Intermittent Fasting What I Eat in a Day | Holiday Edition

 

Welcome to a new Intermittent Fasting What I Eat in a Day video that has a distinct holiday theme. As usual, I am sharing two days of meals. Intermittent fasting is not about what you eat, but when you eat. I do the 16:8 method, which means I fast for 16 hours and have an 8 hour eating window.

If you are interested in trying intermittent fasting, please consult your doctor first. This video and blog post are meant for entertainment purposes only and are not intended to give nutritional advice.

Please note: I have my first coffee at 7:00 a.m. each morning with around 2 teaspoons of heavy cream. When I was in my weight loss phase and wanted to lose weight, I had this coffee "black" with no cream. Now that I am no longer interested in losing weight, I have added cream back to my coffee in the morning. 

Day One

Breakfast 9:00 a.m. For breakfast I had cottage cheese with flax seed, chia seed, blueberries, and walnuts. 

I had my first coffee at 7:00 a.m. with a splash of heavy cream. This is the Daily Connoisseur coffee mug. Isn't it pretty? 

Luncheon is at noon. We had Thanksgiving leftovers today as I filmed this the day after Thanksgiving. 

Teatime is around 2:00 p.m. I had apple pie and Pique Tea's ginger digestion elixir tea  DAILYC for 5% off. The dishes are Spode Christmas Tree. I am reading Women Who Run with the Wolves.

Dinner 5:00 p.m. We're having miso-glazed black cod (from Costco) on top of sautéed spinach. There will be no eating after dinner... only water and perhaps an herbal tea. 

Day 2

Breakfast 9:00 a.m. I'm having poached egg on avocado toast seasoned with salt and everything but the bagel seasoning along with a handful of blueberries. I'm breakfasting off the Spode Blue Italian dishes and having the rest of my morning coffee. 

Luncheon 2:00 p.m. Today for lunch I'm having butter chicken over hot rice with a side of homemade creamed spinach and some garlic naan with melted butter. I ate 3/4 of this meal. 

Teatime 2:00 p.m. Today I enjoyed homemade fudge (I won't leave the recipe as it didn't turn out too well...) along with the Ginger Digestion Elixir from Pique Tea DAILYC for 5% off. 

Dinner 5:00 p.m. After a day of heavy meals, I wanted something light and small so for dinner tonight it's spinach quesadillas with Monterrey Jack cheese, homemade guacamole and a side of steamed corn. There will be no more eating after dinner... only water and perhaps an herbal tea.

Comment of the Week

Cindy K. writes, "You inspired me last year to wrap my gifts with craft paper and oranges, etc. It is a beautiful idea and makes a stunning Christmas gift that smells delicious. I thank you for this wonderful idea and this year I have already dehydrated my oranges and limes. Wishing you and yours a lovely holiday season."

Hi Cindy, I'm so glad you embraced the brown paper packages tied up with string! I love wrapping presents this way and believe they make a beautiful gift presentation. Thank you!
