Intermittent Fasting Daily Menu/Results/Accountability

[ummyasmin 1,603]

Ok, no IF this weekend, and today is 19th anniversary! Woot!
...
How are y'all doing? Anyone IFing the crap outta Monday?

Congratulations!!

I did, accidently. Didn't eat until about 4.30pm coz I was so busy. It gave me lots of lovely calories to play with for dinner but I kept it light. It meant I had to purposely eat some cheese to just up my Protein this evening (a first for me).

Is 4:30 late enough to be a make-up day for Ramadan?

At the moment yes (gotta love winter in the northern hemisphere) but I'd already drunk Water past dawn so it wouldn't count. I think doing me ramadan catchups has accidentally put my body into natural IF mode even when I'm not purposely doing it. Which is way cool!

That's pretty much what a lot of the IF videos said, how fasting has been part of religious traditions forever. Just one of the perks of being religious.

Definitely! Probably a lot of health wisdom there that we ate only just waking up to.

I actually made it to dinner without eating. So 5:30 was about 21 hours. But, had LOTs of cals for dinner. Am up 0.6lbs and I ate 1/9th of a piece (think 1 bite or 2 small bites of tirimisu--so not worth it--tasted like crap).

Back on IF today but ate late 10pm with Protein Shake cuz needed to get Protein in. So it's gonna be a 16:8 kinda day.

Spiritual purification and apparently other purifying properties too. I just feel sooo stupid. I fasted all the time, saw the research on mortality & longevity a decade ago and never put the pieces together

Wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Some of us just spent that long lurking!

Because... You know why

Today did IF for a lot longer than intended then didn't eat much (500 cals) so I caught up in the end (added 400 more) turns out waiting longer between eating and drinking is doing something good. But I added the extra cals because I did not want to wake up at night...
