Intermittent Fasting

Is anyone else doing intermittent fasting? I’m only a month into it and am wondering if there are long-term IF-ers here on FGB. Has it helped or hindered your work performance?

Hi! I have been doing IF steadily since July 2019. BUT, I will admit that on some early rise mornings I have had to eat something protein-dense after working out. In preparation, the night before I shift my last snack/meal to earlier to try to maintain the pattern of 8hrs active/able to eat vs. 16 hrs inactive. Coffee/tea in the morning is a big help; water and vitamins are essential! I feel that this has helped my work performance because I am more mindful, regularly thinking of food as fuel... but if I am ravenous then I fill up the tank before getting back on schedule.

I'm doing it! I've been on-and-off for several months now (okay, it was only one off-period but it lasted for a couple of weeks). I find that if I drink lots of water and tea in the morning in lieu of breakfast, it helps prevent me from going into, "RAWR I'M HUNGRY AND WANT A FRENCH TOAST BREAKFAST SANDWICH." (I *do* have one cup of coffee so that helps too :P )
