Is there a specific group like ketogenics forum that focuses on EF for weight loss?

I was wondering if anyone knew of a forum like this one which focuses specifically on EF for weight loss? Any pointers would be most appreciated.

We have a fasting forum here. You should check it out. Many people here use fasting for weight loss.

I’m using extended fasting for weight loss right now. I’m on day 14 of a 40 day water fast. I joined these forums on day 6 when keto flu was hitting me and I was looking for support. Got plenty of info to keep going.

The fasting categories do get a lot of IF posts, not always distinguishing it as that and just calling it fasting - pretty sure I messed up a couple of responses barking up the wrong tree that way. :smile: :flushed:

I don’t personally consider IF - for me - as fasting, technically… if I eat that day, I didn’t fast that day. But I don’t generally enjoy short 36/72 hour fasts because of the grehlin - it’s like doing the hardest part of the fast over and over again. So I always do 4-8 days. Been doing this on and off for maybe 10 years now and it’s the only way I lose weight. If I’m eating, I eat IF/keto and work out to gain. Or I’m off the wagon and it’s all going pear shaped, that too :smiley: .

But there are discussions in there about extended fasting, to be sure.

There’s a couple of extended fasting groups on Reddit, but they’re quieter than here.

Have you checked out the EXTENDED sub forum?

There is a reddit subforum on it too.

Yes, thank you. That’s what I’m talking about, and you posted the same Reddit link I did. Great minds and all that.
