Transformation - How I Lost Weight With… Intermittent Fasting
Men's Health South Africa
|August 2019
after A Year Of Trying This New Diet Trend, Nick Pereira Has Adjusted His Daily Routine – And Lost 11kg In The Process. He Tells Thaaqib Daniels All About His Journey With Intermittent Fasting.
Intermittent fasting (IF) is a diet that involves limiting your kilojoule intake to a set time frame during the day, and fasting the rest of the time. It’s become a major trend in recent years.
But you’re probably still asking yourself: does it actually work? And would you be able to stick to a life without breakfast?
Sports physio Nick Pereira shares his experience of how he lost weight with intermittent fasting back in 2018 – and how he’s still doing it.
Eating Less – But Better
“My journey to better health started in 2016. My process involved becoming a regular exerciser, cleaning up my diet, looking after my mental health, and committing to a journey of self-mastery.”
“My last weigh-in – back in November 2017 – tracked my weight at 84kg, with 14% body fat. After roughly eight months of fasting and regular exercise, without my focus being on weight or body fat, I noticed I was really starting to lean out.”

If I Want To Hit PBs in the Gym, Do I Need To Give Up Alcohol Entirely?
I've seen a lot of people kick booze for good when they start looking at how it affects their gym performance and asking questions like, 'Did having that bottle of wine with dinner last night affect my bench press PB?' Maybe it's the clear, tangible feedback you get, as soon as you start paying attention, or maybe it's that people feel their gym lives and social lives become incompatible.

Increasingly, worryingly, men are outsourcing their mental health needs to non-sentient Al chatbots. Is this the future of therapy or a step closer to a dystopian future?
