I'm looking for good links and info on intermittent fasting. Is there a group for this on here? Or can anyone give me a rundown?

    http://jamesclear.com/the-beginners-guide-to-intermittent-fasting has good infographics showing different kinda of intermittent fasting. http://dailyburn.com/life/health/intermittent-fasting-methods/ is also an OK beginner guide. http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/intermittent-fasting-science-and-supplementation.html is more of the same.

    So this is my month 2 of 5:2 diet and results are awesome.I fast 2 days a week and eat 500 cal on my fast days,it's upto you if you want to save it for one meal or spread it throughout your day.Rest of the 5 days you eat normal.I'm working out 3/week.I don't feel hungry my job fast days anymore.First week or two will be a little difficult but will get easy with each week.

    Been doing 16:8 for 2 weeks now combined with low carb and have lost 9lbs even with being sick for over a week of that time with a cold and having my period the other week of it. Better yet, I FEEL so much better! My sluggishness and brain fog are almost completely gone. I'm dieting for weight loss but doing IF to try to get healthier and heal some of the maladies I'm dealing with... and it's working for BOTH things.
