#angus barbieri

[transparentgentlemenmarker]

Angus Barbieri was a Scottish man who gained significant attention for his extraordinary fasting feat in the 1960s. In 1965, at the age of 27, Barbieri embarked on a prolonged fast that lasted for a remarkable 382 days. I fasting regimen was motivated by his desire to lose weight. At the beginning of his fast, he weighed around 456 pounds (207 kilograms), and his goal was to reach a healthier weight. Under medical supervision, he consumed supplements to ensure he received essential vitamins and minerals, as well as electrolyte replacements. During the extended fast, Angus Barbieri lost a considerable amount of weight, shedding around 276 pounds (125 kilograms). His weight loss progress was closely monitored by doctors, and he exhibited no adverse health effects during the fasting period. Medical professionals observed that his body was able to utilize stored fat for energy, which helped sustain him throughout the fast. Barbieri's fasting record is considered one of the longest medically monitored fasts in history

Angus Barbieri était un Écossais qui a attiré beaucoup d'attention pour son extraordinaire exploit de jeûne dans les années 1960. En 1965, à l'âge de 27 ans, il s'est lancé dans un jeûne prolongé qui a duré 382 jours. Mon régime de jeûne était motivé par mon désir de perdre du poids. Au début je pesais environ 207kgs et mon objectif était d'atteindre un poids qui ne mettait pas ma vie en danger. Sous surveillance médicale, il a consommé des complémentaires alimentaires pour s'assurer de recevoir des vitamines et des minéraux essentiels, ainsi que des remplacements d'électrolytes. Au cours du jeûne prolongé, Angus Barbieri a perdu une quantité considérable de poids, perdant 125kgs. Ses progrès en matière de perte de poids ont été étroitement surveillés par des médecins et il n’a présenté aucun effet néfaste sur sa santé pendant la période de jeûne. Les professionnels de la santé ont observé que son corps était capable d'utiliser les graisses stockées pour produire de l'énergie, ce qui l'aidait à survivre tout au long du jeûne. Le record de jeûne de Barbieri est considéré comme l'un des plus longs jeûnes médicalement surveillés de l'histoire.

Eu não quero mais comer, nunca mais… Quero viver de água e sol igual uma planta. Toda vez que como me sinto nojenta, toda vez que olho minhas coxas, minha barriga e meus braços da vontade chorar e não desejo comer por uma eternidade, toda vez que eu comer vou aplicar uma punição cada vez pior. A intenção é viver num NF eterno. Tem um relato de um homem que queria emagrecer, não sei se vocês conhecem o nome dele é Angus, deixarei abaixo um link que conta um pouco sobre ele:

Peço desculpas por ser tão extrema, mas eu quero mesmo ser delicada e fininha… Nem que eu precise passar minha vida toda tentando.

Nas listed his then 7-year-old daughter, Destiny Jones, as an Executive Producer on his fifth studio album ‘Stillmatic’, so she will always receive royalty checks from the album.  Nas' album, Stillmatic, was released on December 18th, 2001.  It sold over 342,600 copies in its first week of release and peaked at No. 5 on the U.S. Billboard 200 chart. 

Sanju Bhagat's stomach was so swollen he looked nine months pregnant, and his breathing was so bad that he was rushed to hospital.  Doctors suspected his enlarged abdomen was a tumor until they opened him up and found that he'd been carrying around his absorbed twin for 36 years.  This condition is known as ‘fetus in fetu’.  One twin absorbs the other but will continue to leech nutrients from the host.

Okay, that’s enough information for one day.  Have a tremendous and tumultuous Tuesday!  I love you all.

I'm fairly ignorant on this but how can one function at 800cal a day?? Even at 80kg a 40-year-old's BMR would be around 1500cal or smth, won't starving yourself actively harm you, given your chronic conditions? Don't mind me if it's actually ok and I'm being too uneducated here, just please take care.

that's just it, i've been tested (full DEXA scan and BMR test) and my BMR is around 800 (855 to be exact, i just checked), despite my size, which is why i put on weight eating anything more than 1200 a day even when active. my metabolism is a joke

as for harm - i seem to be doing well enough on 800/day for the last 4 months, no significant issues related to the not-eating, except that the weight is coming off agonizingly slowly. i know a lot of people scream about starvation/fasting being bad for you, but then i think about outliers like Angus Barbieri (who literally lived on only coffee and water for over a year & lost an enormous amount of weight), and i wonder if - given my unique metabolic mess - it might be the best option for me too

we'll see, i guess. this is my last chance, so i need to do everything i can do to make it work 💛 thank you for caring!

