re: To those who have tried intermittent fasting

Like the 2nd or 3rd day when you realize you got this.

I'm now into my 5th month of doing it several days a week and I've never felt more in tune with my body.

I basically wake up every weekday now with the goal of keeping it going until 4PM. I'd say that on 40% of the days I make it rather easily. Another 20% of days I have to cheat with a few tablespoons of kimchi or sauerkraut and that helps me power through, and the other 40% it's no big deal, its just not working that particular day.

Come 4pm - 6PM for the first time in my life my body tells me it is craving things like romaine lettuce, apples, beef broth, salmon.

It's really great - I am so happy I've found IF.
