Anybody have any experience with Intermittent Fasting? I'm doing the 20 hour fast, then 4 hours of eating method, has anybody had better results with a different method?

Just do whatever you like most or whatever works best, I personally have a 6 hour feeding window, from 2pm to 8pm, works out pretty good for me.
"Everyone thinks they're on their way to single digit body fat as soon as they see a blurry four-pack in the right lighting.Your final body weight at 5-6% will be a lot less than what you think.Talk to me again when you get in contest shape." I'd be willing to say that 95% of people on this forum accomplish nothing in years, don't be one of those people. It's sad,they seem to have the knowledge many don't but can't utilize it.

I'm down almost 11 pounds and i'm almost finished my first month.
I use the 16/8 method, I really enjoy it.
I'm not sure how much body fat % i've lost, need to get a decent gauge/tester/meter or whatever they are called!**CAN Army Veteran**

Different feeding windows won't grant different results. It comes down to personal preference.

I eat a very small lunch 400 calories then a massive 1400 calorie post workout meal. I have used a few different schedules and they all provide the same weight loss but the current one is the best for satiety for me.

I'm currently IF'ing. 16/8 here. I typically eat 3 small meals cause I love eating then I eat a gigantic meal post-workout.

If calorie intake is the same in both, that's true. However, if you can do a longer fasting period without feeling like complete **** then you typically won't eat as much in a shorter window cuz basically, you're full. That's how it is for me anyway. When I do a 20/4 window I eat less in the day (with 1 meal and a shake) than I do in a 16/8 or other window.Originally Posted by Size16
