Last night was ROUGH. My husband and I have been doing at least 16:8 everyday for the last couple weeks. The first week was hard for me because I like late night snacks but I've been sticking to my eating window of 10am-6pm pretty easily. We have a 2 month old daughter and last night she fussed for 2 hours while I was trying to put her down for bed. I was rocking her and she'd fall asleep for 10 minutes and then wake up fighting going back to sleep for 25+ minutes. And the cycle went on. Every single time she woke up crying I thought, "I want something to eat". And I really realized what an unhealthy relationship I've had with food for the last 15+ years. I wasn't hungry and I was hydrated, but because I was upset I wanted something to eat. And as I looked back on the years it really came into view how each time something major in my life would happen, I would gain 20-40 lbs and then hover at that weight for a couple years until the next major thing happened. I'm so glad I'm not only consciously making the effort to be better, but I've really come to see my unhealthy relationship with food for what it is. IF is doing great things for us and I'm happy knowing I can stick with it with ease from here on out because of my epiphany. I love all the subs that keep me motivated with advice and before and after pics and I can't wait to share mine once I get to my goal. I am 100% confident I've taken my last "before" picture you guys. And it feels good!
