I do it about 5 days a week.
I stop at eating at around 6pm and wait until around 12 to eat the next day, so my average is about 18 hours. Sometimes I go a full 24 hours.
The theory is that if there's no glycogen stored for energy, you'll go straight to the fat for fuel. If this is true, then eating before doing cardio makes no sense.
Anyway, I noticed a marked difference in my fat loss rate when I started about 9 months ago. One thing I like is how fasting changes your relationship with food when your eating window shrinks. You get acquainted with hunger, and start you realize you're not going to die if you go a long time without eating. I love that period of the morning after I wake up until my first meal --- I have great mental focus and energy, and do an intense workout usually before my meal. ...and that first bite is always extra delicious.
