I’m writing on behalf of a female friend. Her ideal weight (BMI 25) is 70kg. She weighs 80 kg now.
She wants to IF daily by bringing her eating window from 12 noon to 6 pm. (18:6)
Let’s say she’s aiming to consume just enough protein to maintain adequate protein status. That’s anywhere 70 gm (1 gm per kg ideal body weight) and 105 gm (1.5 gm per kg ideal body weight)
She’ll probably be having 2 meals and no snacks, but could add a snack.
Won’t it be difficult for her to consume adequate protein? Have I got something wrong? Is there an IF protein-sparing effect that actually decreases the amount she requires to consume?
