Hey y'all! Anyone and everyone is welcome to jump in and join us.
This is the Intermittent Fasting DAily Menu/Results/Accountability Thread. It's where a few of us (or many) are going to log in and encourage each other while we experiment with our own IF plans. You can list or talk about anything--not just your food. I look forward to adding in HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) and core exercises to my walking plan while practicing IF. So expect to hear about that too. hehe I expect some of us will talk about the known IF side-effects like insomnia, circadian rhythm disturbance, etc. It's all good! Let's hack this IF mofo! mkay?
There is not any 1 specific IF plan--there are so many to choose from, so this is a BYOIFP (bring-your-own-IF-plan) and join the fun! This is the thread where we'll post our daily menus and maybe some piccys at times! We can discuss progress, issues we might notice, look at how we may want to refine our own personal plans. I do think you should be healed from surgery and have your doctor's and RD's blessings to try something like this and you should do a ton of research and reading about Intermittent Fasting.
IF isn't only about weight loss, it's about taking specific measures to limit either quantities, calories, macros, or sometimes only consciously altering eating windows/schedules in order to effect metabolic change and reduce inflammation and improve health markers.
Ok, let's do this thang!!!
I have Barrett's and am getting the RNY. I would rather have done the sleeve also, but this is really the only option for me. Also have the hernia and quite a bit of dysplasia on the esophagus. My surgery is scheduled for 25th and I am trying to read everything I can get my hands on so I know what to watch for. The big book on gastric bypass was a life saver! So many questions answered! My surgeon has been pretty patient with me too, but knowing I had Barrett's he was pleased I had "chosen" the RNY despite the drawbacks just because of the benefits be of getting all that acid away from my pyloric valve and the near by tissue that has been taking a bath despite 40mg of Omeprazole a day .
