Tip for newbies regarding menstruation

Purely anecdotal but if anyone finds themselves in the same mental space as me, it might help to have this info.I’ve been doing 16:8 since Feb 1. No other changes to diet. I initially felt some slow progress in the mirror but lately felt I looked the same as in the beginning. I started to feel discouraged and had thoughts of quitting because it’s pointless. Then my period came and I realized I was really bloated and emotional.So stick it out through that time of month! Take a break from IF during that time if your body is asking for it. But don’t give up if you think you’re not making progress. It could be that you’re just bloated and feeling pessimistic! via /r/intermittentfasting https://ift.tt/X3Ngq4h https://ift.tt/BX3yoe2
