I'm a huge proponent of intermittent fasting. After being skeptical at first, I felt I had more energy and was being more mindful about the type of foods I ate. The mindfulness alone may have been the catalyst, but even so, I'll chalk that up as a win.
In case it helps anyone else, I signed up for the Intermittent Fasting guide at www.howtostartfasting.com for the accountability and guidance and thought that was definitely one of the reasons I was able to stick to it and see the benefits.
It's designed for folks who are shift workers and have a changing schedule, but obviously still works and is easier if you have a regular schedule.
- solarmist 5y agoSame here. I’ve done both traditional calorie restriction with exercise and now alternate day fasting ADF. And I was extremely skeptical to begin with especially from an athletic point of view. But now I’ll say ADF wins hands down for its simiplty and effectiveness. It’s 10% of the work/effort and 90% of the benefits.
