    Hi guys its been 3 days since I havent pmo. Because we are muslim, this month we fast. Besides fasting really makes quiting pmo very easy to me. I havent seen any flatline in the last three days. There is also one point to mention is that I had also been trying to stop pmo before fasting...

    so you mean fasting helps... cant it be, that it gets even harder, because you feel maybe weak? I don't know.

    But great, that it helps you!

    Well man it has really helped very much. The sexual urges die while you're fasting..

  4. I believe that, because i always want to masturbate more when i feel full.

    By the way, did you know your counter says 180 days?

    I don’t think fasting can help you with pmo.
    I think feeling hungry can infact trigger cravings.
    But if that is helping you, good for you.

    I can't really tell if fasting helps but for me eating healthy does! I've tried eating more healthy (less meat, more fruits and vegetables, no processed food) and while I'm on my "diet" I feel little to no need to masturbate despite eating way less than I normally do. For me it's the good feeling that helps me. If I do something good for my body I feel more powerfull and less depressed which results in nearly no need in masturbating.

  8. Going Keto diet helps, and that is basically only 2 meals a day and below 20g carbos. Because you are not triggering your blood sugar. Not only that but you can lose a lot of weight in short amount of time if your overweight. There are some vitamins supplements you should probably take if your doing this for many months.

    Well we must be fasting only for 30 days because of religion that is why. Because of this Im having good chance not to pmo too. We neither eat nor drink from the early morning untile sundown..

    I can explain you why it helps
    I myself has done Hindu vrats(fast) which somehow help
    When we fast we are controlling our temptation of eating.....
    Means we can eat....we have all delicious things around us but still we abstain from it ....for spiritual reasons
    This kind of training helps us to control our other temptations like sex or pmo

  11. I've been intermittently fasting. I've found it a little easier not to PMO recently. Wasn't a conscious thought, but now this thread has made me think about it - yeah, I think there might be method to fasting.

    Also, I'd add I read online that you can stay below 50g carbs and still stay in ketosis? I've watched a lot of documentaries on this diet (JOE ROGAN!!!) and the downfalls of other diets and I'd suggest that the industrialisation period over the last couple of centuries that introduced new kinds of carbohydrates into our diet are the cause of major diseases. These major diseases weren't so prevalent before industrialisation. We're the only species who have a body that can't naturally deal with high amounts of fat. It seems only too obvious to me that we should try and limit our carbohydrate intake.

    Cereal is the devil.
     
  12. It depends on your intention of fasting. If your intention is just no eating and drinking, it's useless.

    Guys relapsed again on day 10 of no pmo while fasting. But it was fasting that help me make it 10 days
     
  14. That's exactly it for me, I know at least personally when I get hungry and I don't eat (like say a snack of grapes or I miss a meal by accident) it brings all sorts of cravings like mad, so fasting would do the complete opposite if I tried.

    Yes that is what I was trying to say.
    Fasting is not that helpful against Pmo.
    Hungry, angry lonely, tired rule.
    HALT

    But fasting is great in enhancing yourself spiritually.

    Conscious fasting
