  • Five years ago, I started Intermittent Fasting to lose weight, reduce my body fat percentage, and stop snacking. And it worked great. For the first time, I wasn’t constantly thinking about my next meal.
    But then, it all changed. This is the shocking truth of what happened next.

    I don't think you should feel guilty at all about changing your lifestyle and intermittent fasting. It worked when you needed it and now your changing things up to meet the new goals you have in your life!! 🤗🤗

    Your site and advice has helped me in the last year. I'm nearing my weight loss goal after 4 years ... 190 lbs today, size 16. Aiming for 200 lbs and size 14 (I have lots of loose skin..my nutrition doc estimates about 10lbs worth). Started intermitenting fasting in the last year to make it through a plateau or two.
    On the new meds now and see my goal is in sight. I mainly learned to try not to eat after 9pm, then not eat until noon or after my twice a week lap swim (40 minutes using a snorkle). Treadmill, gym workouts, etc. 5-6 days a week.
    I think back to the 1960s when we didn't snack after dinner so we went about 12 hours until breakfast..no epidemic of overweight society back then. My plant-focused diet with modest meat is the norm for me now (of course limited processed foods).
    All my best to you!

    Lacey, I too appreciate your transparency! I don't think you should feel any pressure to stick to something that is no longer working for you. Our bodies are not stagnate. So, not sure why we think what we eat and when we eat it should be. As I have aged, and certainly as I have gone through menopause, I have had to (and continue to) tweak my eating and workouts schedules over and over. Our bodies needs are not a one size fits all for all of our lives. Would be so much easier if they were though!

    Oh...no more IF! This is big for you. I ended a few years ago too. My question is, how often are you working out and are you doing creatine also on non workout days? I had shoulder surgery and lost sooo much muscle so once I get the ok to start slowly working out again I was thinking about doing creatine too. Would love to know your routine with workouts and creatine. The needing to drink 80-100 oz of water a day with creatine freaks me out. I drink a lot of water but what happens if a couple of days I don't?? I also have issues with bloating too. I wonder if it's all the snacking I do in the evening.

    We have known since the 1960's, want to build muscle, especially 35+ age, then bulking and cutting with high animal protein has always worked. Don't fear adding 10 to 20 lbs. Added body weight always helps strength. Learn to be comfortable being uncomfortable as well as not worrying about the taste of food. Bodybuilders and powerlifters have known this for years.

    • @laceybaier_

  • @annettemonty7350

    Could the bloating be from your plant base protein?

    • @laceybaier_
      @laceybaier_  Місяць тому +1

      Doubt it since I’ve been having the protein for 2 years and it only started when I stopped IF.

    Seriously intermittent fasting has benefits and drawbacks. And for a bit I was doing more of a fast mimicking approach because of some digestive issues. I've been doing maintenance for a few months. I'm mostly strict 2 mad and do mostly 16:8 as intentional, but sometimes do 20+ unintentionally. With my fast mimicking I couldn't do things like keto coffee because it's a trigger food. So I did non caffeinated herbal teas I diluted 1oz broth into and 1-2 tsp coconut oil. Sometimes I did that before my workout sometimes I didn't because first thing in the morning I have to a)take levothyroxine on a empty stomach and wait a hour before taking any other meds or supplements and b) am taking folate tabs along with the rest of my meds which I can take together but the folate also is a empty stomach thing so I have to wait a hour in between that and the levo. Add in I am thirsty in the morning and tea and levo also need a hour spacing and it became a timing thing more than anything else. I'm taking folate because during a month stint of carnivore behind digestive issues where I was eating loads of red meat and folate rich organs like beef kidney I tested deficient in folate and i have a history of anemia so i went the suppliment route to course correct myself.
    If you want to not workout fasted maybe trying something like that could work. Also shifting to a 12:12 routine and doing a protein shake/smoothie before your workout could work as another option.

    What if you have your breakfast early and still workout with your husband in the morning? What if you make your dinner earlier, like by 6pm? That way, you're still fasting like 12 hours from after dinner till morning? I give you a lot of credit for overcoming the fear of giving up IF. I think sometimes too for women and our changing bodies IF isn't great for our hormones.

    • @laceybaier_
      @laceybaier_  Місяць тому

      I considered those options, but ultimately, this is what worked best. I'd have to wake up at 5 to have breakfast, based on our schedule, and it wasn't worth it to either my husband or myself. I appreciate you trying to help :)

    My friend, please look into Carnivore. I think 🤔 that it is EXACTLY what you need! (It will give you all of the protein that you need to build muscle, and it will eliminate all of the bloating/digestive issues.). Either way, obtaining information won't hurt! Wishing you all the best! 😘
    ( I don't remember whether you're vegetarian or not, but if you are, then increase your egg🥚intake, and remove grains from your diet -- at least try it.)

    • @laceybaier_

      We tend to do bulk meal prep and then grab pieces to create faster meals for individuals. So I'll prep chick pea pasta, ground turkey, and marinara sauce, and then we can custom our meals for the week that way, but not everyone has the exact same thing.
