@nicole. Really???? 16 hours is tough?? 1 in 7 people don’t have enough to eat and you cant go 16 hours. Buck up little soldier, its not that hard. Good luck with that diet you have in the link. Im sure it will make your wallet a lot lighter. Get back to us and tell us how it went.
Nicole, a Fast day doesn’t have to mean no-eating-at-all. On the 5:2 Diet, you could eat anywhere from 500-800 calories/day, as long as they are high-quality calories. I’ve been eating 600-700 calories/day for 2 days each week for the past 5 years and have lost all the weight I needed to and then some more. This is very do-able. Did you read the Fast Diet Book to see how to approach it? Might help.
@fasting_me. I suspect Nicole is not genuine but just another “poster” that tries to direct people to other websites. They are usually pretty easy to spot. Hence me coming in rather like a bulldozer.
Are you a diabetic on various drug treatments? How did the nurse arrive at the conclusion that you were hypoglycaemic? Did you have bloods taken? If this is an ongoing situation I would seriously seek professional medical advice. Your liver & pancreas are not functioning as they should. Purchase a blood glucose meter, they are very cheap (about $50). Test your blood glucose levels while fasting several times a day if you have genuine concerns. You can even purchase systems that monitor your blood glucose 24/7 and you can get a reading sent to your phone (even set up an alarm if it goes low).
Nicole, I’d get a second opinion about your blood sugar, in addition to that off-hand remark by a nurse. Then you’ll know for sure and can address the situation as needed. In any rate, Fasting is not off-limits to people with blood sugar issues, as shown in Dr Mosley’s newest book on The Blood Sugar Diet.
