[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Will be attempting to do IF on a 16:8 schedule. If you have had success with this, would you pls share what you typically eat during those 8 hours? Did you find it difficult to sustain in the long run? Any tips for someone starting?[/quote]

I find this the easiest to accomplish.  Basically, it's just skipping breakfast.  I start eating at 12 and eat a normal lunch (I ate a ham sandwich yesterday), then I eat dinner around 6 and nothing else after it.  I'm not a snacker so that's easy for me to not eat outside of b/l/d.  I also try to stick under 1300 calories a day so skipping breakfast helps and I will generally eat anything as long as it meets the calorie max.   Sometimes I go over, not a big deal. [/quote]

This is what I do, too.  I've never been all that hungry first thing in the morning so it works for me.  I eat mainly protein, veggies and some fat at both lunch and dinner.  Ex: I might have a spinach and cheese omelet with a couple of strips of bacon for lunch.  Dinner might be chicken and brussels sprouts.  After dinner I'm done and won't eat again until lunch the next day.
