[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here: For those of you who do intermittent fasting, how do you time it? I don’t want to model disordered eating to my kids, so I do want to sit down to dinner with them (6:30-7ish). I also rely on coffee with cream in the am. How would you schedule around those two things? [/quote]

Many people who do IF still have coffee with cream and don't consider it breaking the fast. Based on when you eat dinner, you could start out with a window 11-7 or 12-8 and then gradually try to shorten it. [/quote]

New poster. I'm 5'7" so not "tall" like y'all are tall, but in 2021, I lost 40 pounds via a combination of slightly increased exercise and intermittent fasting. My window was 12-8 because it allowed me to eat lunch and dinner with my kids as well as a sneaky pre-bedtime treat with my husband. I did not consider coffee with cream to be breaking the fast. The main issue I personally had was that I could no longer take meds or vitamins of any kind in the morning because taking them on an empty stomach would make me nauseous. I actually made that mistake earlier this week and the nausea was so bad I actually threw up. I take meds before bed now.

I was 190 after Thanksgiving 2020. At the end of February, I was down to 170, and in July, I hit 150 (my goal) and stopped tracking my weight regularly. However, when I have checked in, what I have learned is that 150 is my ideal weight. Much below that and I start looking simultaneously gaunt and flabby. I'm 41.[/quote]
