  • I've been doing 18:6 intermittent clean fasting for 3 weeks for this exact reason...mindless eating/snacking. I started with 16:8 IF and then quickly found that I preferred a slightly longer fast. It has helped me lose 11 pounds, but also get my snacking under control. If I want something, I put it aside a wait for my…

I cam close at 153, but then had some bounce-back weight, had 2 years of thinking I was "cured" and could eat like a "normal" person. Got up to 173.8 and freaked! Couldn't believe I put on 20 lbs in what I imagined was…
