Have you seen the benefits of fasting? If so, what specifically have you seen? 750 is well within the 30-60% for a reduced calorie diet, which has many benefits without fasting.

@EdEarl I've primarily done intermittent fasting, eating for a set number of hours out of 24 then fasting the rest. I've been doing the 8-16 split, not starting to eat until noon, not hard as I'm an extreme night-owl so I'm only up for an hour or so before noon most of the time. I then stop by 8 PM and don't eat again until the next noon. I've been doing it for a few weeks now and it is going pretty well. All but a few days I have kept eating within the 8 hours.

I'm not sure about the benefits of it other than it helps keep me from eating more than I intend to. Staying up to 2-3 AM means there was LOTS of time after 8 PM to slip up and get a "little snack". That does bring to mind a benefit, not eating for several hours before bed time means I have less reflux. I have a hiatl hernia and overeating or eating late lines me up for a lot of belching, heartburn, etc. which can also trigger some arrhythmia.

At one time I did "fruit fasting" for a time. It was recommended on a self-hypnosis weight loss tape. It was done only 2 consecutive days a week, all fresh fruit was allowed, although I think a couple, like bananas were supposed to be limited. That worked well as a diet aid, the rest of the days were to be controlled calorie intake. Could also be a good tool for maintenance.

I do throw in a very limited day every now and then, often in response to some bad diet days, kind of like this time. Tuesday, travel, pizza eating, followed by Wednesday's munchies, including a good salt load, caused a 2.4 pound bump. Today was back down to where I had been before the trip. Once in a while I have to do a little "shock therapy", severe limits for a day works sometimes. Also helps put me back on track sometimes.
