I agree, and that's why I don't claim much significance for my experiment, which was both small (1 person) and brief. Now here's an idea... I found that I got the best BG results by eating some mostly fat meals (75% fat or better, almost no carb) during the day, then a "balanced" meal in the evening. The IF literature suggests that excellent results can be gotten from, well, eating every other day. But you said you're "not ready" for that, and frankly neither am I. But what if one tried "fat fasting" every other day? This would keep hunger at bay, to some extent, and the premise is that eating fat metabolically mimics fasting, so intermittent fat fasting (IFF) should in theory be metabolically very similar to IF. Time for another experiment? Todd Moody [log in to unmask]
