Told my kids I would take them swimming this afternoon as well.

I personally work with people in construction and demolition who look like they are on their last leg. Brother I work in the Florida HOT, and when I come home I exercise. You can load a truck with 90 lb bags of Portland cement, and still be out of shape. But when you exercise regularly you have the endurance to load the truck with 90 lb bags.

The inttermitant fasting, for me means a good breakfast and good but somewhat earlier supper. I simply skip lunch and drink lots of water and no snacks (except for maybe eating a little out of the peanut butter jar). I am consuming probably close to the same amount of calories, but just getting it from better foods and in 2 meals.

The bathroom is what is concerning. Again not trying to be gross, but I have gone from being daily to maybe 1-2 times a week. I am drinking a lot of water and am passing a lot of waste by urine. I am just a little concerned why so little stool. I don't think it is constipation because I'm not passing rocks, but I just don't know what is going on my body.

If you look like a skinny puppy passing peach pits, then your diet is out of whack. Balance and moderation, you should be drinking ph tested water all day until bed time. Carbs and proteins.
