Fasting Woes..

Breakfast.. Who needs it?

Dinner.. Of course.

You can only vote on one answer.

I'm starting tonight with the 14:10 plan in order to get used to fasting as a routine. I was considering 16:8 because sometimes I don't eat breakfast or dinner, it flops between the two. But with my medications, I [i]theoretically[/i] need to eat something in the morning..
I'll probably give my current plan sometime and change to 16:8 when I'm feeling comfortable enough with the routine!

•Would you rather skip breakfast or dinner with the 16:8 intermittent fasting routine? ♡

I skip breakfast and lunch. Work days i dont eat till i get home after 6 . Have a two hour eating window those days.
But on my days off - i usually eat around 2 or three- ish in the arvo, which gives me about 5 hour window or so .

On weekends i swtich it around, or just have liquid days....plus its good to have a normal day now and them .

As to which one you choose - its up to what suits you .
Ive never really been a breakfast person .

@OogieBoogie same, the times I do eat breakfast it's very minimal. Like a cup of cheerios and water because I'm lactose intolerant.

@Mudkip same.
Weekends i indulge in bacon and eggs sometimes....but i just don't seem to need or want breakfast. Never have.
Food slows me down.
When im fasting i have more energy 🤷

@OogieBoogie I'm literally the same. I don't seem to need or want breakfast. It makes me feel sluggish, even in the mornings when I sometimes run and workout. I'm better off without it.

@Mudkip yep. Thats me too.
Its why i believe everyone should find what works best for them.
Ive never understood "breakfast is the most important meal of the day"....its not, well not for me ut isn't.
Not unless i wanna be asleep thru lunch 😂
