I did the 16/8 intermittent fasting to a T. Now, my eating schedule is crap again. Whoopsie. That's anxiety for you!

Here's a PDF. I didn't start it until my doctor recommended it. My BMI was 31 due to insulin resistance and thyroid problems. So, my doctor monitored my intermittent fasting for 1 full year, every week via email communication and occasional in-person appointments. MY BMI is now 25.

I didn't even exercise that much, save for walking a lot, using my inhaler all the time. I really stayed away from processed food for that entire year which was really difficult, but I also have NALFD so I am not supposed to eat processed food so that I can reverse it. But I'll say the past 7 months have been processed food-topia due to my life stressors. And I can see it on my skin, feel it in my digestive system, and it even affects my mood and what I dream about.

I need to do it again. No excuses.

If you start intermittent fasting, I urge you to talk to your doctor first and use a chart printed out, so you can follow it to a T. Come up with a time-frame with your doctor, and your goal weight and come up with a realistic set of meal plans.
