WEEK 8
ok, so I decided to try out Intermittent Fasting (IF) this week, to see what it was all about, and was really quiet surprised
It is basically skipping out breakfast COMPLETELY and only eating for 8 hours, so fasting for 16 hours (16/8). I normally have had my evening meal by 8pm, so I have not been eating again until midday the next day. Thought it was gonna be super hard, but really, it has been surprisingly easy. Did get the hunger pangs at 10am ish for the first 3 days, but black coffee, water, keeping busy, and e-cigs kind a sweep them bad boys away
My RDI is 1800, and I've been eating to a target of 1400 giving me a daily calorie deficit of -400. Doing IF has made it superhard now to even hit my 1400 target, (FS Reports below) this is because the eating window is small, and it really forces you to make eating choices. I do though have a lot more energy in the mornings, in the gym, & throughout the day, however pretty much zombiefied after dinner!
Thought I'd share that with you guys, not sure currently if this is a good or bad thing to do, cause of all the different opinions of you tube, however next weeks weigh in & pic should show if it worked...
Good luck with all your personal journeys, & thank you for your support... Raj
