I’ve been listening to a lot of podcasts lately about food (fasting, different types of carbs, fat etc) and find it fascinating.
I’ve started not eating my breakfast within half hour of when I get up and leaving it until a bit later (about 15/16 hour fast). I always thought it was unhealthy to miss breakfast but obviously learnt now that it’s not.
I’ve also been avoiding carbs for breakfast and lunch (I usually eat bread every lunch!) so having Greek yoghurt for breakfast and this week grilled chicken thighs and stir fry veg, smoked salmon salad, Caesar salad for lunch so far. Then a normal dinner. Really enjoying it and already started losing a little weight. Anyone else found any benefits of fasting/low carbs?

Ive been listening to podcasts about this too and have taken up iff. Honestly been a game changer, everything now makes sense to me now. The DOAC, Jason fung episode had been (no exaggeration) life changing. Weights dropping off and im not hungry, which having done a million diets in the past is almost unbelievable. I did ozempic ( before the shortage put a stop to it,) and this is better than that, same lack of hunger, same lack of food based thoughts, but free! Madness.
