When I was younger (15), I did an intermittent fasting sort of thing. Some days, sometimes multiple days in a row, I wouldn't eat anything, and other days I would eat less than my previous normal amount of food. I did this over a period of a couple months, and after that I just restricted myself to a very strict diet. This whole time I was keeping up with a daily exercise of a few miles of biking. At the end of six months I had gone from 210 pounds to 138 pounds.
