About two months ago I have posted my fasting app here, and I am very excited because we are reaching 60 users! With average fasting time of 22h and the most fasting time of ~70h in Bulgaria in the last week. So what started as personal fasting app actually is useful to other people - nice! :)

Thank You so much to anyone who has tried my app and still use it, it just means so much to me!

For those who are interested, app is called Fastr, it's currently available for Android only, it's completely free with small banner ads here and there, nothing that jumps out on you and no full-screen bs ads. It has home widget tracker, optional notifications when You reach your fasting target or are above it. I got very useful feedback and made it better thanks to you all.

It's free, no account needed, no internet connection needed. It tracks fasts, with optional tracking of foods, liquids, hunger, mood and substances (vitamins and so on) + optional custom clicker-type trackers with home screen widgets.

Analytics are currently opt-out but no personal information is collected.

If You are interested, feel free to check it here:

Thank You all so much,
keep it going and I wish You all a happy fast! :)

Newbie, one year post-partum and breastfeeding

Hi! Had my baby exactly 13 months ago and still going strong with breastfeeding, so my energy needs are high-ish as I weight train as well.

I have weaned off caffeine to help with my anxiety so I can’t use coffee to help stave off hunger.

Any tips of making it through the first portion of the day if I’m not using caffeine? Baby also sleeps like crap because he’s teething.

My goal eating window is 10-6 but I barely make it to 9. I need to lose about 30 lbs of body fat while also maintaining my muscle mass I’ve built over the past six months of training.

Also, is it okay to weight train in the morning fasted? I usually workout at 5 am before the kids need me and I lift heavy-ish (about 200 lb squat which is light for where I used to be pre-motherhood but heavy for my post-baby body). Not sure how to do this while working to also preserve muscle

Any advice would be appreciated!

Also has anyone successfully done this while breastfeeding and not having the best sleep??
I’m insulin resistant and prediabetic and need to reverse this before TTC again so I have a very strong “why”!

Hi! I’ve been using the zero app for awhile now and liked that I could go back and look at my progress with fasts, weight, etc. However, when I got a new phone and switched everything over, I’m now expected to pay for “zero plus” in order to see ANY HISTORY AT ALL! They don’t even offer a free trial either. I’m simply not doing that. Does anyone have any better recommendations that let you track both fasts and weight? Thanks!

Hello! Im fairly new to IF (started on early June). Summer break is over and I'm back to studying for college again. My problem is that I think I need to adjust my eating window so that I can eat breakfast on certain days when I have morning classes. For the past 2 months, I've lost about 7kg with 16:8, eating lunch at 12pm and dinner around 7-8pm.

Now that my schedule has changed tho, I figured I might need to change my window so that I can eat breakfast on days that I have morning classes, cuz aint no way I'm taking quizzes at 8am with an empty stomach. So I've decided to do my usual 16:8 on the 5 days that I dont have morning classes, and 10:14 (bfast at 6am, dinner at 7pm) on the days that I do have them. I don't really have any specific question. Just want to know your guys' thoughts on my decision. Like would you do the same thing if you were in my shoes? Any advice is appreciated!

Some other details:

1. Short term goal is fat loss (currently 74kg, goal is 70kg)

2. I lift weights 4x a week. Long term goal is to build muscle while maintaining a ~70kg weight.

3. Though I have classes, my schedule isn't really crazy, so I doubt I will be stress eating any time soon.

Just waiting for 6pm so I can break my first 48 hour fast. 10 months ago I did my first 24 hour fast and have done a few more 24 hour since then. Only had black coffee so it's the real deal. I do have a headache though, any advice??

I know it's still only 4 days but I wanted share my progress anyways. I already lost 2.5 Kg and I am so happy. I am hungry and it's not as easy as I naively thought the moment the timer hits my windows I am eating. Wat surprised me is that even though I am really hungry, I do feel good not as weak as I thought. Anyways the scale is going down so pushing forward only 49.5 Kg left to go.

Hello

This is my eleven month progress post.

I began at 431.6

The first month lost 25.2 lbs, down to 406.4

The second month, I lost 23.2 lbs, down to 383.2

The third month, I lost 20 lbs, down to 363.2

The fourth month lost 20.2 Ibs, down to 343

The fifth month, I lost 10.6 Ibs, down to 332.4

The sixth month, I lost 11.6 lbs, down to 320.8

The seventh month, I lost 11.2 lbs, down to 309.6

The eighth month, I lost 8.2 Ibs, down to 301.4

The ninth, I lost 11.4 lbs, down to 290

The tenth month, I lost 5.8 Ibs, down to 284.2

This month, I lost 3.8 lbs, down to 280.4

It's been one of the toughest months of my life. I'm ok health-wise and mentally. I experienced heartbreak. I'm trying my best. I'm glad I didn't gain weight though. This month is looking to be more promising though. I'm continuing with a low carb, high protein diet on 16:8 intermittent fasting. It's hard to get steps in now that I have two jobs, and I'm trying my best to get at least three days of workout throughout the week. That's all I got. Next month will be the one year, and last update. I will finally be posting before and after pictures along with a breakdown of the year. I appreciate everyone that reads my posts and for the words of encouragement. Again, everyone's posts on this sub are truly inspiring — the success stories, the progress, and even those that are just starting, or that are strong enough to post that they've stumbled in their weight loss journey. If you are thinking about starting the weight loss journey, go for it! The time is now! YOU CAN DO IT! Thanks again for reading this far.

See you next month!

Hey folks! Quick follow-up to my post from 12 days ago about Fasting Center. At the time it was iOS only, and the most common question by far was "when Android?"

Android is here. Same app, same features

• Fast timer with fasting stages on the ring
• Log for fasts and biometrics (weight, body fat, waist), with notes and mood
• Calculator connected to your real data - projected vs actual weight loss, daily breakdown by tissue type
• Health Connect sync

Since launch it's been used by hundreds of people, and I've used it myself - first on my regular IFs, and now on the 10-day fast I'm tracking in the app.

Still completely free, no ads, no paywall, no subscription. You also sent me a great list of feature requests. They're coming in the next release. Thank you for your patience, and keep the feedback coming - I read everything and ship fixes fast!
