I have been doing intermittent fasting off and on for some time now. As mentioned in my previous post, I am fascinated by the diet highlighted in the “Always Eat After 7 PM” book by Joel Marion.
Bestselling author, Joel Marion, is a fitness expert and nutritionist debunking the myths underlying traditional dieting and offers a simple, highly effective weight loss program.
The plan is focused on the kinds of foods you eat and when you eat them. Joel’s theory is that the timing of when we eat our meals and snacks throughout the day is incredibly important when it comes to losing weight and staying in shape.
In a recent interview with the Author, he was asked a couple of questions which I was also curious about:
Interviewer:
“How difficult is the Always Eat After 7 PM plan to follow?”
Joel:
“It’s not. And that’s exactly why I wrote the book. While any diet is never truly easy, it can be more enjoyable and much easier to adhere to when you understand how Always Eat After 7 pm works because it caters to our bodies natural instincts.”
Interviewer:
“What was the most surprising discovery when you were researching scientific data for the diet?”
Joel:
“That almost everything my college education and certifications taught me was NOT grounded in published scientific research.”
How eating after 7pm can work for me
I don’t usually have time to eat breakfast and to be perfectly honest, I’m usually too busy during the day to sit down and eat a big meal.
So naturally, telling me that I can eat after 7 pm and STILL lose weight is super appealing to me.
Along with this intuitive way of eating, I have been trying to drink more water. This diet encourages staying hydrated throughout the day. Something that is pretty convenient for me as well.
The book states:
“Water helps digest your food, expel wastes, regulate your temperature, protect your tissues, cushion your joints, and protect your spinal column, among many other vital functions. It is through water that hormones flow to the proper organs, that nutrients reach all cells, and that toxins are diluted and removed from the body.”
To make this process easier, I like to keep a jug of water next to me while I work daily. It helps me track how much water I’m drinking throughout the day.
