I just lost 20 pounds last year with intermittent fasting five or six days a week. I didn't expect to lose weight it just sounded interesting. So I tried it. Losing 20 pouns knocked my cholesterol down to where it should be. Not that it was way too high, just borderline. It also knocked my blood sugar down where it should be. It was borderline also at 100. So I don't want to gain that 20 pounds back. I don't eat anything until about 9 or 10 in the morning. Dinner is at 6 in the evening. That's been holding my weight right where I like it. Now I need to eat something with the prednisone I'm told and I don't want to eat breakfast again. So I've been working toward eating and taking the prednisone about 9 in the morning. Not so convenient as just when I get up. But it's an easy way to lose weight if you don't mind being a bit hungry for awhile. I started the intermittant fasting doing all my eating in an 8 hour period. Now I try to eat in an 8 or 9 hour window. Once or twice a week I have breakfast out with friends. That's the most I go out to eat.
