[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Intermittent fasting was the only thing that helped me lose weight and I have kept it off for over a year. Start with not eating for at least 2-3 hours before you go to bed and then skip breakfast, then eat a late lunch at 1:00. The link below has some good tips for getting started. I was skeptical in and didn't think that like other diets it would be very sustainable, but my body has adjusted great and I really just don't feel like food in the morning anymore. It is also a great way to improve your blood work. My mother started intermittent fasting and has lost 15-20 and was able to stop taking her cholesterol medication.   http://www.nowloss.com/intermittent-fasting-diet-plan.htm  [/quote]is

This has helped me, too. I read the book The Fast Diet and tried it out. I like doing the 5:2 program (eat regularly for 5 days a week, fast for 2 days). The fast isn't really a *fast* -- you just eat about 1/3 of your normal calories, either spread out during the day or all in one meal. Yes, you do feel a bit hungry, but it's tolerable, especially when you know you can eat normally the next day. Good luck![/quote]

I've been doing Intermittent fasting for about a month now.  I only eat between the hours of  11am and 8 pm, so I have a 15 hour period of no eating  but that includes sleeping time.  I've lost 8 pounds so far and kept all my other exercise routines the same as before.  I think late night snacking was a huge culprit for me, so once I cut that out the pounds finally started dropping.  It took a couple of weeks for the cravings to go away but after that it was easy.[/quote]
