Besides, the interval fasting makes dangerous belly fat melt.
I use intermittent fasting to give my body a break where I leave at least 14 hours in between the last meal of the day and the first meal of the next day. That has made quite a difference to me and took a bit to not reach for little snacks in between those hours but now that it's become habit I don't get the urge to snack the same.
I don't know yet how long I will keep this, but to continue after this extreme fasting I will choose this intermittent fasting as well.
