\"\"Intermittent Fasting:\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

The newest \u00a0old thing with a fancy name.\u00a0<\/strong><\/h2>\n

I have been getting lots of emails recently asking me if\u00a0Intermittent Fasting is helpful for people with Binge Eating Issues.<\/strong>\u00a0I have lots of thoughts, but I want to start by telling you about my early experiences with IF.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The very first time I learned about intermittent fasting was in 1985. I was in 5th grade and my best friend\u2019s upstairs neighbor, who was in 6th grade had lost 13 pounds through intermittent fasting. I mean, we were children and it was 1985 so it wasn\u2019t really intermittent fasting, it was that Shoshana drank a cup of tea for breakfast,\u00a0 a diet coke for lunch and then whatever her parents gave her for dinner.\u00a0 I thought that sounded CRAZY! But then in 7th grade, when my hips and breasts started coming in and my period started, I thought that I would try it. Of course it wasn\u2019t called intermittent fasting back then.\u00a0It was called\u00a0 \u201cthe diet that we\u00a0all went on so that our parents wouldn\u2019t know that we were dieting.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Puberty, incidentally is a high risk time for girls to begin eating disorders. That\u2019s because\u00a0in order to start menstruating, girls\u2019 bodies\u00a0begin to put on body fat and the changes that take place can seem sudden and out of control. I remember for sure\u00a0that when I began maturing, my mother made many comments about how my body was changing and that I\u2019d better watch out because once I got my period, weight would be impossible to lose. Wow! Crazy messaging!\u00a0 But I believed it and wanted to do whatever I could to stop that cycle. So I went on Shoshana\u2019s special diet of tea for breakfast, diet coke for lunch and dinner was whatever my mother gave me.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Nowadays, you can\u2019t open your computer or look at your phone without seeing something about intermittent fasting. An eating disorder for adolescent girls turned into a way of life for tech bros. People have written books about it, people sell programs, apps, meal plans\u2026 it\u2019s just the next diet plan that people are looking to cash in on. I mean, Shoshana Kaufman could have written a book back in 1985, it would be called \u201cHow To Diet Without Your Parents Finding Out.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Intermittent Fasting: Or How to Diet Without Your Parents Finding Out By Shoshana Kaufman \u2013 Grade 6. P.S.24, Bronx, NY 1985<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n

Chapter One \u2013<\/strong>\u00a0Don\u2019t Eat Breakfast<\/span><\/p>\n

Chapter Two<\/strong>\u2013 Don\u2019t Eat Lunch<\/span><\/p>\n

Chapter Three-\u00a0<\/strong>Eat Whatever Your Parents make you for dinner<\/span><\/p>\n

Often I will write about certain diets and I\u2019ll be attacked by people for having a differing opinion about them. I wrote a<\/span>\u00a0post about low carb diets<\/a>\u00a0some years ago and got attacked by the low carb mafia. Really nasty, nasty emails and comments. Here\u2019s the thing\u2026 this is a blog for people who are trying to recover from an eating disorder. And for people who have eating disorders or disordered eating behaviors, these kinds of rulesy eating plans are\u00a0always<\/em>\u00a0contraindicated.\u00a0 However, there are so many promises that intermittent fasting makes that people are being led to believe that it\u2019s a panacea for all that ails them.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Intermittent fasting has lots of promises behind it:<\/strong><\/span><\/h5>\n

Promise #1. You will become \u201cclear-headed\u201d and able to concentrate better if you\u2019re not worried about eating.<\/span><\/p>\n

My thoughts: Are you able to concentrate when you\u2019re hungry? I\u2019m not. In fact all I can think about is food. I remember being in school as a kid during my restriction days and just zoning out while I fantasized about food. I did this in college too and early on in my adult life when I was still in my eating disorder. In fact, the more I restricted, the less engaged in life I was because I was just focused on not eating and fantasizing about food and what I would eat when I finally let myself eat!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Are there people who are clear-headed? I\u2019m not sure, but what I do know for sure is that\u00a0my anorexic patients do come to a place of feeling almost ethereal when they\u2019re not eating. Why? It\u2019s likely because their<\/span>\u00a0brain and their organs are beginning to shut down<\/a>. Their body is using less energy and trying to conserve what it has to use.<\/span><\/p>\n

