    I do a minimum of 14:10, but sometimes it's 16:8. Basically as a rule I don't eat before 12PM and don't eat after 10PM. I have a horrible binging issue and I've found skipping breakfast helps me. I also try to drink a minimum of 48oz of water in the morning before lunch. Not all at once I mean, I fill up a 24oz cup twice. I also drink black coffee. I couldn't do it if I wasn't hydrated and caffeinated lol. I've also found that skipping breakfast allows me to put a lot more calories into lunch, supper, and snacks. I love sitting down to a huge meal, and IF allows me to do that.

    I usually fast for 12 hours at night. I usually eat a big dinner and then fast until lunch the next day. I do continue to drink water during this time to keep my metabolism running.

    I'm really hoping this will help with my binge eating too.
