[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What’s the difference between IF and skipping breakfast (with the added caveat that you don’t snack after dinner)? Is it just a gimmicky diet to make it sound science-based? [/quote] I think the “science based” part of IF has to do with the way your body processes glucose after a certain number of hours of not eating. I’ve formally done 16:8 fasting for almost 2 years. I was never a big breakfast eater and after 3 kids in 6 years had 20 pounds to lose. In order to successfully fast, I found that I needed to change what I ate, particularly for dinner, to be higher in protein and fat and lower in white carbs or my fast was difficult. 18 months later I hVe lost 20 pounds and kept it off and will probably eat this way forever.
