fasting is a wonderful thing. it makes you realize how much you miss about eating normally. i have found it useful to fast once a month or twice a month instead of regulating myself everyday.
the everyday regulation does not sit well with a sedentary lifestyle. if you are on the move for 14 hours a day then it makes great sense and the body adjusts automatically by expecting less.
your statistics prove that the digestive system needs periodic rest like the remaining parts of the body. all the best and hope it improves your life dramatically
Thanks for your comment. Yea, I think lifestyle has a great influence on what kind of diet and eating strategy is best for an individual. Most of my day is spent at a desk, which makes it easy to have a 16/8 eating pattern.
