For years I have been eating only evening meal, so I fast between 22 and 24 hours. I started doing this because it was very convenient for me to do so. I did not know anything about possible health benefits doing it, I was actually afraid to do any research if I would find out that eating only once a day was very dangerous and bad for you, but it fitted so well with my lifestyle that I wanted to continue no matter what.
A side effect is that I never feel really hungry anymore, even if I have been fasting for more than 25 hours. Before I could eat at noon and a few hours later be extremely hungry again. I really enjoy my evening meal complete with dessert, but I don't feel that deep hunger, almost pain, anymore.
Most of the time I only drink while eating and this can be a problem, especially in the summer and on the days I jog, as I can become very confused after not drinking for so many hours. As long as I stay hydrated everything is great, so I need to become better at that.
