[quote=Anonymous]I just started a 16/8 IF schedule a few days ago. I've already lost a pound, which is great, although probably has to do with ditching my post kid's bedtime glass of wine than anything else! I had a baby 10 weeks ago and had gained about 5 pounds after losing all the weight in three weeks.

I currently weigh about 204. I am looking for a manageable change I can make that will essentially be semi permanent. I would like it if I could eventually be in the 180s or even, a pipe dream, the 170s but I am happy with my body and my life so this is more about health than self worth or confidence. I also really don't care if I lose the weight over the course of six months or six years. If possible, please just bypass this thread if you want to tell me how obese and unhealthy I am!

Anyway, I seem to be doing pretty well. The only part that is at all hard is wanting coffee before 11am (when I break the fast) but I can't drink it black.

My main question is if it has to be 7 days a week. I feel like overall this is totally manageable. But I am missing the occasional glass of wine with the bachelor or whatever and want to go on dates with my husband and am wondering if doing this 5 days a week is enough to see results. And like I said, I'm not in any rush, just want to ensure that I'm a few pounds lighter post baby than heavier.

I am active, I jog and go to yoga classes if that makes a difference.
