How many days a week do you practice intermittent fasting?
Thanks for sharing so many details; it sounds like something that could work for me, with a little bit of tweaking :)
For a longer while now I've been doing intermittent fasting 5-7 days a week. I started in 2019 when it was discussed on the forum, but I didn't stick to it so regularly and frequently. These days I try to get solid 16 hours of fasting most days of the week.
In my case intermittent fasting is fairly easy because despite being an early bird I'm not really hungry until 9-11am, and I rarely feel hungry after 4-5pm. I was really hungry in the evenings when I first started and I couldn't handle more than a few days of IF per week but after a while my body just got used to not getting food after 3-5pm.
Intermittent fasting was mentioned in the sessions too, here are a few excerpts in case this helps:
Q: (Andromeda,) What about this intermittent fasting? Will that help at all?
A: Indeed.
Q: (L) So, intermittent fasting, keeping close watch on the sleep cycles, probably getting the injections, being really good on the diet, iodine, fish oil, B vitamins, chromium piccolinate, and vitamin D... Several things that are very specific to this particular condition that we need to take care of.
Q: (L) Oh, and there was one thing I had at the bottom of the list. I guess it goes with diet. I thought it was a good idea to fast one day a week.
A: Intermittent fasting will do.
You may have seen it already, but in case you haven't you may be interested in this session where IF was discussed, and additional resources about it were shared:
