hi and welcome to fast five. I've been a fast fiver for about two years and love it. I noticed replies were centered on your low/high sugar and not answering specific questions you had about your window. fast five is about eating during a five hour window and fasting for 19 hours. it's not only ok to set your own window but I think it's necessary to find a window that works for you or you won't be able to stick with it. my window is 11am to 5pm. that's a fast six lol. but it works for me. and if I have a dinner invite for a little later, I push my window to 12 or 1pm. do what works for you and you will be successful.

> I don't mind the hunger sensation, its easy to manage , with food I am like an alcoholic, one taste and I cant stop eating until at times its hard to breathe , or I have terrible indigestion. But I have strong willpower and can and will stick to my times.
> I probably would have been grossly obese due to my constant over eating but I do eat well, and rarely eat fast food.I try and grow a lot of my food .
