Baffles me that ppl think they’re going to whither away if they don’t eat breakfast.
I used to be that guy, nowadays it just seems really silly.
I would bet eating breakfast is more of a new age concept , within the last 150 yrs, get up and quick stuff your face…

I skip breakfast because I'm not hungry in the morning when I get up

And I changed my mind on following these podcasts. The only thing I listen to now is my body.

If you’re not hungry don’t eat but if you’re hungry, eat. Sometimes I wake up famished other times I want coffee. Thanks to people like you and you information, I’m focusing on healing my body and listening to my body.

If you're not fat adapted, fasting of any kind can be difficult. If you're fat adapted, it can be really easy since you're just not hungry.

Key is not skipping but narrowing the eating window. It’s worked a treat for me.

I used to intermittently fast for the last few years (skipping breakfast) and switched to the last meal at 5 pm and first meal at 5 am. I work a physical job and noticed that my energy levels are generally higher throughout the day, and my cognitive facilities are more acute.

Great she's up to date with the newest scientific papers...

Everyone is different and I don’t believe there is a single solution, we have to find what works best for our goals, our lifestyles and our physical and mental capabilities. I feel so much better when fasting and rarely eat breakfast but if the only time I can go to the gym is early in the morning, then I have pre and post workout protein for breakfast. I have a busy work schedule so have to plan my gym sessions around it and then plan my meals according to my exercise. Strength training is my priority and food comes after that.

Even though you don't seem to acknowledge all the comments I'm still glad to support. I continue to heal and get in better shape so I truly appreciate the content. Keep up the good work.

It’s not so much about changing your mind on something. It’s about adaptation in your n=1. When I first started Keto, 2mad worked awesome with a 18:6 intermittent fasting window. After losing 50 lbs and getting to a normal weight, I went back up to 3mad time restricted feeding prioritizing protein. You have to consider where you stand on your priorities. I don’t have a gallbladder and have to titrate fat more carefully. One size or construct does not fit all.

What studies is she referring to when she says you will lose muscle mass if you skip a meal

@rj5822 2 years ago

Everyone started tracking macros and realized how much they were under eating protein and how much volume in complex carbs and fibrous veggies it takes to hit their carb macros

@CitizenoftheWorld1 2 years ago

I eat my first meal at 11am, but I make sure to have supplements with amino acids and electrolytes first thing in the morning. I accepted that losing weight comes with some muscle loss (whether or not you're fasting), so the best thing I can do is eat a lot of protein and lift weights regularly. I can live with that.

Well, I can't trust someone who changes her lifestyle when every new study comes. Secondly, I gained like 20 pounds of muscle in 4 -5 months with evening Intermittent fasting, so muscle building is as good as any type of diet as long as you eat enough calories and protein. And my insulin response is perfect, I was Pre diabetic before I started evening Intermittent fasting years ago, and now I have all blood markers perfect, and sleep like a king,so I couldn't care less of studies, which by the way, change every year, but your blood markers and how do you Feely, that's real. Best

I eat when I'm hungry. It's the easiest method. Sometimes it's a few times a day. Occasionally it may be 50 hours later.

@robertoj8950 2 years ago (edited)

I’m eating every day only once every 24 hours and lifting weights almost daily and so far my muscles keep getting bigger and stronger so until now it seems she’s wrong but I started two weeks ago with my fasting so time will tell me if I should continue or listen to her 😮. I have lots of energy and feel good . Edited:wait she said if your not exercising is when you loose muscle and that I agree with her.

@netrimo589 2 years ago

Fasting works for me because i can slam 3 cups of coffee and forget about food until 3 or 4pm. It might not be optimal, but sometimes the most optimal path isn't always the most practical path, If you're sure you can travel the optimal path, then go for it. If you have a high likelihood of failure, then find the path forward that gets you to your destination, even if it isn't the most efficient.
