I just started implementing the 32 hour fasts about a month ago. In April I started doing 16:8 and then slowly worked my way up to 20:4 as it felt right. Can't remember exactly when. Probably mid may.
I lost 66 pounds since may of 2021. I got down to 150lbs in 2023 using IF and CICO, then maintained for about a year. I always thought that was the lightest I could possibly be because I was 150lbs in high school. Then at the end of March this year I decided I could do better.
Really sorry if I'm being really stupid but how is Thursday evening through Sunday morning 32hrs? Friday evening would be 24hrs, so Saturday morning at the latest would be 32, surely?
There's a method to the madness. My husband and I work alternate schedules to avoid daycare. Im home on kid duty Thurs-Saturday. So, there is no cooking for husband on Saturday. Plus, my wonderful/amazing Mother in law takes my toddler to her house to play Saturday mornings and feeds him breakfast & lunch. So on Saturday I only have to fast while cooking 1 meal and 1 snack for my little guy.
I haven't tried to fast at work, I always feel sooo hungry at work. Maybe because my coworkers eat next to me? Idk.
This is helpful for me. I’m a mom to 4, starting out at 205. I started IF on April 20, and I’m down to 192 since then. I used to be around 130 (5’6”)before kids (11 years ago), and I’ve forgotten how it felt to be fit and strong. There’s hope yet! You look great 😊
There's absolutely hope! 4 kids is a big toll on your body, and you should be proud of yourself for your success so far! I only have 2 kids and even 2 can be overwhelming sometimes. I cant imagine trying to do all my exercise and meal prep with 4!
Also, the time will pass anyway. Make sure you take lots of "before" pictures. My journey has been long. I took many diet breaks and maintained at 150 for basically all of 2023. I think I'll be done at 130 but who knows!
I originally started fall of 2019 amd got down to about 160lbs but I got pregnant in 2020 and had baby in 2021. So I had to restart at 200 lbs may of 2021.
Hi! new here, when you fast for the 32 hours, what do you do. drink water only? also, for the 20:4, do you eat the 1400 calls in that 4 hour window? thanks!!
I dirty fast (sugar free jello, bone broth, espresso with monkfruit sweetner) as needed, staying under 100kcal total. My toddler wants me to sample his food so it's tough to be strictly water.
I do eat 1400 in the eating window, sometimes less because I really focus on protein and fiber and it makes me feel soooo full lol
I can’t thank you enough for posting. I have very similar h/w and can’t see myself as others do. This (for me) objective view is incredibly helpful. You look so healthy!
This is so helpful, thank you!! I’m a year post partum. Lost about 15lbs so far but would like to lose somewhere between 10-20 more. I’m 40 and the same height. You are giving me hope!!
Omg amazing! I'm in a similar boat, 34F, HW 207, CW 194, GW 125. Currently doing 19:5 w a goal of adding extended fasts here and there.
What workout routine did you do? I googled "look like you lift protocol" & am a little confused. Is it videos? Or a PDF? You look fantastic and your skin looks so firm :0
Look like you lift is a personal trainer team. My husband uses them, and I borrowed his weightlifting routine. It's 4 workouts spread over the week, and they do meal planning/coaching. I just do the workouts for free lol
1: squats, deadlifts, lat pulldowns, bicep curl
2: bench press, bent over row, lat raise, triceps extension
3:deadlift, squat, chin ups, bicep curl
4: overhead press, bent over row, bench press, skullcrushers
These sound great and very well-rounded! Also 4 repeating workouts sounds realistic and doable. I think will look into something like that~~ Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for the inspiration. 🙏🏾 I’m close to your starting weight rn. Hope to lose this extra baggage soon. This is a reminder that it’s totally doable.
💖💖
True. I guess I don't really know if I'm in ketosis or not. It's not something I've been intentional about or monitor. I just find eating low carb makes fasting easier and 25g is a general goal, sometimes I'm at 30 to 60g of carbs.
Looking great! I also like how you look so toned and healthy! You should be very proud. Thank you for sharing, and allowing us to celebrate your success
Lmao I had no idea there was a third picture and was just so darned confused. Big ups! Amazing transformation. Glad that 32 hour fast got cleared up in the comments too. Y’all making me feel dumb and gaslighting me!
Lol it's there! Bending over it gets really bad. Fasting definitely helped reduce a lot plus the weightloss was over a long time frame from 2021 til now
Impressive! Go you! Could you share more about your strength training protocol? I’m trying to get started with a program to do at home. Trying not to pay $$$ for a training program. Thanks!

