Diana, thanks for sharing your conversation with Dr. K. I'm finding the side conversation on IF interesting as well.
I've spent the previous 3 months doing IF from 8pm-12pm and strangely it helped my blood sugar quite a bit but I also felt really good doing it. I've recently gone back to having a morning protein shake because my protein levels are in a range I'm not happy with. I wasn't able to eat enough protein during my 8 hour window of time as I was only eating two meals a day.
One major thing it did for me was bring my body out of it's holding pattern related to my weight. I have been hovering closer to the high end of my preferred weight and could not get it back down where I wanted until I started to IF and it dropped into the lower end of my range and has stayed--even after going back to 'normal' eating.
That all said, IF is very person dependent, particularly with females.
