I have the nephew and kids but they were not here all afternoon. One of the kids went to a birthday party. My niece came by also. I've had a good day
I cut back on caffiene today and only drank zero sugar cokes. I can tell a difference plus I've taken my Aleve p.m. mostly to curb the pain in neck and lower back. But im beginning to feel sleepy. Hopefully my brain will turn off tonight.

Fitbit totals are low today not sure why. I went to the gym and walked on the treadmill for 30 minutes. But it didn't count my steps. Nor the minutes. I didn't track calories today either.
had to reset my laptop back to factory setting. It was about to crash.
think my body is accepting the eating every three hours. Still trying to not eat at night but that a hard habit to break.

Hey. You did a good job that day. Do you fast 4 hours before sleep and after sleep? How do you do this specifically? I am thinking to try it too.

I'm retired and have no set schedule. I usually get up at 7.30 take my shower and get ready for the day. By then its 8.00 and then take my thyroid med. I have to wait an hour before I eat so 9.00 a.m. is when I start my eating . Im a grazer so ive decided to eat evey 3 hours to help curb my snacking all day long. Normally its a 4 hour window between each meal. It's very hard for me to get the full 16 hour window of not eating but I try to have my last snack at 7.30 p.m.to get at least a 12 hour window of not eating.
Hey there, I also just started tinkering with IF. For right now, I'm doing 14/10. I fast from 7pm - 9am. One thing I already notice is that I actually feel a lot better when I wake up....no bloating or stomach aches. I may work up to 16/8 over time, but for now I'm trying this. Love to hear others IF journeys!
Hi USER 123
I want to work up to a 16:8 window but i do good for a 12/12 . I like the idea of a 10:14to start.

Didnt post totals yesterday buy I'm sure I want to. I was way off track. Can I blame it nephew and kids. Nephew is going out of town this weekend with his gf.to take her daughter to a specialist for diabetes. She is only 2. Yep there's two of them. Anyway my nephew calls as I was on my way to a WM for groceries when he calls to ask if he and the kids could spend the night. I hesitated but said yes. I do love those kids and would do most anything for nephew.
They came on a school night which why I was hesitant but all worked out. last night he made a pallet on the floor for all of them Our little one wanted her daddy. Next week they will be sleeping in my king bed if little one wants to sleep with daddy.
I forgot the pallet was on the floor. I walked across it and my toe caught one of the quilts and down I went on the hardwood floor. It ouched a lot. I don't think anything is broken but I'm sore especially on my right side.
Sis stopped by after her hair appointment and we went to lunch and shopping for a little while. One of her granddaughters is having a birthday party tomorrow.
