My $0.02 on fasting and programming ... I've been intermittently fasting over the last month or so by not eating from dinner until lunch the next day, every day. I read about a number of health benefits and figured it would be a good way to lose weight for my personality type. I'm only suffering half the time that the author is (I sleep through the other half) and I drink unlimited water and tea during that time but I find it really helps me focus during that time. I have two big hunger peaks: about an hour after waking up and about 2 hours before lunch. During those times, I find it important to be really plugged into something (usually programming, sometimes writing). I wonder if eating a lot in the morning kind of primes the body for more food throughout the day, making it worse? I've found I eat a lot less total calories during the day, as though the lost meal makes me use to less food overall. I ea a big lunch but a regular-sized dinner, then the "fast" starts. 100% conjecture.
