Didn’t work in my case. I could fast 16 - 18 hours a day without difficulty. But I made up for it in what I ate in the remaining. Always felt hungry and ate more than I should when not fasting. Still gained weight. Tried IF for months without losing weight, and actually gained a little.

Same. I toughed it out for almost 6 months because your body is supposed to adjust but mine never did. I was doing 12-8 and some days I was so hungry I would start getting blurry vision by 11am. Didn't lose an ounce either.

It’s fascinating how different peoples’ bodies are. Maybe try a slight variation? My father in law has been restricting his food intake to 600 calories per day a few days a week for years, and it’s done wonders for him. The exact numbers might not matter; 700 calories twice a week may be better for you, for example. I’m just thinking this might be good for you if you need some constant (but low) calorie intake.

36 hours was the key for me because you can’t make up for that the next day (eat at night and then nothing the next day until the following morning). If I stick to that once a week, I am good. Otherwise, not.