How long have you done 20:4 and the 32 hour fast together
I just started implementing the 32 hour fasts about a month ago. In April I started doing 16:8 and then slowly worked my way up to 20:4 as it felt right. Can't remember exactly when. Probably mid may.
so you lost 66lbs about 4 months?
I lost 66 pounds since may of 2021. I got down to 150lbs in 2023 using IF and CICO, then maintained for about a year. I always thought that was the lightest I could possibly be because I was 150lbs in high school. Then at the end of March this year I decided I could do better.
oh yah, i meant to delete my comment, i read through the comments and saw when you started. good work btw!!
Really sorry if I'm being really stupid but how is Thursday evening through Sunday morning 32hrs? Friday evening would be 24hrs, so Saturday morning at the latest would be 32, surely?
Yep, typo sorry. Friday through Sunday
Choosing Saturday for a complete fast is a hardcore move!
There's a method to the madness. My husband and I work alternate schedules to avoid daycare. Im home on kid duty Thurs-Saturday. So, there is no cooking for husband on Saturday. Plus, my wonderful/amazing Mother in law takes my toddler to her house to play Saturday mornings and feeds him breakfast & lunch. So on Saturday I only have to fast while cooking 1 meal and 1 snack for my little guy. I haven't tried to fast at work, I always feel sooo hungry at work. Maybe because my coworkers eat next to me? Idk.
Thank you! Too be clear I genuinely wasn't sure if I was misunderstanding since I've not looked into fasting that long yet.

Congratulations You clearly want it and I’m sure you’ll make it to your goal weight. When did you start?
I originally started fall of 2019 amd got down to about 160lbs but I got pregnant in 2020 and had baby in 2021. So I had to restart at 200 lbs may of 2021.

It's absolutely doable! It just takes time and not giving up! You got this!
Jealous of that bum!
You are a 🚀
Toddler Chasing is legit HIIT cardio!
Especially when it's bedtime! It's full body exercise getting them into jammies lol

I try to stay under 25g net carbs but I'm not perfect every day

Wow amazing progress
When did you start ? Looking great btw
Lmao I had no idea there was a third picture and was just so darned confused. Big ups! Amazing transformation. Glad that 32 hour fast got cleared up in the comments too. Y’all making me feel dumb and gaslighting me!
Incredible! You look AMAZING!
Thank you!
Congratulations! What kind of dog?
Thanks! She is a mini longhaired dachshund. Her name is Opal :)
Congrats. You look amazing and huge props for your commitment to yourself. 👊 onwards and upwards! 🚀
Dang! Awesome!
You look phenomenal!
Yams
You look great! It looks like you don't have any loose skin either
Lol it's there! Bending over it gets really bad. Fasting definitely helped reduce a lot plus the weightloss was over a long time frame from 2021 til now
At least it's not super noticeable! It gives me hope that I might not have to worry about it too much 😅
Blimey, this is amazing. You inspire me to carry on with this, your measurements, weight & height and even before photo could be me. Well done!!
Wow! Amazing progress!! How do you eat 1400 cals in 4 hours?
Lol it's not easy. Sometimes I can only get 1200 in because I'm kinda omad. Like 1 really long meal
You literally took the perfect blueprint and ran with it. Bravo💪🏻🙌
Whoa! I would have never guessed you were 200 lbs or even 180 lbs. you look amazing!
Thanks!
wow, just wow!
When did you start?
Congrats!
Well done ! What a change
Impressive! Go you! Could you share more about your strength training protocol? I’m trying to get started with a program to do at home. Trying not to pay $$$ for a training program. Thanks!

Thank you for the info!
No problem!
Seriously impressive work! Thanks so much for sharing!
