After reading 100+ quit stories I built a free tool that fits intermittent fasting to your everyday life. Would love your feedback.

https://ift.tt/e678gBA I was starting IF, a lot of the advice I could find didn't pay much attention to the lifestyle habits we have, like exercising, going to social dinners with friends, or going through a transition in life where the whole day's schedule can become quite messy. Moreover, I saw many of my friends (who initially inspired me to do IF) quitting IF in the long run.Curious as to why this happens, I analyzed over 100 quit stories and talked to people who gave up on IF. The expected stuff came up (hunger, willpower), but the biggest pattern was actually lifestyle fit. People weren’t failing because they lacked discipline; their fasting routine was simply clashing with their work, training, or social life until it became too strict to maintain. So a lot of failed fasting felt like a scheduling problem rather than a willpower problem and that's when I got this idea. After taking into account all of the testimonials from the people I knew personally who were doing fasting, my own experiences, and systematically analyzing hundreds of testimonials across r/intermittentfasting, r/fasting, and r/omad on quitting fasting, achieved results, and success stories, I built a free tool that gives you a fasting recommendation personalized to your lifestyle. You answer a few questions about your routine, hunger timing, workouts, social eating, and past experience, and it suggests a fasting rhythm that fits those instead of a one size window and helps you track your progress. I started with men, since the reasons men and women quit tend to differ and most tools ignore that. And for women, the fasting recommendation would need to take into account additional parameters related to their cycle. You can find the tool here.(Free, no email, no signup. Just wanted to share something I found useful and built for myself. And I would appreciate your feedback on it.) A quick note, this is based on qualitative community experiences and patterns, not medical advice. But I am really curious to hear about your experiences. If you have quit IF at some point, what were your reasons, especially if they were related to the incompatibility of IF with your lifestyle? And if you went back to it, what was the trigger that motivated you to do so? via /r/intermittentfasting https://ift.tt/DRfQpa4 https://ift.tt/OKHvGFQ
