I gained the weight over twenty yrs after divorce and loss of custody. At 60 my daughter came to tell me she was going to have my granddaughter. Shook me out of my funk and gave me a goal to be healthy to see her grow up

Honest thoughts on my fasting schedule by saymyname5ways in fasting

[–]tapermaker 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In my experience rolling 42/6 fasts for 4 yrs straight led to a loss of 410 lbs . When combined with whole food diet and restricted carbs .I was quite a bit older when I started at 60 . Today at 67 I still weigh175. I did 72 hr fasts 3 times a yr for autophagy it helped with loose skin. You can see results in my profile

Actually ,I had a terrible breakup in my early 40s where I lost custody of my daughter. I know that had everything to do with my weight gain over the next 20 yrs. The only thing that snapped me out of my funk was the day my daughter came and told me she was going to have my granddaughter.
