Generally, yes, but through IF I’ve made diet changes that have stuck with me to this day. No longer having Cereal is one of them. It was too easy to just eat the stuff. I also already enjoyed unsweet tea and sparkling water so that’s helped too.
I also took walks around me neighborhood (about 6000 steps) about 3 times a week.
It also helped me to weigh myself daily so I can see if my efforts helped and that motivated me to continue my routine.
I should mention that IF is 60lbs of my ~110lb weight loss. I did hit a wall around 270 and received some help by taking phentermine while continuing IF. That got me to 227lbs.
Good for you for making such a big step (no pun intended) towards healthier living. I do find that a lot of people who go on a long fast or fast regularly have this change in their relationship with food. It’s like you push yourself to do someone out of your norm and then you realize it’s not that hard to resist cravings after a while. Exercise is definitely important, hope you keep it up!
