I see what you mean about the differences in the two programs, which is why I'll probably never do the ON one (it will just keep saying I need more veggies to get certain nutrients, and I can't eat a lot of veggies, as mentioned previously).
I've tried longer fasts before, and could never do them. Maybe once I was able to do a 36-hour fast. Intermittent fasting comes easily to me, but I still can only stick with a 18/6 window, no smaller an eating window. Partly this is because I have a husband to feed, too, and he simply doesn't understand my not eating and gets angry when I cook for him and I don't have anything. He says, Then don't cook anything for me. I'll get by. Yeah, with cookies and milk. Better that I cook for both of us.
My trigger is 93 in the app and 97 when done manually using the spreadsheet. Waking BG was 93 yesterday. At 11:30 I felt good and ready for lunch, tested BG, and it was 88. Good to go!
Lunch was 6 oz ham and 2 eggs fried in a bit of butter, a little over a cup of 2% Greek yogurt with 1 scoop of collagen. All protein, only a little fat.
At 6:15 pm (that's nearly 7 hours later) while dinner was cooking I tested BG again and it was 104. Technically, I shouldn't have eaten, but when you live with someone (hubby) and dinner is ready, dinner is ready. I went ahead and ate. 8 oz pork tenderloin, 2 cups spaghetti sauce with a bit of butter.
Sometimes I think my meter is wonky, though, like maybe not quite enough blood from the poke, or whatever.
