@Filthy:

It's the easiest diet I have ever done. I am kind of surprised how easy.

I did for health benefits rather than weight loss but I know it's good for weight management. What are you doing 16/8?

More like 19/5. Skipping breakfast, then a small breakfast for lunch and a big dinner. When I go back to work it will probably be a big breakfast and lunch, then no dinner. I also don't want to lose too much weight, so I might just go back to normal when I am working, then do this when I am off.

I stick with mostly 16/8 and a few longer ones here and there. Done a few 24hrs which were easier than I expected. I find it easier when I am actually at work. My energy levels are great.

[mention]spitfiredealer [/mention] [mention]Filthy [/mention] +1 for the intermittent fasting regimen. My wife and I started doing 16/8 about 8 months ago mostly for the health benefits and we’ve both been pleased with the noticeable results. Not necessarily weight loss but overall well being. It has been easier than I expected as well. I miss breakfast sometimes but I make up for it by eating breakfast food at lunch.

Apache, Scotch Bonnet, Seven Pot Yellow, and Jalapeño…

That is just beautiful @goosehd I want to pickle them all now.

They looks fantastic @goosehd - fermenting?

We pickle them, put them into sauces, and relishes.

Sometimes we dry and grind the peppers and add them to foods for a little extra kick.

The seven pots are insanely hot, but with a fruity flavour. Slow build up in heat and then hits you like a hammer!!

Very nice! I tried to grow scotch bonnets this year om a windowsill but my cat had other ideas and trashed the poor things before they had a chance to produce anything

Super-envious. I'm fighting a losing battle with slugs and snails…...

IF rocks… 16/8 here breaking fast from 11-7. I feel better and body composition did improve including loss of fat. I view its main benefits as being outside of the weight loss but it really helps with that if you’re an all day grazer like me.

@goosehd that looks like a magazine cover, beautiful product and shot!

This is exactly how I’ve been doing it and I agree 100% with the benefits. Wish I had done it sooner.
