Down 100 lbs using water fast, OMAD, etc

I just wrapped up a 42 day water fast and have been using water fasting, intermittent fasting, keto, OMAD, etc on the way down. I'm documenting my journey on my youtube channel at if you want to subscribe and/or follow. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCSEJjleHFwIC7GUW2RNCsNg?view_as=subscriber I'm about to start a new cycle till the end of April that will put me close to my college weight and the lowest I've been in decades. Just an old fat man trying to reclaim some of his youth :) If you have any suggestions on improving my results or things I'm missing, let me know! Cheers, Jay

How many days in a row did you actually not eat? I’ve been trying to figure out a rhythm that will work for me and I’m curious what’s worked for others - also curious if you lost 100 in 42 days :) congrats

Good work mate. I’ve done a few 5 day fasts now but seem to get unstuck after that, I know I need to do longer to start burning body fats rather then loosening water.

I have a problem that I work an active job, I don’t necessary feel like I need to eat or get overly light headed or weak but I worry that this might happen this in turn gets me eating and then down the rabbit hole haha.

Did you work while doing this and if so was it an active job? Any tips would be great because I know how hard it can be.
