My 30-Day Intermittent Fasting Experiment: What I Learned

Hey there, my fellow Indian readers! So, I recently embarked on a 30-day journey of intermittent fasting, and let me tell you, it was quite the ride. If you’ve ever heard of intermittent fasting but weren’t sure what it’s all about, or maybe you’ve even tried it before but struggled to stick with it, then keep on reading because I’ve got some insights to share with you.

A Peek into My Fasting Adventure

Alright, so picture this – me, diving headfirst into an 18-hour fast every single day for a whole month. No small feat, let me tell you. I started with high hopes and a touch of skepticism, wondering if this trendy weight loss method was all it’s cracked up to be.

One of the first things I noticed was how rarely I actually let myself get hungry. It dawned on me that in our world of food abundance, intentional hunger is a rarity. Dr. Satchin Panda, a fasting expert, shed some light on how our bodies are wired to thrive on fasting, and how it can benefit our digestion, metabolism, and overall health.

Debunking the Myths

Now, there’s a lot of conflicting information out there about intermittent fasting. Some studies claim it’s a miracle worker, while others warn of its dangers. The truth? Well, it’s somewhere in between. Dr. Peter Attia highlights the importance of caloric restriction in fasting benefits, and emphasizes that it’s not a one-size-fits-all solution.

So, does intermittent fasting work or not? The answer lies in your personal habits and goals. It’s all about finding what works for you and your body.

Lessons Learned and Future Plans

After 30 days of fasting, I discovered a newfound awareness of my relationship with food and managed to shed those stubborn extra pounds. While I plan to continue fasting, I’ll be modifying my approach to fit my needs better, opting for a circadian fast instead.
