Diet

Intermittent fasting helps me feel better and it keeps my clothes from getting too tight.  So I eat before 5pm and then don't have anything again until late morning.  This provides the body with some rest.  My colleague likes fasting for days, but I have never tried it.  She swears it makes her feel great! 

I started a modified keto diet a few years ago.  Not to lose weight but to feel better.  Initially I cut out all sugar and carbs.  Went full out keto.  I lost too much weight but didn't miss the sugar or carbs.  I learned a whole new way of eating.  My joints didn't ache, I was sleeping better, my thinking was more clear.  I now eat mainly extremely low carb and very low sugar for the most part however I am not against the occasional cookie or bowl of ice cream.  It works for me and I have kept the weight off.  I still feel terrific and have more energy now than I did 20 years ago.