Promise #2. It gives you lots of energy.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

My thoughts: Well, as someone who was an athlete in high school and continues to be athletic now, I can tell you for sure that not eating NEVER gave me more energy. On the days that I would do Shoshana\u2019s diet, I was super sluggish in swim practice. On the days that I did eat breakfast, I would fly through the water. As I got older and started running, I had the same experience. A banana goes a long way before a morning run. A run on an empty stomach in the morning is nothing but a way to run out of gas immediately. Again, I have no idea why people would suggest that their energy is increased. My suspicion is that if you are someone who wakes up and eats a very large and difficult to digest breakfast that creates more sluggishness in your day-to-day, then this would be an improvement. Yet that can also be solved with mindful eating, figuring out what gives your body energy and vitality through your own self-experimentation and trial and error. For instance, I\u2019ve figured out that breakfast cereal will leave me feeling sluggish and hungry, but eggs and cheese and fruit carries me straight through my morning and holds me until lunch. That\u2019s something I had to figure out on my own, not something that someone else could tell me. Your body, your needs. It\u2019s okay to experiment until YOU find what works for YOUR body. No one else can tell you that.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Promise #3. You will lose weight effortlessly<\/span><\/p>\n

My thoughts: Now here\u2019s when we come to the Binge Eating Disorder issue. When I did Shoshana\u2019s diet, I was very, very, very likely to binge at night. And honestly, I did that crazy diet for many years. I did it from the age of 12 until I was in my early 20\u2019s. Not every day of course, but I did it often and I binged pretty much every day. It was awful.\u00a0 And did I lose weight?\u00a0Actually, no I gained a good amount of weight because of the bingeing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

If you have an eating disorder, intermittent fasting is likely not the right path for you. Here are the reasons:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

People with eating disorders tend to have black and white thinking. Thus, if you are planning to restrict your food for a set amount of time and then you \u201cmess up,\u201d it\u2019s likely that it will trigger some extreme behaviors, like either a binge or compensatory exercise or a purge or a long period of restriction.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

People with eating disorders teeter between extremes so a full day of not eating could often lead to an evening of binge eating.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

People with eating disorders will often go to extremes to \u201cget it right\u201d even if their body tells them that they need to eat, so they might either completely ignore the cues of their bodies or they might engage in dangerous behaviors (like drugs or excessive coffee drinking) to ensure that they stick to their goals.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Do I think that there is anything valuable about Intermittent Fasting?\u00a0<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

If you have a propensity toward eating disorders, I\u2019m going to say that no, intermittent fasting is nothing more than the same diet you went on in elementary school that started this whole disordered eating thing to begin with. You could have written the book and sold the items. Intermittent fasting teaches you how to ignore your body\u2019s cues for hunger. And those of us with disordered eating have known how to do that for years. And we know what happens when we ignore our bodies\u2019 cues for hunger \u2013 when we are tired, our body fights back and we binge.\u00a0 Perhaps for people who eat mindlessly all the time, a day or two of intermittent fasting might help them to hear their bodies\u2019 cues for hunger and learn what that feels like, but beyond that, I don\u2019t believe that this is the best new thing. I think that people have found a way to\u00a0package an eating disorder into a new fangled diet with a fancy name.<\/span><\/p>\n

What\u00a0intermittent fasting\u00a0does is the same thing that all diets do, it takes away choice \u2013 and in that taking away of choice, people feel safer around food. It creates a structure where they can control their food intake. As\u00a0Soren Kierkegaard\u00a0said,\u00a0\u00a0\u201canxiety is the dizziness of freedom\u2026\u201d and it\u2019s true. People become so overwhelmed with choice around food and diets, that this feels like an easy way to take away the choice and limit their food intake.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As always, my opinion remains \u2013<\/span>\u00a0listen to your body, give it what it needs when it needs it<\/a>.\u00a0 You CAN trust your body to guide you toward what it needs to be healthy. Your body knows. I can promise you that. You might not always get it right, but the closer you listen, the better you will get to know your body. Your body has so much wisdom. Unlike 1000 or even 100 years ago, food is readily available to you and so you have the opportunity to give it yummy, nourishing food when it needs it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n
