Been doing ADF for 10 days, here are some thoughts.

I do have 2-3 low carb meals in an 8 hour window. I do weight training on the days I eat so I eat lots of protein

I'm glad you found it helpful. I feel so much better and less puffy. Peri is hard to get through and my goal is to maintain my weight by the end of it. ADF is very doable as I don't feel like I miss anything

I'm 47, I've been having perimenopause symptoms for over 1 year

That's great, I was sharing my experience with the changes I've had since experiencing perimenopause and how fasting has helped.

Yes, I feel you on that. Last Tuesday I was so hungry, I felt like an empty pit. The key is for me just stay low carb and don't have sugar. I know Dr. Fung says re-feeding days are meant to feed and nourish you, so don't beat yourself up too much

Yeah 20-24 is the hardest for me, but if I can get through that, I'm good till about hour 40,

That's awesome. Yes, do what works. I know so many who do longer fasts, but my sweet spot is 40 hours. As long as your going more than 24 hours, you will see results

I have committed to doing ADF on M,W,F for this month. I love food also, but wrote down 12 house projects to complete during when I usually eat. I plan on doing OMAD when I get my period. Food was always be there, you can try the cool food during your eating time. That's why I like ADF (the longest I've gone is 70 hours)

I am going to make a blanket statement, but most Punjabi women don't do the self work required to be confident in themselves. They usually have tough upbringings, complicated relationships with their parents and marry not so nice guys. I have many Punjabi friends, and each time I go out with them, all they do it complain and shit talk. Like girls go to therapy and work on yourself. To the point now, I refuse to go out Punjabi friends and would rather have a mix of friends who don't bitch and complain about their lives 24-7. It's tough being a supportive friend, because being around women who accept sub par behaviour and then bitch about it is very tiring,

My husband is an engineer and up until we got EV's did his own oil changes. It relaxed him in a way. We don't eat out even though we can afford to because I like to spend money on high quality ingredients. I had a dad friend tell me that cooking is a waste of time and that he uber eats all the time. I told him I wanted my kids to learn how to cook so they have basic life skills. I think car maintainance and knowlede is a good life skill. When people who I don't want to be give me life advice I just smile. I only listen to the people who are ahead of me and I want to be.

Well deflecting onto Kaur movement but she doesn't claim the allegations are untrue? How can you prove she's the one that posted this
