I'm giving intermittent fasting a whirl. So far im loving it but I wonder what most people do. I'm being strict all week with both my schedule and my actual diet but just the way it has panned out I've had two busy weekends that I've loosened the belt a little. I've nothing planned this weekend however so im going to try an extended fast for the lols but it got me wondering how other people's schedules look?

I go 15-18 hrs between meals. It's just become habit now. More usually it's 17-18 but I'm not dogmatic with it.

I've been doing 16 hours for the last few months and have been amazed that I can stick to it. I thought I'd really struggle but am used to it now. No idea how much I've lost as my scales aren't working but my clothes aren't as tight.

I do 16:8 also and it stops me from gaining weight when I'm eating shite. When I'm eating better, I'll lose a bit. So from that perspective it's worth it to me. I basically skip breakfast. Some days I won't, but usually I do, and I won't feel hungry til 11am or later. I've been doing it for nearly 10 years now.
