Fat Fasting: A Fasting “Stepping Stone”

By Coach ❤️Theah

Fat fasting is one of my favorite tools to help you ease into fasting, curb cravings, and reset your appetite—especially if you've been off track or are feeling stuck. Think of it as a "training wheel" to get your body back into fat-burning mode with fewer side effects.

What Is Fat Fasting?

If the term sounds a little confusing—you're not alone. Aren’t we supposed to avoid fat?

Turns out, natural fats can be incredibly healing and helpful, especially when transitioning into a lower-carb or fasting lifestyle. A fat fast involves eating very fatty foods in small portions—so that roughly 80–90% of your calories come from fat—for a short period of time, usually 2–3 days.

This is a strategy I often recommend:

• After a carb-heavy weekend or vacation

• When cravings are raging

• When you're coming off a stressful season and need to reset

• If fasting just feels too hard right now

Why Fat Fasting Works

Fat is the most satiating macronutrient—especially for your brain. When you eat fat, your body doesn’t need your belly to be physically full in order to feel full. You’re satisfied faster and can stay full longer, without that bloated, overstuffed feeling.

Compare that to carbs or even protein—where your belly needs to expand before your brain gets the message that you're full. That’s why carb-heavy meals often leave you overfull, bloated, or craving more.

Fat fasting quiets the hunger hormones, fills up the belly and the brain, and lowers insulin so your body can finally relax into fat burning.

How to Do It

For 2–3 days, eat small portions of very fatty foods, such as:

• Eggs cooked in butter or ghee

• Fatty cuts of meat

• Coconut oil, olive oil, MCT oil

• Avocados

• Fat bombs

• Bone broth with added fat

By day 3, many people are already doing 24-hour fasts—even if they were eating 8–12 times a day just days before. By the end of the week, you're back in rhythm and feeling like yourself again.

The Bottom Line

Fat fasting is simple, powerful, and a gentle on-ramp to deeper fasting. Whether you're trying to kick cravings, come back from a vacation, or get a handle on your hunger—this can help you reset, refocus, and reclaim your energy.
