Three or more days is too extreme. I have very positive experience with 14/10 method where I skip eating between 10pm and 12-noon.


I was thinking that 14/10 sounded too generous to get the benefits of fasting usually talked about - turns out there's a difference between men and women where because of hormones women are recommended longer eating windows (starting at 14/10) than men (16/8).


Yeah, intermittent fasting is extremely popular right now, and really 14/10 is just skipping breakfast, but I see people saying they are on longer fasts, so I'm wondering if they can keep up their other healthy activities while doing so.


I’m thinking of doing 8am to 5pm eating window. I need food to look forward to to motivate me out of bed.


Plus, you can hit up the early bird special at Denny's.


Do you mean 10pm to 12pm?
