What are your thoughts on intermittent fasting? Have you tried it? What do you think of it? Is it an effective method to lose fat?
eating one meal at night feels pretty good man
you'd be surprised at how much more energetic you feel during the day after the initial adjustment period

I was think of doing something like the warrior diet. I plan on eating a meal at 6 pm, then do my exercises and shit shortly after, then have my second meal at 10 pm, then fast for 20 hours.
Hello, I have done IF for 1 week and have lost about 2 lbs, which not seem like much but I only want to loose 10 lbs so for me it was great. The second day was the only time I was cranky. I honestly think it does the same for me as my normal diet however I fell off the wagon hard, I binge ate shit food for months. The cravings were so bad, i couldn't snap out of it. What IF did for me was stop those cravings and made me realize exactly how much I was over eating.
It's pretty great. I used to just eat dinner every night. Being able to binge daily while losing weight is absolutely fantastic.
Only problem is the hunger during the day, especially if you're in a physical job.

It's working pretty well for me, I eat at two ish and then again at about nine, lost a bit over the last two months or so, I don't know if it's more effective than counting calories, and as I'm aware the jury is still out re: all the other health benefits, Jesus it's easy though, it really works for my lifestyle

I enjoy it. It's a matter of preference though, achieving the same deficit through multiple meals or fewer meals. I just find it's easier to eat muh protein if I'm hungry, and spending most of my time not eating seems to have helped kill my addiction to eating.

If you do it right while at the gym it can be real good, just don't over do it like I did
I started getting depressed and used to fast for 3 days and then ate like a apple or something next day, then back to it, lost 10kg in one month then I puked blood and saw how retarded I was. Been IF normally for a while now and the results are pretty satisfying so far

that sounds more like fasting than intermittent fasting

Yep, I heard about IF and decided to do it, overdid it and basically I was straight out fasting

I loved it
IF is great especially if you hate eating
I mostly did a 16 hour fast with an 8 hour eating window but sometimes I would end up fasting for 20 hours on accident
Just drink lots of water if you feel hungry
I experienced greater fat loss while doing IF as opposed to not doing it
