Congrats and thank you for sharing your story with us! I will be following you and look forward to seeing more of your journey. I am so stoked that Intermittent fasting worked for you. As a person with a nutrition and fitness background I have advocated for this lifestyle as there is some good sound science behind it. To me it makes perfect sense. However, I definitely received a lot of criticism from my fitness peers who are stuck in the everyone has to eat 6 small meals a day and that has to start with breakfast. Keep up the great work. I have followed you and look forward to hearing more about your journey as you continue to explore your fasting periods.
I myself follow a fasting routine, as well, I am in the process of transitioning to a vegan diet. Right now I am I only eat roughly two to three meals a day between the hours of 11 and 6.
Keep up the great work and happy homesteading!

The 6 small meals a day is the WORST diet ever invented. Every time you eat your insulin spikes. It is a proven medical fact that increased insulin causes obesity, and creates insulin resistance leading to diabetes. So yeah, let’s follow a diet that keeps our insulin raised all day long? I think not.
The reason intermittent fasting works is because your insulin levels remain lower for longer periods of time. This reverses insulin resistance and leads to PERMANENT weight loss.
Thanks for following me. I was just reading one of your posts and decided to follow you. I’m looking forward to reading more of your posts.
