intermittent fasting

[Guest guest]

,

I was wondering whether you do your IF plan on all weekday fast days

or just Wed/Fri.

Thanks,

Wednesday and Fridays normally. But I'm switching over to the 16/8

leangainers approach on the 1st of the month, so I guess that means

that I will be doing some form of IF on all weekday fasts (that will

be nice actually because ideally I want to have just one meal a day on

the various weekday fasts - outside of Lent, my current approach is

pretty haphazard regarding the other fasting periods. This will

" normalize " things).

The main difference will be that I won't be eating any animal products

(unless otherwise allowed) on the IF days that coincide with the fast

days nor obviously will the meals be as large. Probably means I will

have to make up some calories over the weekend. That's okay, I'm good

at feasting :-)

However, on ordinary Wednesdays and Fridays I will stick with the EAT

STOP EAT 24 hour approach, so as to differentiate them from the other

days, and have a small meal afterwards.

So how does that work out on Wednesday and Fridays? Well if my normal

eating window is 1 - 9 pm on the 16/8 plan (that isn't set in concrete

yet - I may go 2-10, 3-11) then on Tuesdays and Thursdays I will have

my last meal at the normal dinner hour (around 6 or so), and then

won't eat again until dinner the next day. Still within the window,

but not at all my concern on those days.
