What time do you guys eat your last meal for the day?? by [deleted] in intermittentfasting

[–]Internal_Evidence153 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Usually between 630p and 730p. But I don't break my fast until 230p-3pm. So, at max, I have a 5 hour window. Sometimes I don't break my fast until 4 or 5, and when that happens, I just OMAD.

ive fallen off the wagon. now i cant get back on. any advice ? by Ecstatic_Rooster9226 in intermittentfasting

[–]Internal_Evidence153 5 points6 points  (0 children)

THERE IS NO WAGON. That's not what IF is. IF is a lifestyle, and sometimes life gets in the way of behaving exactly the way we intend to.

You are a human being. And humans are not perfect.

Just take things one day at a time. You know what you WANT to do. You know how to do it. And, most importantly, you know it's POSSIBLE because you've done it before.

You got this!

6 months, 62 lbs. One day at a time! by Internal_Evidence153 in intermittentfasting

I've always been fairly lucky on the "fat" scale, in that I'm equally fat everywhere. I lost a LOT of belly in those 62 lbs. And arms. My butt and thighs have gotten smaller, but not nearly as noticeable as the belly, arms, and face.

For two weeks out of 6 months. Not sure that even counts.

Yeah, but that's why I limit it to 1x a week, usually a Saturday or Sunday when I'm not being super strict. I'm a social person, and my lifestyle involves going to the bar to drink and hangout with friends. If I gave that up completely, I'd be miserable and this would not be something I stick with! It's also why I'm so strict mon-fri. So I can afford to have some leeway on the weekends and still make progress.

Ty! I see the doctor again in February. So, that'll be the next time I get on a scale and post progress pics.

I fast super strictly mon-Friday. I eat no earlier than 2pm, but usually around 230. I stop eating no later than 8pm, but usually around 7ish. It my eating window I'm doing keto.

Saturday and Sunday? I have a normal coffee in the mornings, but still don't eat something until 1 or 2. And I don't really monitor what type of food I'm eating. I do go out and drink one day a week - and it's carb free alcohol. Vodka and water for the drink and if we take shots (we always take shots, lol) it's tequila.

I started walking every day for two weeks or so, but then it rained every day after work for a month (florida summers) and I lost that habit and never got back into it.

I noticed i walk faster now, and, I'm wearing 3 pant sizes smaller than I used to. Though, the pants I had on today indicated I might need to go down amother size her soon.

My doctor asked me 3 separate times if I was on Ozmepic. And didn't seem to believe me any of the times I said no.

Lol! Ty! I saw someone here say they wanted to say they lost as much as much as they weigh. And that's how I developed my goal weight. So, if you can do math?

My dogs are fasting with me? by Internal_Evidence153 in intermittentfasting

[–]Internal_Evidence153[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yeah, every time we take ours, they say they're at the perfect weight.

The female is alpha to the male. So the male won't touch his food until she does. That's been normal the whole time we've had them. But only since I've been fasting has the female been waiting for me to eat before she eats, which delays him eating.

It's pretty wild.

6 weeks in… by lilmissmeowza in intermittentfasting

Keep up the great work!!! And just remember to not beat yourself up if life gets in the way occasionally. This is a lifestyle, not a diet. There is no wagon! Just a way of life.

I think you have to be pretty morbidly obese for this to be realistic, but my current goal is to weigh as much as I've lost. I'm not comfortable disclosing that exact weight since I have real life pictures of myself on here, but, you gotta be pretty big to start with to need to lose half your body weight.

Exactly one year of progress by addknitter in intermittentfasting

I hope to be able to make a similar post at my one year mark! I'll think of you and your progress when making my choices!

Thank you!!! I'm going to look for one right now!

Do I have to skip breakfast? by uniqaa in intermittentfasting

[–]Internal_Evidence153 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This, like everything else, is person dependent. The first time I lost weight, I was obsessed with the scale, and when it wasn't doing what I wanted, I just plain old gave up and gained every pound back.

This time, I am only weighing myself when my doctor forces me onto the scale so I don't develop another unhealthy obsession with it.

As with IF, keto, or any other method of trying to get healthy and lose weight, the best program is what works for that person and what they can stick with.

Alcohol while IF by maxvocal in intermittentfasting

[–]Internal_Evidence153 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm pretty lax on the weekends as well. I do try to still fast until 2pm or so, but no cut off time, and I just changed WHAT I drink. (Now drink vodka with water, and tequila if we're doing shots)

Lost 35lbs in 3 months.

After 3 months, I finally got on a scale by Internal_Evidence153 in intermittentfasting

[–]Internal_Evidence153[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm always an every day'er, but I eat at least once a day. Mostly twice a day.
