[quote=Anonymous]NP - chiming in to say I do this as a lifestyle change, not as a diet, and my goal is to maintain my current weight. I have friends who want to lose weight, and they count calories, but I have been okay with just restricting my eating window so I don't snack at night. Having a hard time cutoff is easier for me than trying to figure out how many calories are in a muffin and whether or not my dinner was 1 or 1.5 servings. I just want to keep it simple. My window is 12-8, so my family isn't affected at all. Sometimes my kids notice I don't have breakfast, and I just say I'm not hungry yet. I make sure to point out that kids need to eat more because they are still growing. If we have brunch with friends or family, I may eat a little earlier, but then I just stop earlier in the day to compensate. Sometimes my stomach rumbles around 10 am, but it stops after 10 minutes. You learn to ignore it.[/quote]
