Some people are able to incorporate alcohol in moderation, and on occasion while losing weight but Dr Fung recommends avoiding it.
The thing is too many people are lazy and want an easy fix. I see so many people doing intermittent fasting and one meal per day and yes they are dropping the pounds but they will end up looking like spaghetti. Slim and soft with no shape and tone to their body because they are not doing any form of strength training or body weight exercise to build/preserve muscle.
Fastng is amazing, no doubt, and its a god send for myself and millions.
But it is not a panacea for health and fitness. Your goal shouldn't be just to lose weight, but to be fit and healthy.
You cant optimize your health without including exercise.
Dont blame fasting for muscle loss if your'e not doing anything to gain or maintain muscle.
How can people expect to engage in a long term fasting protocol and not lose ANY muscle whatsoever without taking any action to gain, preserve or maintain muscle mass?
Did you have muscle tone at 400 pounds? Why would you expect to have any at 150 pounds without doing anything to achieve or maintain it?
Let's be sensible here.
I’m about to embark on this fast to lower my 200 morning sugars. I’m a bit nervous but very optimistic. I hope I have the strength and the motivation to go through with it. My 8.0 A1C scares the life out of me. Thank you for sharing your total experience, not just posting critical comments. Perhaps once I achieve my goals I can help someone else, the way you helped me. I’m thankful to Dr. Fung for his message. I have been watching the videos for some time. It’s time to put myself to this test.
