It is pretty simple really.
I skip breakfast.
And eat my first meal of the day somewhere between 1130am to noon eating a healthy lunch lots of veggies 3 sides and a protein at sandras health food cafe, every day. Then may have a nut or two to snack on before dinner or even a piece of cheese or both. have dinner at 5;30 or 6 or later but no later than 7;30pm.
So no snacking after dinner nor calories. I do have sugar free hard candies that have sugar alcohol in them to sweeten them. and are very satisfying and I drink a zevia soda at night with stevia sweetener which is made from a plant and is a diet drink that is safe to drink.
I also use the liquid sweetener called sweet leaf and use 2 half dropperfulls in the morning with my coffee. or even just plain water at night and heat it up.I like the sweetness. It is really sweet and satisfying! I used to use creamer too but have not in 6 weeks since starting this way of life. so 11:30 to 7:30 then nothing for 16 hours until the next day at 11:30-
It is working for me. I also follow a lowerish carb diet meals getting carbs from veggies...but sometimes I do have a bit of potato or quinoa, I might even have a mashed sweet potato at lunch. I eat chocolate every night and like the fudge pops, all before 7;30pm except for these hard candies. which don't effect your blood sugar.
hope this helps...
ask me anything.
