14-Day Intermittent Fasting Meal Plan: Day 10

Intermittent fasting is currently on the rise as one of the most popular nutrition and fitness trends. This type of diet, or better said, eating pattern, focuses on when instead of what you eat, by splitting the day or week into eating and fasting cycles.  Our meal plan is for intermittent fasting 16/8, which consists of eating within an 8-hour timeframe and abstain for the following 16 hours.

Another day of fantastic fuel for your body to push through that fasting period to come, starting with a balanced breakfast. Avocado, egg and whole grains ensure enough healthy fat, fiber and protein to make it through the morning. To lend a helping hand you also have two robust snacks to rely on, including a fruit and yogurt bowl as well as a sweet and creamy concoction in the afternoon. A lean Mediterranean style dinner rounds things out, featuring Israeli couscous, roasted chicken and veggies.
