FWIW Ive been experimenting all week with essentially skipping breakfast. Usually I'd eat around 07:30 and again at 10:00 but all this week my first meal has been at 10:00.
What Ive noticed that is weird is that Im not wanting to eat later at night. Im usually bad for eating too close to going to bed but Ive not been nearly as hungry at this time. Might just be a coincidence or stress..... dunno but I'll fire on the scales on saturday and have a looksee.

Ive stuck to eating the same foods as usual but obviously there has been less of them. Going by what Ive always thought my metabolism should have slowed because of the not eating til 10 thing and I should have went into starvation mode.
science is fun

Are you consuming any caffeine during this time?

Do you still have those green tea extract capsules?

[Scott]

I'll have 2 coffees in the morning between 7 - 8 and then thats it until about 7pm and Im still on the 1000mg green tea caps at 2 per day which I take in the mornings a couple hours apart.

Caffeine initiates an insulin response via adrenaline in a fight or flight mode.

Also the breakdown products of caffeine tend to increase insulin levels (Sears 1995), which is not good

adrenaline works in many different areas and its nothing like F or F

Adrenaline is released due to low blood sugar levels like waking up in the middle of the night wide awake where adrenaline has kicked in to shift sugar/glycogen. Which in turn sets off an insulin surge to cope with the sugar now in the blood stream or what is going to come into the blood stream via eating, midnight binge.
