I skip breakfast and sometimes lunch, and have been for about 4 months now, I think... It was a bit of a nuisance in the beginning, as my stomach wasn't happy with it, but I (and it) got used to it pretty fast. I did hit upper-three's a few times then, but didn't feel hypo. I stabilised since into 4's and 5's, rarely sixes. I don't often leave the house on weekdays, so on the weekends I'll have breakfast, because I'm more active then. Maybe will skip lunch or have a late one though. But admittedly, this past weekend was a lot more active than I'm used to: Holland is flat, and there was a lot of upward mobility, so to speak, haha. Too many hills where I was, but oh, it was nice. Between that, pain, hormones, and sleepless nights... I guess something was bound to give.Do you often skip meals @JoKalsbeek ?.Just curious because i have done this IF and no it isn't for me. I didn't do to badly on it but i did get very shaky and no my levels didn't go low. Normal for me in fact. Also got nervous as well. So it seems many can go without food and some even days, but for me it would make me shaky, nervous and quite sick. Sleepless wouldn't help either. I did have a bit of a giggle at you saying your not normal. I can relate to nervousness especially around people and depression but since getting into my 50's and now 60's i really don't get that anymore but still remember it. I think your normal.
And thank you. I hear so many other people having a hard time around others, and with depression, maybe I'm The New Normal? I'm so glad I have this place... You guys made/make me feel so much better.
