[QUOTE="AloeSvea, post: 2616805, member: 150927"] Just my latest thoughts and experience with a long-term IF eating window regime. (I know there is an acronym for it - but I never learnt it!) It's the day before winter solstice- just to remind - the shortest day/darkest day, after which the days get longer again and lighter over time until we get to the sunrise to sunset nirvanna time - summer! And the summer solstice. And I found myself accidentally using the clock to have breakfast this morning, and not the light levels, on automatic pilot as it were. Which I am not usually on (autopilot), having been doing this IF regime for 13 months now (2 days off a week, usually Friday and Saturday or Saturday and Sunday, for social reasons). So why this morning? It didn't get light till 7 (being the day before the solstice), and I was cold and hungry, and, had had a good night sleep. I forgot! My desire for my low carb rolls slathered in butter, with stevia sweetened marmalade, and a hot cup of coffee, or more, over powered my IF regime, unconsciously. Thought I would share. This last week I have also been missing out on dinner, or linner (mid to late afternoon for a combo of lunch and dinner), because I had too much to do in the daylight hours. For physical activity I need lots of breakfast, and lunch. Especially when it is clear skies and low or no wind. So by the next morning, yeah, I am really hungry, and I have been facing my large windows waiting for the sun to rise, for sure. And as I always say - I could not do this without coffee. This is the time when this particular IF regime is the hardest! When it is the darkest for longest. [/QUOTE]
