Hi There, I've never tried IF before but I've been reading a lot about it trying to figure out if its for me or not. I have approximately 80lbs to lose. Has anyone here had success in losing a chunk of weight by doing IF? If so did it take a while or was it fairly quickly? Any tips or suggestions? I'm thinking today will be my first day...I have young kids at home and dinner is usually at 6....so if I did I guess my eating window would be 10 to 6? I appreciate any advice you can give or personal experiences.
