The fasting proposed by Kevin (and Hugh and the Rock) is called Leangains and I've been doing it for years. This app looks really nice, but why measure the fasting period? I only ate between noon and 8 pm. Every day. So tracking it would be kinda redundant? Really looking forward to how it evolves though!

I'm sorry, but I have to be the doubter here. First of all, fasting makes your blood sugar levels drop. Some people don't handle that very well (i.e. me). After fasting, it takes my body hours to recover. So people, talk to your doctors first! Second, I am an observant Jew and we have six fast days throughout the year. And I can tell you that there's absolutely nothing to track: you stop eating, and then after a certain amount of time you eat. The end. What in the world are you tracking here? And finally, this strikes me as the latest hipster dietary fad. Eating Soylent and/or organic and/or kale wasn't enough, so how about we just stop eating altogether and track it according to our circadian rhythm! With an app! Woohoo! Just eat, in measure, and in a healthful way, without being extreme. And if you want to identify with poverty, support an app that prevents food waste or donate to a soup kitchen. For goodness sake.

@miriamschwab I totally get your point and I agree - we shouldn't jump on fads without researching them and ideally getting medical advice. However, every person's body is quite different and there is a lot of research to suggest that fasting is something to at least consider. Like everything in life, there is no magic secret to overnight success, we all gotta find what works best for us.

@edowling Agreed. It's just that fasting seems so entitled too. People who lack sufficient food must look at people in the first world who are choosing not to eat as insane.

Granson says fasting is a quick way to be healthy :-)

Intermittent Fasting would be interesting to try this out with too -- https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/...

@dburka @calebd let me know if you need some help with discovery, it's kinda hard to find the app in the App Store if you don't have the URL...

@iamredlus Maybe you should start Yom Kippur?

I am really excited to try this to start 2017!

Very useful! I personally do a single 3 to 4 day fast/month. The main issue I encounter is adherence after day 2. Really could use an app that offers peer pressure!

I always wanted to try fasting but never had courage and chance to do it properly. When I saw this, I had a guilty feeling that this is meant to be for me.... especially after all the xmas food i had. Oh Lord...

I practice intermittent fasting and it definitely works. I'm interested to see how this works and if it is actually needed. It's quite simple really (for me), stop eating at 7pm and start again at 12pm the next day.
