[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I used to but I don’t anymore - there is more conflicting evidence now. Instead, I’m working with a nutritionist and eating to improve my health. I was able to get my blood sugar and cholesterol in normal range by eating breakfast (I didn’t used to). Like you said, breakfast gives me energy to work out in the morning and that was one incentive. I also follow the “glucose goddess” tips (I was prediabetic previously). I have a high protein, savory breakfast and a sugar free protein shake (monk fruit sweetened) and dump some coffee in it. I do a Mediterranean diet type snack for the afternoon- a mix of some raw veggies and fruits, nuts, seeds, sometimes a small piece of salmon. Then I have a normal dinner - always with veggies and usually to start the meal. I would say I usually fast 12-15 hours a day but I’m not intentionally doing it- it just depends what time I finish dinner and what time I start breakfast.

Personally, I do better with this type of plan and it’s the only time I’ve been able to bring down my A1C and cholesterol. Intermittent fasting on its own didn’t help with that for me on its own - so it’s more about *what* you’re eating than the windows of time you’re eating in when it comes to health. I am a normal BMI.[/quote]

I am confused because you start out saying you don’t eat breakfast any more but your plan seems to include breakfast and you say breakfast helped fix things.  [/quote]
