It took me long enough to get used to eating every 3 to 4 hours. Now this?

Come on nutritionists, where was this theory when I was in high school and would randomly go for two days without eating ...

PS: eating every 3 to 4 hours has brought the biggest gains to my leanness of everything I've tried. Even better than running every day.

There is no contradiction between eating every 3-4 hours and intermittent fasting. They occur on different time scales, you're going to be ok.

The big thing about intermittent fasting is that the rest of your diet has to be 'normal' as well. If you were like me in highschool, my 'intermittent' fasts were broken by... not optimal food choices.
