    it’s a mix of both. I have been doing intermittent fasting for 4-5 years now, i used to be able to lose my weight and maintain it at low -er level. my metabolism has perhaps slowed down and IF is no longer working on its own and I could no longer eat whatever the hell i bloody want. Perhaps try swimming, it’s like the only sports that doesn’t feel like Essesise imo.

    Also are you a woman? I’m asking because women can gain weight due to hormonal fluctuations so it’s natural? And if by fatter you mean appearance-wise, could be due to salt retention and what not - try cutting down sodium intake.

      Yeah I’m a woman. I hate my hormones so much because they’re been very weird lately. I’m not sure it’s appearance wise or not since I don’t have a scale here.

      I can’t do IF because a hungry stomach distracts me from my work

        hungry stomach isn’t a huge problem for me, but the fogginess does affect me when it comes to productivity work. If i want shit done i will still have brekkie lol.
