Intermittent fasting is a popular diet method, so "fasting intermittently" could refer to DIETING in general. Alternatively, this could be a cryptic clue where "intermittently" signals taking alternate letters of "fasting" — F_S_I_G — but that doesn't yield a clean word. DIETING fits as a synonym for the concept of fasting on and off.
