Maybe in my body, it can't convert it fast enough, or something, for what
I do.
Last I had it checked, my base metabolic rate was 1600 calories.
Our household is on the go from 6:30 am til 9:00 pm, with late night tow
truck calls, livestock chores, and outside activities, not to add in
stress components. So I just know I have days when I just can't go
anymore, unless I eat outside the fast. Not sure why, I just know if I
sit down in a chair at 3:00 in the afternoon, and don't have the gumption
to get up and going, I have 5 hours of the day wasting, and that doesn't
work here.
The IF (7 hr window) worked easily for about 2 months. Then I had to
adjust eating because of lack of energy. Not saying anyone else might
run into this----I have.
