Of all the single meals I could have, the one before bedtime doesn't sound the best one to choose.

Skip dinner and done.

I have been intrigued by intermittent fasting but not sure it would work for me. My husband and son both sort of do this anyway though not intentionally. During the fasting periods, can you still drink water and coffee? If not (at least the water) that would be a deal breaker for me.

I find intermittent fasting so fascinating because of all of the different versions that are out there. I'm always curious about other people's plans and what works for them even though I know something may not work for me.

forkeeps - I'm not a coffee drinker, but I drink water and lots of it during my fasting periods. I also drink herbal teas as well.

There are a few versions of intermittent fasting. Find the one that fits your lifestyle. My eating time starts around 12 noon and ends around 5 pm. I stop eating early because I go bed early during the week. On the weekend, my eating window starts around 1 or 2 pm. After doing Fast-5 for a month, my hunger diminished. And that's a good thing.
I like lots of Tea and water during my fasting hours.
