Does anyone use this? Success rate? Anyside effects? Do the side effects wear off?
I found the same @Mrs_A_Wrinkly - after more than a year now the appetite reduction is less, and I'm struggling a little with weight regain, but blood sugar is even unless I've been very out of order with carbs, and I feel like a new person, with hope I didn't have before.
I should also say I credit intermittent fasting with helping me to better health, but I believe that wouldn't have happened without dulaglutide giving me a chance to change.
Hi @Mrs_A_Wrinkly I should also say everyone should talk with their Dr or DN about medications before fasting. My Dr was a bit wary and said I should only fast if I carried out intensive monitoring of blood sugar and blood pressure as I'm on meds for both, but the meds I take are not known to cause hypos. I have never experienced a hypo, even when fasting for 4 and a half days.Thank you for this.
And I think I’ll give intermittent fasting a go... given your thoughts.
