If I can smile a crooked smile
primarily for my reference:
going to stop the 14-16 hour fasting program i've been doing the vast majority of days for the last 6+ months [pausing sometimes for travel, or other social stuff]. read an article about wacky hormonal effects in female mice [not enough studies done on intermittent fasting with actual human women (corrected typo from fisting; that's a whole other situation :P mark's away this week, so i get to use his walking desk, and it's lead to more interesting typos, but overall i adore it, and would like one--but all the various bits are not cheap and take up space, so will not be in near future sadly)], and have noticed different things with regards to my hormones. not necessarily bad, and certainly i've been very happy with the fat loss, but going to at least for awhile switch to the eating small amounts throughout the entire day [continuing calorie counting, i tend to plateau without it].
have also been enjoying not having to think about anyone's dietary desires other than my own: protein and fruit for the most part, along with greens. i often am good about not eating whatever thing mark asks for [often pasta or cheese] about once a week, but sometimes i still fail. and definitely last week's lasagna lead me to think both of us are missing the cheese digesting buggies, and need to be doing more probiotics if we desire to still eat it sometimes. likely for the best regardless.
trying to stick to a good schedule while alone in house is not the easiest thing. and it is interesting what things you can easily make yourself do versus what things you let slide. priorities, i have them, but they may not be what i'd like them to be :P
