16/8 IF

Take Baby Steps – HOW TO START

Like with most other things of value and importance in life, intermittent fasting requires intelligence. If you start head on, without preparing your mind that is, it will be difficult to fast even for a few hours. Convince your brain that this is really happening, by being 100% determined to complete what you’re about to do.
The first few times is always a bit more tricky than what it it will be when you get used to it down the road. Your brain and body will play along in time. Also, the first few hours, maybe the first half, of your fasting is always more difficult than the last half. Stay strong and you’ll reap the rewards after it’s over.
Doing intermittent fasting require steady intake of water. I keep a bottle with me all the time, and have a few cups of green tea during my fasts. You can chew gum, have a mint or drink coffee as well, but make sure to not eat or drink anything with lots of calories like sodas or cappuccino.
