the number one mistake that people make that causes them to lose no weight
whatsoever is hey guys what's up welcome back to my channel if you guys are new
here welcome my name is Caitlyn and in today's video we're gonna be talking about common
intermittent fasting mistakes. Yes, there are mistakes that you can make while
you're intermittent fasting and I dont want to see you guys make any of these mistakes I
want you guys to have the best results possible so if you guys are into videos
like this and you guys are not already subscribed to go ahead and hit that
subscribe button and with that being said let's get into the video all right
you guys so let's get into what mistake number one is choosing the wrong plan
for you now there are many different methods of intermittent fasting there's
the 16/8 method which I do there is the OMAD method which is
one meal a day there is alternate day fasting if there's a lot of other
different plans that you can choose but choose one that works best for your
lifestyle don't go into it expecting to already start a 20 hour fast if you
haven't ever fasted before ever in your life, that's just not realistic start
with a 12 hour fast work your way up to a 16 hour fast and then maybe you can do
a 20 hour fast but work your way up to it you're not going to be an expert
overnight don't expect results overnight because you're just not going to get
results overnight this takes time this is the weight loss tool this is not like
a weight loss answer this is not you do intermittent fasting and then the next
day you're just the body that you want to be this takes some time so choose a
plan that you think is going to be realistic for you realistic for your
lifestyle so that is my first tip for you guys that you don't want to make
that mistake of choosing the wrong plan another common intermittent fasting
mistake that people make once they've already chosen the plan that works best
for them is breaking your fast with junk reason number one you don't want to
break your fast with junk food is because it's not going to keep you bolt
throughout the day you're not going to get any kind of nutrients from it let's
say you're just like oh I'm just gonna wake up and break my vows with a cupcake
like a cupcake is not going to keep you full it's not gonna have the nutrients
that you so choose something that's on the
healthier side whether it is just a quick avocado toast make sure that
you're getting in a protein a fat of fiber something that's gonna help you to
stay folder so you're not snacking throughout the day consuming more
calories than you need which leads me into the next mistake which is binging
when you break your fast now I know you guys haven't eaten in however many hours
you fasted let's say it's 12 hours 16 hours however long you fasted and you're
hungry I get it but this isn't a free-for-all this doesn't mean just go
and eat all the food that you can because you're fast is broken still have
some self-control try to eat in moderate portions and don't go crazy don't binge
on anything just because you were feeling hungry at the time your body
actually has a hormone called ghrelin if you eat less than you think that you
normally need you will actually feel full if you give your body some time so
don't rush it don't think that you need to eat everything that you can because
that will just cause you to not see results and not allow you to lose weight
and you don't want that so don't fall victim to that because I know how easy
that can get just like mindlessly eating if you're bored or anything still try to
track what you eat so you're not going overboard so you can see Rizzo another
mistake that people make is being too strict with their plan you don't want to
be so strict with yourself that you're not allowing yourself the grace that
intermittent fasting gives you intermittent fasting allows you to not
have to think about food 24/7 what's going to be my breakfast was gonna be my
lunch that's going to be my dinner it allows you to just focus on less food
throughout the day so you're not constantly thinking about it now let's
say you chose the 16-8 plan you're badbrakes at 12 o'clock and it's 11:45
you're hungry and you're on lunch you're at work and you're ready to go eat you
don't have to be super strict with yourself just try to keep it around the
same time every day your body's not going to be like oh oh my god she ate at
11:45 oh my gosh like no you're gonna be okay
try to eat around just the same time relatively every day but don't be too
strict on yourself don't be like oh my gosh I can't do this with my friends or
I can't do that because of this just don't make it a normal habit just you
regulate yourself discipline yourself and you'll see results just don't be too
strict with it because you're going to start resenting intermittent fasting and
you're not going to want to do it anymore because you just feel there's
too many rules to it and last but not least the number one mistake that people
make the cause of them to lose no weight whatsoever is learning all about
intermittent fasting and by taking no action you're learning as much as you
can wanting it to be super perfect so you don't make any mistakes you're gonna
make mistakes you're gonna learn along the way and you're gonna fix those
mistakes but in order to do that you have to try or else you will see no
results time is not going to wait for you there's never gonna be a right time
can't keep telling yourself I'm gonna start on Monday Monday never rolls
around make a plan and start now because you will be so glad that you did if you
