Delay Don't Deny about IF by Gin Stephens

I've been experimenting with intermittent fasting (IF) for about a year.  Based on how things went during the summer and fall when I was being more organized about when I was or wasn't eating, I plan to continue IF in assorted ways.  The most consistent change is that I don't eat breakfast when I'm home.  When traveling, if breakfast is available then it's still my favorite meal of the day.

The second book I read about was Delay, Don't Deny by Gin Stephens.  Her style is quite different from Dr. Fung, who she references often.  Stephens holds a Doctorate in Education for Gifted and Talented Education and a Master of Arts in Natural Sciences.  She's a teacher who recently retired after almost 30 years teaching in Georgia.  What I like about this small book is that the ideas are presented simply, but there are plenty of references including URLs for online sources.  There are stories from several people in an appendix that are from her Facebook support group.

After experimenting with different IF approaches, Stephens settled on One Meal A Day (OMAD) as the best fit for her.

Her second book was Feast Without Fear, which also includes links to supporting info.  Another place to find the links is on this book's website.  The links for Chapter 2 are about medical journal articles about autophagy.
