Hi, add me to the list of people who've dipped a toe into IF. I just kind of decided on Monday to not eat breakfast until I really felt hungry, which didn't happen until 1 pm. I ate about 650 calories, then wasn't hungry again until dinner. I've since gone 18:6 every day (2 meals and one small snack) this week, and wow, I can't believe how well I'm responding to it. I feel great, and even though I do get hungry (like right now ), it's such a different hunger from carby hunger, I can just tell myself that dinner is in 90 minutes, and drink more water.

I definitely like being full after a meal, instead of just "well, I guess I need to stop now."

I'm down 1.5 lbs since Monday--I think I was in a bit of whoosh anyway after about six weeks of not really getting anywhere, but I'm now at a weight I haven't been at in 14 years. And I can't imagine this is related, but two years of terrible back trouble relented about 36 hours ago--not completely cured, but so so much better.

I'll be lurking....
