Thanks for the welcome!
Right now I do barely get my Protein in if I drink milk.
And lol, you absolutely pegged my calorie intake. Usually under 500 cal/day

I think one of the reasons I’d like to try IF soon is reading about how the body really won’t cannabalize it’s own protein and will burn fat more.
Also a small part of me is scared that when my hunger kick in, it will be so much harder and if I start this now, I’ll have the habit for when the actual hunger kicks in.

Ahhh.... I’m going to wait at least a week or two (or however long it takes to hold over 1/2 cup food at a time) then think seriously about this

You are ALREADY in a fasted state by virtue of the lack of calorie intake. LOL. I would rephrase this that if it were ME...I would strongly NOT do IF so soon after surgery. Seriously. WE NEED TO GET OUR PROTEIN intake steady. EAT. Eat enough veggies with your protein. Eat healthy fat. If you want, become Keto adapted not only cuz of your calorie intake but by keeping your carbs low and protein adequate. That's gonna take MUCH longer than 2 weeks. Let the surgery do the job it's meant to do and control the QUALITY of your diet more than the quantity right now. At some point quantity will become an issue but not in the early days--maybe not even until the 9-10th month...

At about the 6month mark it would be appropriate to entertain ideas about IF, but even then that may be too soon.

This is just my opinion. I clearly am not an RD or doc. LOL. And I don't play one on the internet.

Dang! So you guys, I'm totally counting this as a win, cuz Dr. F. says that we "can" use Bone Broth and even in some cases a tiny amounts of greens on a fast. Well last night I had 1 cup of bone broth with about 1/8c of baby spinach and a tiny crimini mushroom. Total maybe 55cals? MAYBE? And only Water, green tea, matcha, and black decaff coffee the rest of the day. I'm riding high going into 36 hours this morning! I'm gonna push it until dinner tonight. Wooohooooo! Feel good. Mr. F. also did it and even better, he stopped his metformin yesterday and his fasting bg was only 102 this morning. It fell to 90 yesterday afternoon! I'm super stoked!!! :)

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!
