Is Intermittent Fasting Safe And Effective For Weight Loss?

My doctor has me on a low carb, high fat diet (LCHF). I am not losing weight as fast as I would like, so she suggested intermittent fasting, eating during an 8 hr period while fasting for 16. I would like to hear your suggestions for dropping weight safely. I am not sold on the idea of heavy cream and full fat cheese, etc. Thank you.

my suggestion is always use frequent small healthy snacks in between meals ( including more salads). always keep maintaining blood glucose in steady level. not fluctuating too much this works for majority. obviously with more pinch of physical activity
