fat fasty thing grew organically. I simply couldn't find a breakfast-containing-any-carbs that didn't spike me (e.g. yog) which meant I was eating too much protein. That made me feel sluggish. So I switched to bulletproof coffee for breakfast. Grew to resent the washing up and accompanying phaff. Downgraded to coffeencream, and have happily stuck there for nearly 6 months. Have this for brekkie Mon-Fri. And if I am the slightest bit peckish before bed in the evenings I have a low carb hot choc (cocoa powder, cream and erythritol), because I can never sleep if hungry. That gives me 17 hours or so on just fat. [URL='http://ketodietapp.com/Blog/post/2015/03/24/60-amazing-fat-bomb-recipes']Here is a link to the gloriosity that is the fat bomb/ball. Think low carb fudge, chocolates, lemon clouds... [/URL] The thing about fat fasting is that you never need be hungry, and your body realises very quickly that it needs to switch to ketosis. [/QUOTE]
