I intermittent fast on 6-8 hours of eating with 16 or more hours of fasting. I pretty much eat whatever I want during the eating window and drink water the fasting time. I can truly say I have never had my stomach growl. My stomach has shrunk quite a bit and I very much enjoy my schedule...it suits me just fine but I am early 70's and just don't need all that much food. There are several different IF schedules you can follow so maybe you need to try a few to find out which one suits you. Good luck...check out Dr. Berg on IF schedules.
