For the past few days I've been trying out a new eating schedule so that I don't eat after 4 PM. Previously I was trying to limit my calories to 1500 daily, but was finding that mid-mornings and mid-afternoons I was getting sluggish and shaky.
Since ending my eating at 4, I have been eating more earlier in the day. The plus has been a spike in energy during the day, no more sluggishness and shakiness, and (amazingly) more energy in the evening. The negative has been that I am no longer able to eat when my family eats at dinner.
Has anyone else tried this kind of eating schedule? Has it worked on a long-term basis? What are your thoughts? I'd love to hear ideas!
