Ok, I am going to do a month long test with Intermittent Fasting +plus a few other things.

I would like to loose 15 pounds, and curious to see how what you eat impacts skin tone and energy level. This is what I am going to do:

1) For one month, eat only in 6 hour time window: 11-5pm. Before and after: only water

2) Give up meat. Get protein from eggs and nuts. I have been wanting to go vegtarian for awhile

3) Give up processed foods. Eat only whole foods - fruits, nuts, eggs, vegetables plus high quality cheese and bread.

We will see... on day one, doing great! I have never really craved sweets at all. Bread/cheese are my weakness, so keeping these in but in moderation.

Will update in a month Smile

Thanks CM!
Only two days in but going great. I am really only experiencing hunger pangs at night from 8 on. Since I try to be in bed these days by 11, that is not so long. In the mornings, I am not hungry at all - no problem to wait to eat until 11.

After research, I decided that I needed to add b12 supplement since I am cutting out meat.

Feel good - I do not think I have lost lbs (not expecting too), but the bloat in my stomach area is gone.
