48-Hour Fasting - What Happens AFTER 24 Hours in Your Body

Who's watching while fasting

Each week I do a 40 - 42 hour fast and once a month I do a 96 hour fast. This is along with my daily 18/6 fasting and very low carb. I've lost 94 pounds with about 10 or so more to lose. I feel incredibly healthy at 66, actually in better shape and healthy weight of my entire life. IF and low carb is my lifestyle now. I'll never go back. We took a 5 day vacation to Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge Tennessee a couple weeks ago. I ate and drink and had fun! haha When I got back, I did a 96 hour fast and totally lost all the 5 pounds I had gained. Before I started this new way of living, I would have just packed on those extra 5 pounds forever. Thomas and a few others, (Dr. Ekberg, Dr. Berg, Dr. Fung) have been a complete life saver for me. My weight goal is very near. My life style change is permanent. Thank you Thomas!! Keep those great videos coming. And the BEST part of it all, it's all FREE!!!! Free not to eat, free to watch YouTube. I love that part.

completing my 48 hours fast in 6 hours!

I’m 46 hours into my fast, pre menstrual, I’ve been feeling super weak and super hungry thinking of food non stop. It’s not always sunshine and rainbows.

I’m pretty confident that there are so many many more benefits that haven’t been researched yet. Since I’ve started fasting, I’ve never had as much energy and just overall well being, focus, mental recall, weight loss….I could go on and on….

Please upvote this so Thomas sees this plz. A child with Gierke disease, I have been trying to do research on this. I don't understand why doctors don't believe keto would help with this. Their body can't store Glycogen, so why wouldn't it be better for them to run on ketones.

I completed a 48hr fast last Thursday and it was amazing. Good luck to all that are currently partaking in one. You CAN DO IT!!!!!!!

I do OMAD and once a quarter I do a 48 hour fast. Just finished mine yesterday and I feel great. Everyone who is going to do it, great for you! Keep it up and get even more healthy.

In 2019 I lost 100lbs in 10 months through IF and Keto. Unfortunately I started a new job in 2020 that is very high stress, and would eat when I got home and mess up my fasts. Then everything else spiraled out of control and I was back up 90lbs last week. When you announced the 48 hour fast it sparked me for some reason, and I’m back on board. Lost 10lbs already and still going strong. Thanks for always dropping knowledge on us.

I’m sure I’m not the only one, but you are changing my life. I didn’t think I could do this fasting challenge, but I’ve got 12 more hours to go and I feel great. I’m hoping this is healthy to do every week.

I'm in my 48 hour fast. I'm so ready. My husband is onboard with this fast.😀 Thank you Thomas.🍵

Today’s the day boys and girls! Let’s do this!

I did my first 24 hour fast and felt fabulous! I've been doing 16/8. Next on the list is 48hour fast. I did notice my energy went up! I'm hooked now!

Started at 360 and im down to 340 with two-mad and Omad integration. My back pain is almost non existent now. And no waking up in the night with acid shooting through my nose. Humans aren’t meant to eat 3-5 meals a day

I've been doing fasting along with changing what I eat, and when, and my life has CHANGED. I'm 61 and feel better than I did at 40. No more chronic inflammation, no more fat gut, no more bloated feeling, and my sex drive is through the roof. I do 100 pushups and 100 curls with a 25 lb dumbell every day. Change your life, folks.

I do 23/1 for a year and recently add 48 hours, once a week. I’m athlete female, 44 years old. My body fat is 10.5%. I feel phenomenon! I’m a marathoner. I train 6 days week, long run and weight training. The energy is up through the roof, more focus while working, more efficient. Thank you Thomas and other I.F. Gurus.

You are inspirational, motivational and an extremely proficient educator. Thank you Thomas. I’m ready to fast 😉

Man, I so appreciate these videos! They have made a HUGE difference in my understanding of exactly how food, exercise, and lifestyle affect my overall health. Thank you so much… blessings to you and your lovely family.

What I appreciate most about you and your content is the way you are relatable and speaking in ways that brings the science down to a human level. Been a minute since I was in college and physiology studies....but I 100% understood what you were teaching! Thank you for being a shining star in our often muddled fitness pool full of overnight gurus. I also ordered the LMNT hydration to aid in my fasting. I'm 36hrs in on this one and going to 48...my longest fast since I've started IF. I have so many questions and so much to learn!

This came just in time! I’m about to start my second round of “long term” fasting. Thanks for the information!!
