Intermittent fasting plus coffee and wine

[frogcity]

So this thing where you eat within an 8 hour window- can I still do that but drink coffee in the morning and wine after the kids have gone to bed?
I only drink at weekends.

Thanks.

The coffee is fine. The wine less so.

is the wine outside the eating window?

as long as you are aware of how many calories the wine is...

It will also cause significant water retention. 1 glass of wine makes me retain about 3lbs of water that then takes several days to come back off.

Hmm maybe I should just do 5:2 again. When I've done weight watchers in the past I've just ignored wine points and still lost weight though

I have recently discovered IF and totally love it.
I can keep my hunger in check until lunchtime ish - & I can eat more later on when I tend to want to anyway.
So I don’t think the length of the window has to be strictly adhered to... variety/ flexibility each day is fine
But your wine must be included in your calories
