Fasting would definately help you lose bodyfat. With the experiments that I am doing with 24hr fasting I have not lost any muscle size or strength at all. I only do the fast once or twice a week (usually once a week due to my busy life at the moment). Brad explains in his ebooks that eating 6-8 times a day could actually keep you fat, it does depend on the volume of food you are eating and the overall total calories that you consume, of course. In Brad’s other ebook “How Much Protein” he also explains that even large protein consumption can contribute to bodyfat.

Nutrient wise, you sound like you are doing the right thing there and the workouts are good too. Heavy weights preserve muscle tissue while you are dieting. The other thing that Brad shows in “Eat Stop Eat” is that a 24 hr fast can cover a two day period. So, for example, you could actually eat up till 12 noon, then start a fast until 12 noon the next day and then commence eating again.

I should post more about “How Much Protein?” That book is a real eye opener about the myths around protein. Oh, the other thing you need with your diet is Creatine Monohydrate (don’t worry about the new fancy ones, stick to mono). Hope this helps and good luck!!!
