Fat Loss Tip #17: After you have been eating, sleeping, and training correctly for a few months, and if your stress is well managed, you might try reducing your eating window without reducing calories. Some call this Intermittent Fasting, but I prefer to be less technical and just call it skipping breakfast. There is plenty of great research to support this recommendation, but too many people jump in with both feet before they have the metabolic health to support it. The result is sometimes more midsection fat, erratic energy levels, broken sleep, and all the other stuff that might come with too much stress. Also, those who don’t know better often end up with calorie restriction to go along with their shorter eating window. So, be sure you don’t reduce calories, but rather move your average calories into less time each day. I like 8 hour windows that look something like 11:00 AM to 7:00 PM. Again, and I can’t stress this enough, if you aren’t already well on your way to great health, this advice isn’t for you.