Respect to angus barbieri. May vitamin supplements across the globe cower upon hearing your name

-123kg vivendo apenas de chá, café, água com gás e vitaminas em uma nf de 382 dias. O escocês Angus Barbieri conseguiu ficar mais de um ano sem comer absolutamente nada. E você ai, com dificuldade de fazer uma nf de 24 horas, gorda.

قصة أنجوس باربيري-الرجل الذي قضى عامًا بدون طعام وخسر 125 كجم

قرر رجل يبلغ من العمر 27 عامًا في اسكتلندا،أنجوس باربيري Angus Barbieri،في عام 1965 أنه يريد إنقاص بعض الوزن. في ذلك الوقت ، كان وزنه 207 كجم. تحت إشراف الأطباء ، بدأ الصيام وعاش لأكثر من عام دون طعام ، محققًا رقمًا قياسيًا عالميًا جديدًا.   وبحسب تقرير الأطباء ، فقد قدم نفسه للعلاج ، وكانت الخطة الأولية صيامًا قصير الأمد فقط. ولكن بعد أن بدأ ، بدا أن المريض يتمتع بصحة جيدة و “كان حريصًا على…

May 6th 2022, introduction

Alriiiight lets see how this goes. This is a fasting diary to document how well it goes for me. I dont expect this blog to garner any followers, but heres an introduction anyways.

My name is Jack, i am overweight by about 35 lbs. It isn’t much but i have been overweight for far too long. I used to be sort of somewhat in a normal weight, but it was short lived (obviously) and i gained almost all of it back (thank god not all of it). I am 5′5, and I weigh 180 lbs as of typing this post. My current GW is 135 lbs- so about 10 more pounds than what i am overweight by. I think. idk, im not gonna do the math again. My previous method i used was intermittent fasting and drinking exclusively meal shakes- it worked and I got down to 150. This time around, I plan to fuck around and find out with a fasting regime. My main concern is the retention of my strength, what little it is, and of course, the ability to Not Die. I will Not Die by drinking a calorie free electrolyte solution (2l of water, iodized salt, potassium, magnesium).

I have already done a 2 day fast, and it was HELL. I refed yesterday due to an immense weakness- I had lost roughly 7 lbs in those two days but im sure most of it was water weight, maybe a pound of body fat. I hear that after a while, the weakness feeling will go away. Angus Barbieri was able to not eat for well over 300 days, so surely I can go a day or two without it.

I am restarting with another 2 day fast minimum, hopefully it will be easier this time around.  I am already halfway through the first day and it seems easier because this seltzer water is making me feel ‘full’.

Things to note:

I have quite a bit of body fat, so I have the fuel to do this. If you find yourself on the smaller side I wouldn’t recommend this, especially if you are prone to eating disorders.

I am doing this because there is a time constraint. I wouldn’t have turned to fasting otherwise, and actually quite enjoy eating (as evidenced by my obesity)

If you do fast, make sure you replenish your electrolytes. Electrolyte loss is deadly.

This is a journal mostly to document my weight, my lifts, and my runtime maybe.

If you plan to fast for longer than 3 days, make sure you have a refeeding plan. Break your fast with bone broth or something. Start light, and avoid carby foods. Carbs draw water into your intestine and can cause you to shit out your electrolytes a dangerous amount.

do your research before doing this. all i gotta say really

[zerocaloriesfasting]

The man who did not eat for 382 days Angus Barbieri holds record for the longest fast. Not only he loat weight, but he improved his health markers.

Angus Barbieri's fast

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angus_Barbieri%27s_fast Comments

[transmedicalism-saves-lives]

So you are just willfully ignorant, then. That’s sad. If you ever decide to open yourself up to basic science facts: malnutrition is about nutrients (vitamins, minerals, proteins..), not about Calories, and fat is not a storage facility of everything the human body needs to function. The body’s consumption of its own fat doesn’t provide the necessary level of nutrients, nor even every nutrient needed. Not eating for a few hours is not comparable to someone starving themself.

Look up “Angus Barbieri.”

How committed are you for a great 2021?

How committed are you for a great 2021?

You ready to commit to a brand new year? 2021!Commitment is hard in life and in business…even when doing good for yourself. You committed as Angus Barbieri of Scotland? In 1965, he weighted 456 pounds…to change that, his personal commitment was to TOTALLY stop eating…no food for 382 days. NO EATING FOR A YEAR?! He ended at a weight of 180. His first meal was breakfast which reminds me of that…
