Have you tried intermittent fasting?

I am a big fan of IF! I’ve been around 125 lbs most of my adult life until I hit my mid-thirties, when my metabolism slowed down. My weight inched up to the 130-135, and worse, my waistline expanded. I started trying IF about 6 months before the pandemic, but working from home during COVID made it so much easier for me to do it consistently. I am not a stickler about it at all, but try to delay eating breakfast until 11, and try to have dinner before 7, and not eat anything after 8 - so basically 15 hours of not eating. I am still eating 3 meals/day, and still feel I am consuming about the same amount of calories other than eliminating the after-after-dinner snacking. I’ve lost 10-15 lbs and have been able to consistently keep it off. Best yet, is the shrinkage in my waistline. IF is the only type of dieting I could ever imagine doing because I love food too much, and this doesn’t restrict how much I eat or what I eat.
