Keep in mind IF is not creating any deficit. Its not restricting calories ...just compressing the eating 'window'. The idea of eating every 2-3 hours is bullshit. Man wasn't designed to eat like that. We were built to go extended periods of time without food. I used to eat 6 times a day (Clean) like 'you're told to do' and I never touched single digit body fat. Each time your eat you release cortisol. This stores fat. Your cortisol levels are the highest in the morning and tapers down during the day. IF simply moves your first meal forward to let the cortisol levels drop. You can fast for 16 hours... your metabolism will not fall and you will not tear down muscle, and you will not be a zombie until you break your fast.
