I cannot in all honesty say I didn't lose any. But I didn't lose close to any of the weight I expected to lose. Which is surprising since in the past I did get to my goal weight after a 2 week fast. I guess there are diminishing returns to fasting. I was convinced it would work because I saw a documentary about a fasting clinic in Europe where an overweight woman fasted a month and lost all excess weight. It should've worked 🤷♀️

I imagine it depends on so many different factors.
I tried longer fasts (for health rather than weight loss), and I loved how I felt during the fasts themselves but then afterwards my hunger signals were often messed up for over a week. I'll try again once I'm more settled with carnivore.
Do you use intermittent fasting? I don't hear the same dramatic health results but I think they probably accumulate, and a lot of people use it for weight loss.
I am on OMAD daily. OMAD stands for One Meal A Day. It also referred to as the Warrior Diet because it is a 23 hour fast, 1 hour to eat your meal. Yes, I am desperately seeking thinness 🙄
