Full realistic day of eating on IF 16:8

hey guys! this is a realistic of what I eat in a day while intermittent fasting.. We started off strong for lunch, but i did have work today from 1pm-7pm. Not leaving me much time to prepare a meal before my eating window ended for 8. ( reason I need to start meal prepping🤦🏽‍♀️) BUT it’s ok, we’ll get there.. So my last meal was definitely rushed, however, i didn’t let that get me off track. i am a Louisiana girly and we love our seafood so i did have 1 boiled crab with my meal🫣 ( very good of me, bc i would normally eat like 5 at one sitting🤣)

** i refill my water cup atleast 6-7 times a day, and drink green tea during my fasting window to kind of suppress any cravings i may have during that time, + it taste great!**

my calorie goal is 1400 so i did do pretty bad today, but that’s why i love tomorrow!🥰🫶🏽 what im learning this time around on my weight loss journey is to not let 1 bad day ruin your progress or discourage you to quit! One day at a time! see y’all tomorrow! (:

... Read moreIntermittent fasting (IF) has become increasingly popular for weight loss and overall wellness. The 16:8 method, which involves fasting for 16 hours and eating within an 8-hour window, is not only effective but also flexible. It's essential to plan your meals wisely to accommodate work and lifestyle, while still hitting your calorie goals. Make meal prepping a part of your routine to ensure you can enjoy nutritious meals even on busy days. Don't let one off day derail your progress; rather, embrace the journey of learning about your body's needs and responses. Stay hydrated, as drinking plenty of water plays a crucial role in weight loss and helps curb hunger pangs during fasting. Incorporating green tea is a great strategy as it can help suppress cravings and add flavor to your hydration routine. Remember, every attempt is a step closer to habit formation, creating a sustainable lifestyle change that can help you achieve your weight loss and health objectives. Explore community tips and share your experiences with those on similar journeys. Focus on the journey, not just the destination.

this is 141 grams of protein!!! now even though this is all possible to eat in a day, it’s not easy. and you have to meal prep ahead of time for it to be realistic. if you’re a gym girlie then you know you need to be eating around 1.2g of protein per lb of bodyweight to actually see gains. most
