I semi gave up a year back, but I did a lot of self reflection on my eating after trying IF. I skip breakfast and run 6 km a few times a week, but I eat for a timetable without feeling hunger pangs for weeks at a time. Now I eat less calories and allow myself to be hungry.
Another beautiful side benefit of regular fasting: you can skip meals when necessary, while traveling, for example without really any negative effect. It seems small, but compare that to people who absolutely fall apart if they haven't ingested carbs in the last 2 hours... it's a powerful adapation.
