Intermittent Fasting Daily Menu/Results/Accountability

  • Popular Post

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? :D

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!!!

  • Ok, I'll start this. I'm about 6 1/2 months out from RNY surgery. I'm down 123.6lbs from my most recent high weight of 287lbs as of last May 5, 2017. You can see my stats in the signature panel and on

But what if it goes all right???
(if it's in powdered form and you plan to make hot tea, add a little hot water to it first to make a smooth paste in the cup to prevent clumping, then slowly stir in the rest.)

Ooooh thanks. Everything on the packet is in Japanese (I think?) so I have no idea what to do with it except stir it into yoghurt and smoothies lol

Breakfast (Saving Matcha for mid-morning). :) I'll salute you then! :D

I love using hard fried egg + extra carton egg whites to make a taco!

It will also be my biggest meal of the day calorically. :) Couldn't do IF back to back today. Woke up starving. So will just do a calorie restricted day <700cals.

It makes me laugh to get this much food for 200 calories! I coulda done it for less by only using 1 slice of ham + an HEB light cheese wedge, but I needed to use up the Kraft cuz it's pretty old. :)

Further evidence @greentealael and I are alternate universe versions of each other ... I detest matcha and not even embedding it in a rice crispy treat can make it palatable ?

And I couldn't even eat most rice Krispy treats even if they were soaked in Matcha... curiouser and curiouser

Must acquire more evidence

LOL! I lean towards your dark side Yoda! :) I had mine with a just a sprinkle of Crystal Light Lemonade yesterday. Was pretty yum, but also pretty sure I totally nuked any chance of it being restorative and healthy! :)

Cheers Queen Matcha!

I'm sure I'm doing this wrong, but I added a squeeze of lemon and some vanilla liquid stevia. Better, but not as good as the Lemonade Crystal Lite Drink Stix sprinkle I used yesterday. :D

Nah, that's mostly Chinese with some Korean at the top (not that I have any idea what "goya powder" is).
