That's not a fad, just common sense

It's a good diet if you want to lose weight extremely slowly while constantly battling your body.

Its a good diet if you eat healthy foods like you're supposed to.

Its people who bastardise the meaning of it to mean "I can eat junk food and still lose weight" then wonder why it isn't actually working.

>battling your body
I don't know what you mean by that

Well, it wasnt a diet per say, but during my Freshman year of college, I wanted to be taller and I read that people can still grow up to an inch or 2 by 25yo, with the right diet. Namely plenty of milk and whole grains.

So every day, I proceeded to drink 3 glasses of chocolate milk and got my "grains" from that Quakers Maple and Brown Sugar oatmeal.

My freshman 15 ended up being more like a freshman 30.

I have done IF for 8 years on accident, literally never hungry for breakfast, usually have late lunch (2pm), dinner between 7pm and 9pm. Tried keto meme when starting to work out, only really helped me stop craving sugar.

Carrots and water

Back in 2008 I still believed in the "eat 6-9 meals per day to keep your metabolism going" broscience. It can't really hurt you as long as you're not over- or undereating, but it's still broscience.
