14-Day Intermittent Fasting Meal Plan: Day 11

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.
