For me it took a full 6 months of intermittent fasting along with 40 + hr fasts, bodyweight exercise and then cardio to see any significant loss.

Anyone trying to lose weight should plan for minimum 6months time frame. You won't see results for at least 3 months.
Get a digital scale and track ur water weight so UK when you're actually losing fat.

I don't think recommending people to do 40 + hour fasts is a good idea.

What did you mean with '40 + hours fasts'?

[โ€“] Dkarma@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

That I did 40+ hr fasts just like it says.
