Always believed that breakfast kicked your metbolism out of night time shut-down mode back into full operating mode so skipping it actually means you're burning calories more slowly than you would had you eaten it?
Leangains seems to be the cheer-leader for this approach. How credible is he?
I'm a sceptic that intermittent fasting does anything other than force you be a bit more circumspect about what you eat
my weight is still subject to the same vagaries as ever depending on what and how much I eat, how much excercise I do etc.

Next is failing to find the eating style that fits your nutritional struggles at the moment. For example, if your main issue is that you mindlessly graze all day and eat at random times and adopt an intermittent fasting approach to fix this, you are likely setting yourself up for failure. Not because intermittent fasting is incapable of producing weight loss but rather in your specific case it is directly opposite of the mannerisms that are most embedded in your approach to eating right now. Instead, you would want to do IF if your issues revolved more on frequent large portion eating.

Where is this quote from? I don't quite follow. My biggest issue is in the evening: I start eating when I get home from work and find it hard to stop. Is this saying IF could exacerbate this? One way to find out I suppose.
