I agree. I follow a stricter eating window of 23/1 where I eat all my calories in about 1 hour. The benefit of keto is you do not have sugar crashes, and if you are careful with caffeine you can eliminate those crashes as well. A constant supply of energy is wonderful. I also lift weight at the end of the fasting window, before I eat, and have not experienced any issues. I have been keto for a few years though, so I'm very keto adapted. My carb intake is less than 5g per day (I don't eat plants).

The 23/1 window seemed a bit extreme to me, until i realized that, on some days, i manage to eat just one meal… Do you happen to have any useful sources/links on this? I've found something, but it seems to be pseudoscientific nonsense for the most part… Thanks!

I have a 4 hour window of eating my main meal. I usually eat 2 meals in that one setting, one of the meals being a keto protein shake (w/MCT oil). At work, however, I will keep some almonds or pistachios to snack on. I normally don't experience headaches or hunger and my energy supply is great throughout the day. While I can't say keto contributed to all of my weight loss, I will say it has been an extremely important factor of maintaining my weight and is my lifestyle choice. I would prefer bacon over bread any day.
