Continued fasting will help you reduce the body weight. Does it assure with the retaining of body shape. People without proper workouts just reduce the food consumption. For a better and healthy living one should follow workouts along with fasting or diets.
But the thread is all about Intermittent Fasting, this is not a diet per se. Of course you can just reduced your food consumption, but what makes IF different is that you will not end for almost the duration of the whole day. So this is a big challenge for those who wanted to lose that extra pounds.

I agree with you that Intermittent Fasting is a very good method to lose weight and also build muscles. Unfortunetly a lot of trainers are promoting this as a bad method, probably because they have never tried it before and thats why this method is not so popular amoung people that visit gyms regulary.
Or maybe because those trainers doesn't understand the physiology of muscles. I tried doing weight lifting under IF and I must say that it doesn't affect my training at all. I can still lift the same amount of weights even in IF, so it's a good method if you really wanted to loss weight and gain muscles, as per my experience with IF.
During my time at the University, I learned through a training course that fasting is not recommended, because breakfast represents the most important meal of the day, if you want to reduce it, it is best to reduce food at dinner, try to eat balanced and exercise, since fasting can bring fatal problems over the years.

I had tried intermittent fasting for 3 months now. Before the fast my weight was 85 kg, after 3 months it went down to 69 kg. The process includes fasting for 12-16 hours, typically when we are sleeping. There is a 5-6 hours window time to eat usually between lunch time and 6pm dinner. After 6pm beyond, no food and only water is allowed. I hope this would help.
Thank for sharing this secret of weight loss with us and I hope those that need to loss weights should be able to commence this fasting so we can see more prove. I will sharing this fasting strategies with some of the sisters I have that need weights loss. 
I did this before and my feeling was refreshing after 1-2 days of intermittent fasting. But the discipline is hard for someone who's been loaded up with a lot of work and stress in life.
In the 14-16 hour period is when your body enters the kickstarts ketosis. It's when you reach full ketosis, it takes careful planning and extreme carb limiting, but intermittent fasting provides a shortcut to this fat-burning state. Once your body drains glucose, it is forced to burn through its fat reserves for energy in a process called ketosis. Ketosis improves your blood chemistry, reduces inflammation, and helps you drop weight fast. Within 5-8 weeks it's probable that you'll lose 8-12 lbs.

This would be more helpful if you will add proper exercises in between sleeping and eating,because intermittent fasting concerns only our eating habits and not our fitness health.i have a big respect in all kind of diet but for me it's more needed to have self control and care than doing this diets since no one will be more concern to our health but us only ~ snip ~
I don't know about the anti-aging effect though, but I have been doing IF's even if I'm a type 2 diabetic and so far I haven't had any side effects. Actually it really help me lower and most of the time normalizes my blood sugar without me taking any medications.
But I still continue to monitor by blood sugar and I'm not saying this is a perfect cure, it's a combination of diet and exercise as well.
The idea of intermittent fasting for weight loss is a great idea. It is also a great idea for anti-aging. One of the master anti-aging scientists, David Sinclair, uses intermittent fasting both, to keep his weight down, and to stay young.

Not be careful though, this method is not for everyone specially if you have some kind of conditions. I know it's effective method but you need to be very disciplined as well. So before someone wanted to try this method, better consult with your physician first. This is not for the faint of heart.
Right, I used this method before, 16/8. 16 hours fasting and 8 hours window for eating. My schedule for my loading is 2 pm - 10 pm. I also hit the gym without any food.
It's very difficult at the beginning because of the hunger pains, but I learn to control it and my senses are even sharp when I'm on IF, but damn when it's time to eat, I eat like a pig and I don't give a f**k as how calories I intake because I know I need to feed that body right away. Lol. I did this like 5 days in a week and 2 days off or cheating day.

Wow. The result is trully amazing. Thumbs up for the will power, because the only effective method for me is sport with some suplimets like Bio X4, for example. Maybe it will help you as well.
you are right it is a good way and it is also effective.
fasting is very much good thing not only in the case of losing weight but also keep our body fit.
I don't think fasting is healthy, especially not every day. You should at least eat in between meals. Even a little, healthy snack is better than not having anything after 6pm. If you continue doing this, this may take a toll on your body.
Thanks for this! I've been planning to do intermittent fasting for quite some time now but I've never really committed. Now that I know it can bring down my weight THAT much, I'll give it a try now. 
You should not fast, it is bad for your health, You should have proper diet to lose weight
You should not eat fast, you need to eat properly to lose weight, fast food is not good.
