IF is tricky if you're not in the right mindset. For some people it can lead to bingeing because it can feel like a form of restricting. It's very important to keep a clean mindset during the fasting times. To not obsess about food or not allow yourself to feel emotionally deprived.

Thank u anna n kir for replying.

I tried various types of IF but they didn't suit me.
So I m using tried n tested method of eating 3 major meals n 2 snacks a day n restricting total calories in day by replacing calorie dense items with low calorie items and sm dancing/ exercising with overall calorie intake between 1200 to 1400 cal per day.
