Hi, I’m on day 1 of this new lifestyle and of course I’m going in boots and all and fasting. I’ve downloaded a calorie counting App called Fat Secret to keep track of my allowance on fast days. Today I decided to skip breakfast and I’ve just had a small lunch. I’ll have a small dinner early tonight and see how I go. I must say that having the thought in the back of my mind that I don’t have to do this tomorrow is fantastic! I feel very liberated, almost naughty thinking I’ll have that tomorrow instead! Brilliant! Anyhow, I’ve got a long road ahead, with around 25kgs to lose, but I’m allowing myself 18months to achieve that goal and if it’s quicker that will be a bonus. I’m really looking forward to connecting with others on the same path and seeing positive changes in my health and energy levels. Onwards and upwards, or downwards in this case!

Thank you, Incredibly helpful

Thank you, feeling good after my first fast day. Another fast tomorrow, an unavoidable work lunch ‘aldesko’ so that’s when I’ll eat. Weighed myself about 11 times 😂 because I can’t believe that after 1 fast it’s gone down 800gms! Anyway probably beginners luck but I’ll wait and see in a week.

Still going. Getting much better at fasting days, and having had only 1 snack today of 150 calories, I’m not feeling hungry at all. I’ve also had milk in my tea, so adding another 100 to be on the safe side. Not seeing much of a move on the scales, down a bit over a kg, but feeling good and motivated to keep going.
