It’s easy to fall down the fasting rabbithole when you’re trying to kick those last few kilos. But feast days are just as important for your metabolism, mouth and your mindset. Here’s a reminder to enjoy them.
Remember, feasting is an important part of intermittent fasting. As Dr. Jason Fung says: “The beneficial hormonal changes that happen during intermittent fasting are entirely prevented by the constant intake of food [and by constant calorie restriction]. It is the intermittency of the fasting that makes it so much more effective.”
So, if you’re in need of a reminder to enjoy that cheat meal, that feast day, that chocolate, or that taco… we’ve got you!
You see Master Fasters, feasting is just as important as fasting. And just like we need motivation to challenge ourselves and work hard, we also need motivation to take care of ourselves and relax. Enjoy those feast days and let us know in the comments if you have any other awesome quotes about food, friends or feasting. We’d love to hear your faves!
