I've started a diet. Only eating during 5 hours a day. I did it tonight and it

feels great. One main meal and a snack. Water to drink. I think I can keep this up.

Breakfast only takes me 20 mins or so, lunch 30 if I'm at work, and dinner an hour at most.

To Intermittent Fasting!!! I PM'd you about this back in July. Hope it works as well for you as it does for me. It greatly simplifies your life. It gets easier too as time goes by. After awhile it is such a habit that if you eat outside your five hour window, it just feels wrong so you quickly go back to it.
