This study is being done to better understand how time restricted eating (eating all food in an 8 hour window) can help a person receiving chemotherapy treatment for breast cancer, stages I-IV. The aim is to find out if time restricted is feasible and acceptable to individuals starting chemotherapy for breast cancer. We will test 3 different eating window options compared to a control group for 24 weeks.

Interventions
Participants assigned to this arm will follow the 8-h TRE protocol. Participants will consume food ad libitum (no calorie or food restrictions) during a self-selected 8-h eating window (beginning at 10:00 am, 11:00am, or 12:00 pm) and fasting for 16 hours daily. They will follow this same eating pattern for the length of the intervention. Calorie free drinks such as water, black coffee, and diet soda, are permitted during the fasting period. The eating window will allow for a typical breakfast/lunch/dinner eating pattern.
