Ladies on Intermittent Fasting Support

kdclarinet

The struggle is real! I weighed over 200 lbs for 25 years, had a hysterectomy, and everything CHANGED, I managed to lose 18 lbs with IF and just ate dinner. Kept if off for a year. Have gained and lost it 3 times and am sick of it. Tried hyspnosis, nutition, but need new inspiration. Can anyone recommend any materials to boost self esteem while doing IF?

If it's allowed, for keeping weight off I'd like to recommend Half Size Me on YouTube, there's playlists on almost everything, there's also podcasts & it's all free

I am postmenopausal. I have always done intermittent fasting in one form or another. I lost all of my weight and have been maintaining for over three years. I don't eat after 4 p.m. It is fairly easy for me because I don't really give it much thought. I am retired and I enjoy a big breakfast and big lunch. I eat 1200 calories per day and have never stopped logging every BLT (bite, lick, taste). I am very short and with age, even shorter. I maintain between 115 and 125 pounds. I have found sodium to be the most important variable in my weight.

I've been practicing IF for 3 years. I went off for 5 months last year and it took just as long to lose what I'd gained but I LOST IT and am now slowly but consistently losing again. As of today, I've lost AND MAINTAINED 72 pounds! My goal is to lose 100 so just 28 to go!

Would it be ok to do IF and cut calories to about15,00 everyday, then eat 600 calories on the fasting two days? I need to lose 100 lbs. I have already lost 15 lbs. in two weeks. I know that is a lot of weight lost quickly. I am eating healthy foods using the Fitness Pal app. I am 69 years old.
