Weinandy said results are usually apparent around the 10-week mark, adding that she sees an average weight loss of seven to 10 pounds over that period through any of the three approaches to IF mentioned previously.
It might take longer than that since everyone's metabolism works differently. "I tell people who make any diet change to give themselves one to two months," Weinandy said. On the other hand, "if you're losing weight too quickly, you're doing it wrong." In that case, you should re-evaluate your calorie intake.
Our experts say studies are inconclusive so far, but because you're eating healthier and fewer calories, the method could have an impact beyond the scale and on your overall health, including your cholesterol, triglycerides, and blood sugar levels.
