Oh sure, I do it almost every Friday night, after Friday lunch out at a restaurant, but that’s been the ONLY time I’ve been IF’ing since mid summer.I realized last night that I miss it!When I was more regularly intermittent fasting (in my case, not eating dinner or anything after a mid afternoon snack)…I felt AWESOME!  I felt light, free, mind crystal clear (always a wonderful thing at 63 LOL)…in control, on top of the world.I want more of that, again!So I’m going to start making it a point to IF through dinner at least twice, preferably 3 times, a week.Of course, to do this in a medically safe way, there are guidelines:1.  if you’ve never done this before, make sure you don’t have any underlying medical condition for which this would be unsafe.  Check with your regular physician first if you are unsure.2

I woke up feeling slightly flat and just did not feel like hitting the full bodyweight workout. I decided instead to make it a Tabata day! That turned out to be the right choice. After the stretching regimen, I had a good, challenging, solid, BUT short workout! I did, however, substitute the rope jumping for the Tabata cardio, which I have to get back to

I’ve been hanging out w/ some people, affiliated with “Beachbody” (P90X, Shakeology, I’m not selling it. Aside from the $$ aspect of it–Shakeology isn’t cheap– it seems to offer a usefully supportive community similar for that sort of thing, except there, the answer to many questions is “Shakeology” instead of “pump/ CGM” LOL…) who work out a lot with both general health and weight loss involved, although some of them are into lifting and getting more muscle, which is a separate challenge.After 5 weeks, I’ve noticed that when I don’t eat 1800 calories/ day for a day or two, I’ll stop losing weight so I think that’s the minimum number of calories. The people who are really into it and have gotten excellent results pay attention to macros, or macronutrients, adjusting the %age of carb/ protein/ fat depending on what their goal is.
