I (19f) have been intermittent fasting (16:8) for the past two weeks and have been losing weight extremely fast. I also changed my diet, cut out junk food and most sweets other than chocolate occasionally. I started at 153 and am now 144. Is this healthy? I am 5’7”. Should I be concerned at how quickly I am losing weight?
Some background: before starting this fast, I would eat pretty normal amounts of food everyday, but regularly indulged in fast food / junk food. I had little self control and gave into cravings 80% of the time. I have fast metabolism, so while I ate unhealthy, I didn’t end up gaining weight and have been at the same weight for years (153). It’s slightly concerning now that I have slightly changed my eating habits that I’ve lost nearly 10 pounds in 2 weeks and it feels like I’ve been doing nothing (minimal workout), I’m pretty stationary all day.
