Is dry fasting really better for fat loss?

Question

Hi,

I have about 10 kgs that I want to lose. I did a lot of fasting a couple years ago (for autophagy) and was really slim and trying to gain weight at that time actually.

Now, I am thinking of fasting for the weight loss.

I hear people say that dry is better for that but is it really, I mean for people who are just 10 to 15 kgs above their desired weight? I know people who weigh more lose weight easier, so maybe it's that just fasting in general led to weight loss and that became an anecdote?

Thank you!
