    MTs weekly weigh in week 8: 171.2 pounds, belly 36 1/4 inches. Glad to see the weight still coming off, despite broadening my eating window to around 5 hours. Still eating the same amount though. I miss the convenience of eating it all on one plate, but eating all my food right before bedtime was interfering with my sleep. eating earlier would work fine, but I do not have access to a kitchen til late in the evening, and i would sure miss eating fresh home cooked grub!

    MT's weekly weigh in week 9 170.0 pounds, 35 7/8 inches. Giving up on the big evening meal and moving to late morning to see if it improves my sleep. on day 3 and I think my energy levels are getting better, will take some getting used to.

    Im the opposite, I sleep better with a full tummy. I hope this new eating time helps you sleep better. You're still losing pounds and inches and that's great :)

    Thanks! I did wake up a few times last night, so yet to be determined. Ideally I would like to eat the big meal in the early evening, but work gives me no access to a kitchen, and I cannot resign myself to only eating cold and, or raw food.

    MTs week 10 weigh in 167.8 pounds 35 inches! I think I am starting to get some of the other benifits of IF, besides steady weight loss, like more energy and motivation, etc... I think eating mostly in the morning and spreading my energy intake to 5-6 hours a day is helping, and I am sleeping better. I miss the convenience of stuffing all my feeding into less than one hour and being done, but health is my first priority. :)

    Nice job this week! I also sleep better and have more even energy when I eat over a longer IF window when I am exercising, which is what I know I will do in maintenance!

    week 13 weigh in. oooooops 165.4 ! first time gaining weight since starting. I did a little splurging with the family on our annual fishing trip, if that is why, it was well worth it! :) waist measurement is still showing progress with just over 34 inches!

    Shrinking and gaining weight makes me laugh. Silly HGH.
