Does the pigging out cancel it though? From what little I've read, I don't think it does
What time do you stop eating if you can hold out until midday? I think easiest for me is to finish dinner at 6 and not eat after that, which brings me to a 10am breakfast
kboy-
Depends how you define pigging out. If it’s eating in a carefree manner but within the calorie expenditure for the day, then that’s fine; if it’s eating above calorie expenditure to overcompensate for the fasted period, then that’s counter productive.
Try the Zero app, which provides information on these topics and may help motivate you. Although if you have deleted Strava then Zero might not be for you.
snoops
Following this with interest. I've been fasting (I guess 16/8) for a few weeks now.
Surprisingly the need for breakfast just goes. I don't really wake up hungry. Once 12-1 rolls around I'm in need of it though!
The other thing that I struggle with is to then not pig out during the afternoon as that really makes it all pointless.
