Like a lot of us, I am working from home and tied to a desk. In the interest of not having to break my front door to get out, I have started intermittent fasting
I am using the app, fastic. Anyone here already using? Any feedback or advice will be great  |

"What does the app do? "
It took my weight information, target, etc and created a plan to loose weight. I am fasting 16 hours a day since Monday. It has been good as I tend to snack a lot. I am now waking up with more energy |

What times do you stick to? Like 11am to 7pm?
Sorry you asked for help but you're the one helping me.  |

Black tea?  
You are inspiring me to give it a try. But not the tea. |

I do Indian tea with little milk in the mornings and green tea later in the day (without milk). But comparatively, I am doing much better. Not having junk food/snacks is a buzz kill, but the cravings disappeared after the first two days. I am reasonably comfy with the schedule last 5 days or so. |

I need junk food in lockdown. I'm hiring a crane to get me out of the house at Easter.  |

Just an update (want to say it out loud). I have lost 1.5 kilos with 10 days of using the app (I couldn’t do every day in the last 2 weeks).
This is good result as I am tied to my desk 8 am to 7 pm most days. |

"I'm not using any kind of app but I'm currently doing a 20 hour fast a few times a week. Trying to shift this last stubborn half a stone is tough. "
I can imagine. I have gained three-quarters in the last 6 months. I will be a happy bunny if I loose a stone in total
20 hours is hardcore - I use the app for the alerts and timekeeping, it helps as I sit in mind numbing conf calls sometimes |

The first few stone were easy but now it's so damn difficult.
I built myself up to it. I started off skipping breakfast then started pushing lunch back. Now I have a 170kcal protein yoghurt about 4pm so I don't ruin my appetite for dinner. It got easier over time and my level of hunger has reduced overall. |

How long did it take to build up to it? I started only recently and have had 10 days in a row now after a few false starts.
