Newfound joy in intermittent fasting: Last month I went to Cabo San Lucas, MX. As soon as I arrived I took a taxi to get some healthy food at an organic grocery store in Cabo to enable me to prepare organic smoothies from my kitchen and stick with my clean eating routine to feel my best while in Mexico, continuing to make my abstinence from sugar my top priority. I worked out on the beach, hiked, worked out in the gym daily and for the first time succeeded in actually enjoying eating nothing past 5:00 several nights. I loved going to bed on an empty stomach and waking up without feeling the least bit hungry. Most of my adult life I spent saving my calories per day to enjoy dinner as my main meal, but now I prefer light dinners to a heavy one any night of the week because of how good it makes me feel the next day. I enjoy eating my main meal as a late lunch to skip dinner altogether or only sip bone broth or soup at night or have a decaf bulletproof coffee or sugar-free hot chocolate mixed with soymilk, unsweetened cocoa and Vital Proteins Collagen Peptides. Feeling so great on this new routine of intermittent fasting from time to time at night!
