I’m still doing it though not to the hour anymore. We have dinner at 5-6 and that’s usually my last food for the day. Then coffee and water in the morning at 7 then breakfast at 10. Usually getting an hour exercise in before breakfast 3 times per week, trying to do walks on all other days.
Been doing this since I started the thread so it’s my new normal. Really struggle to have breakfast before 10, sometimes I’m not hungry until 11ish. Have the odd day when I wake up starving and then I just eat as my body seems to need it.
Dunno about increased stamina or strength but I sure feel a lot better. Not as bloated as before and it seems like my body is better balanced. Also cut out a breakfast without noticing any difference in energy levels. Used to have one at 7 and then a second at 10, now just the second one but same amount of food as before.
I’m not clued up enough to give a recommendation but maybe it’s just not for you? Or try changing the hours a bit? Maybe 9/15 is better for you? Or 10/14? 🤷♂️

Anyone done 16/8 for more than a few months?
I'm finding it tough. Started at new year, so only a month in, but my rides and runs are noticeably slower/harder (in the morning before eating 12-8) and I'm not feeling or seeing any physical improvements off the bike yet.
Wondering how long until you felt/saw the benefits? I like the simplicity of 16/8 mainly because I can't be arsed to count calories but it's frustrating to lose what little form I had ... Will it improve?
