I have some experience with it. I'll write you tomorrow my experiences and thoughts about it (will be a little longer). Just so much: I feel much better when I fast. I used to eat only once a day, then I didn't fast for some time. That was a big difference, I didn't feel so good. Now I've been fasting again for a few weeks. 18:6 with two meals. It feels fantastic. But with all the exercise I do, there are a few things to watch out for.

So tanel, now I have a few minutes (waiting for my food 😊)

I'm fasting, as I said a little longer.

I think interval fasting is one of the keys to a healthy and long life.

At first I did the whole thing a little too extreme. I ate only in the evening. That was not so easy. I was already running every day at that time. But basically it felt good not to have a full stomach all day. Then I started to train 5 times a week additionally in the gym. And there it was impossible to eat only in the evening. Then I stopped fasting completely. Very complicated time. Working out and running felt good, but I struggled with eating. I started to study exactly what nutrients the body needs. I learned a lot about food. Finally, I started fasting again a few weeks ago. However, this time 18:6 (so 18 hours fasting and 6 hours eating), sometimes I fast 16:8, for example when I am out with friends or family. Basically it is easy for me not to eat breakfast. I never liked. I never eat before 12, then two meals. I usually start with a green smoothie. Before that a drink of turmeric, ginger and lemon. Basically, I also no longer drink coffee ( I miss it already), but matcha. I also try to avoid processed foods. It should be real food.

It is easy for me to fast because it makes me feel good. Vital and also much more focused and able to concentrate. What are your experiences so far?

Thank you so much for this, some great tips you have there πŸ’œ

My experience so far has been really positive, feeling less bloated and fatigued, and also it has made me understand how much cravings i have late at night, which I’d usually give into.

I guess the toughest thing for me right now is portion sizing and also what to consume
