Time-restricted eating (TRE) has been gaining serious momentum since Michael Moseley's documentary on the subject was aired by the BBC in 2013. TRE is not a diet; it isn't about counting calories or even completely cutting out certain food groups. It is a way of scheduling your eating to maximize fat loss while still enjoying delicious food.

It works like this: You pick an eating window for the day, usually anywhere from four to eight hours, and eat all your meals within that period. After closing up shop at the end of the day, you don't allow yourself anything else to eat for the rest of the day. Some people choose to fast through breakfast, but this is not required with TRE.

Many proponents of TRE are surprised that their fat loss increases when they stop obsessing over what to eat all the time. They also experience an increase in energy during their daily workouts and throughout the day, as well as better sleep. As a bonus, eating frequently throughout the day keeps you fuller for longer since your body is constantly digesting food.

It can be hard to adjust to this new way of eating at first, but it doesn't take long to get into a rhythm, especially when you have a meal plan and recipes ready to go! In this guide, you will learn how to eat in a window of time that works for you, and how to make sure your workouts are as effective as possible.
