When I first started doing the 4 hour eating window I kind of thought it meant I can eat for four hours and that didn't work out to well for me. Now I try to eat one meal and not overeat. I like a late breakfast so I usually end up with a 3 egg omelet and bacon or sausage and 1 piece of toast. That or I have a low carb (5g) protein drink at the beginning and later have a lunch with soup/salad with pieces of chicken. I sometimes sneak in some low carb peanut butter cups as a treat before my eating window closes 🙂 When I first started doing it was a little difficult but became much easier and I wasn't as hungry when I started the 20/4 intermittent fasting.
I recently purchased a BlendJet and love it for ease of use. I will through in some water or juice, then add some fresh spinach leaves followed by some fresh blueberries and a few pieces of frozen fruit (mostly berries). Then I top it off with a spoonful of flax and chia seeds and mix it up. I find the smoothie pretty filling and helps control my hungries.
Hope this helps!
