I do this every day. 16 hrs fast. Eat around 1 or 2pm firzst meals.
Works for me.
I skip breakfast every day and try to push lunch back as much as possible.
I’ve dropped a lot of weight doing that.
If you really want to lose weight drop to one meal a day.
My doc wants me to skip supper instead of breakfast. Says your body treats carbs differently in the morning than in the evening. But I don’t want to mess with what is working. And, I think either I’d end up eating at night, or stay awake hungry. Morning works for me.
I do that every day; Break Fast...breakfast.
Easier said than done. Hat tip to those who do this on a routine basis.
Interesting article. Thanks for posting.
I do OMAD at least 5 times a week, combined with a Keto Diet, really makes it easy to do. I generally eat between 3 and 4 PM my meal, so it’s pretty much all digested by the time I go to bed. And I never wake up hungry the next day, so for me, it’s a snap to make it to 3 PM.
Every day
I do it
Best thing I ever did. I’m pretty much 18-6 almost every day.
I do a 5-7 day water fast once or twice a year too.
My A1C was 6.6, and the doctor said he would put me on medicine if it didn’t come down. We started IF for less snacking, better health and weight loss. My A1C came down: 6.6; 6.2; 5.9; 5.5; and most recently 5.2. I have lost 40 pounds, and stopped 5 medications. We believe it is a good pattern for eating.

I’ve been doing the 16/8 for the last 6 weeks. Dropped a few pounds and feel much better. Really improved my appetite too.
Isn’t 16/8 high frequency intermittent fasting. The article is about low frequency intermittent fasting. I don’t know if that means a 5:2 diet or something like a 3 day fast every 2 weeks kind of thing. But low frequency would imply not daily or maybe not even weekly.
The article specifies a once-per-week water-only fasting.
Gee, seems like I dimly recall something about Fridays and fast days and some religion thingy.
