What is your current eating window? (self.fasting)

Currently on a 20 hour fasting / 4 hour eating window. Usually it gets hardest at around hour 14 or 15. Drinking loads of herbal tea and water helps me a lot.

Curious to see what other people are currently doing!

Noon to 8 here. I'm just getting started so I'm easing in. Any thoughts on drinking coffee?

[–] zecg 1 points 9 months ago

I drink coffee; french press mainly, but no sugars and no milk (am vegan anyway).

For me personally, black coffee is ok. I make sure not to add cream or sugar

I'm fasting 16:8.

[–] Ashatmapants 2 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Yeah I actually adjusted my fast to this as well, 20:4 got too hard because of random unforeseen circumstances during the day. 16:8 seems to be the best manageable.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Officially, I chose the 16:8 schedule, but I do try and go as long as I can. I usually try to get an extra 30min -1hr . Just depends what I have on at work. I find weekends more of a struggle and have to keep busy or I start wanting food.

I do ADF, eat one day, fast the next. And none of that "midnight start" bullshit, I fast from supper one day to breakfast the day after the next day.
