    Feast or Famine: Evidence Mounts for Fasting Diets

    -Eat all your favorite foods and still lose weight? Seems almost too good to be true, but for Jennifer Stewart it's been the answer to a life-long battle with being overweight.

    "I lose weight very slowly and don't lose weight like normal people," says Stewart. "I had tried all kinds of diets. I went to a nutritionist in my late teens. I would lose like a half a pound a week and it didn't quite make sense."

    But then, about two years ago, Stewart, 54, discovered intermittent fasting, a method of dieting that has gained popularity over the last decade.

    For Stewart, here's how she started: Every other day she would eat no more than 500 calories and on the days in between, called her "feast" days, she consumed about 2,200 calories.

    And unlike other weight loss plans that usually restrict refined carbs, fat, or sugar, Stewart eats whatever she wants on her feast days...

    There's still a difference in weight loss and eating healthy though. Sugar, etc, is still bad for you.
