IF actually helps me AVOID awkward food/diet conversations.

My family is mostly obese. I was overweight for several years but always considered the “skinnier” one and “just fine”. Recently I lost weight and am back in a healthy BMI. This can make my family uncomfortable, especially when I “diet” in front of them. They think it’s obsessive and inappropriate because I am with family and I should just enjoy myself. IF helps me balance both. My family came to visit today. I ate all the food I wanted to. Didn’t talk about my diet and they didn’t bring it up. I feel a little gross because I ate more than I usually do but I have zero stress or guilt. It was a planned splurge. I plan to do a 2 day fast starting tomorrow to reset. No harm no foul and best of all, my eating choices remain my business and they won’t be faced with the “need” to comment on my diet choices. via /r/intermittentfasting https://ift.tt/3sXINKK https://ift.tt/eA8V8J
