🫶intermittent fasting update

I can definitely see it in my face. I’ve lost about 8 lbs just fasting. So I think for August I should set a new goal for August like adding in a walk. But most importantly I feel way better!!!

Fasting was difficult at first and I still can barely wait to start eating when my window starts but focusing on protein intake has helped me not get hungry.

Also adding water water water water and more water.

Today is a bit different I just passed out at the state fair so I’m going to eat a little outside of my window but I feel like this is a special case.

... Read moreIntermittent fasting (IF) has gained popularity as a practical weight loss and wellness approach, promoting metabolic health and improved energy levels. Studies suggest that it can enhance insulin sensitivity, aiding weight management. Important strategies include maintaining proper hydration and focusing on high-protein foods to remain satiated. Incorporation of walks or light exercise can further boost results. Remember to listen to your body; adjustments may be necessary depending on individual responses to fasting. Sharing experiences within communities can provide motivation and support during your fasting journey. Many individuals find their unique fasting windows to be more beneficial—for some, skipping breakfast works while others thrive with a later eating period. Adjusting your diet to include nutritious options like fruits, vegetables, and whole grains can make a substantial difference in achieving weight loss goals. Social interactions also play a role; sharing meals with friends or family can enhance your dietary experience without derailing your fasting progress.
