I'm a woman, in my late 40s, who is of normal weight, and is very active. I would like to loose 10 pounds (still considered to be in the normal range) and am going to give fasting a try. I'm not sure why you need to fast though when you are a man in your 30s who is very active. Shouldn't you be lean even if you don't fast. I know I would be very lean if I didn't have problems with binge eating.

@sethinsb i think it's a great method but what i like most about eat-stop-eat is the flexibility of only having to think about it one or two days in a week instead of five. Also, i found it easier to rule out ALL food for 24 hours compared to refraining from eating too much most of the time. :) but that's just me...

do you think you can change your body in one week by going crazy and working out hardcore for 115 hours in 1 week?

Dr. Atkins was fluid overweight because he had to take steroids because of his heart condition in the end.

what about limiting yourself to small controlled amounts for say the weekdays, and then eating whatever you feel like on the weekend? I think this is much healthier and your 'feasting' periods will decline in proportion over time.

I am finding that I am eating much less now have overcome fear about "starvation mode" I am less obsessed with food, It is not easy to change...I intend to follow what you are presenting. Sounds true to me. I once worked for the worlds largest diet organization,met the founder in 1978, and she was pretty fat, employees weren't allow to go more than 2 pounds over their goal weight. You won't find that in any weight loss research..what did Dr. Atkins weigh at the end anyway??

I am in the over 50 obese women group... however, I am moderately active, I have tried everything I know to lose the weight, but intermitent fasting makes the most sense. Eating nothing for 36 hours once a week is actually easier than eating small controlled amounts.

He was using himself as an example. He is saying that a study done on a certain group of individuals doesn't always apply to another group of individuals and to make sure that what you are researching applies to you directly.

Why would a lean, very active man be interested in the results of a study on weight loss? Why would he think the study's results would apply to him? This makes no sense.
