hi thinagain,
the beauty of this plan is we can fit it around our daily lives, not the other way around, do what ever works for you, i am doing 4:3 at the moment and have my cals in one meal in the evenings, saving some for my milk in cups of tea during the day, good luck and keep posting x

hi ninna, i do mondays, wednesdays and fridays, so i have the weekends free, i try to choose my work days as these are busy days for me, xx

Hi Fast for life, I am glad someone else has their cals in the evening as all the information seems to talk about eating your main meal at lunchtime and I work outside so that is impossible. I thought I was doing it wrong by waiting until the evening.

Hi Pally666, I started 3 weeks ago trying to spread the calories on fast days but most posts I have seen seem to be saying that people find it easier to fast all day and eat in the evening. Plus it effectively gives you a 24 complete fast period each time (dinner night before fast day to dinner fast day), which should be a good thing.

I honestly thought there was no way I could possily do that – but I can and I do and just fill up on water and fruit teas during the day. And it gets easier.

But you just need to find a way that works for you 🙂

Pally666 thats a really good loss, try not to worry to much about how much or how fast your losing weight for the first month, just give yourself time to adjust to this new way of eating. the weight loss will sort itself, it will be slow some weeks, but it does work and is maintainable for life xx

Hi anniew7, if you eat 3 times on a fast day when do you do your fasting?

To anniew7, I am doing what you are doing as I seem to need to space my 500 calories into three small meals. It seems to be working. I am 68 and this seems to be what I can do. Good for you–keep it up!!

Ann, Still doing the same old thing and still completely happy and satisfied with the plan and it’s results. I can tell that I am making progress by the way my clothes fit and by the way I feel about my body in general. I just feel that there is a bit less of me! I went on a 10 vacation to visit a daughter and fit in two fasts (which meant that I was missing at least one) but it seemed perfectly OK to do that. I think that having noticed some progress, and from a plan that doesn’t feel at all arduous, it makes me want to keep going and not give anything back.
I’ve been doing this long enough now that I’ve stopped counting how long it’s been because I think this is just the way I’ll eat from now on. Hope you’re doing well, too.

Mariao, Excellent! But I don’t know how you do two days in a row. I am just finishing a fast day today and the stretch from 2 to 7pm with only a carrot felt LONNNNNNNGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG. Once dinner is over I am fine and will try and wait a bit for breakfast tomorrow morning. I don’t think in terms of kilos but it sounds like a lot!!! Yes, I think what’s important is thinking of this as the way that I will live from now on. I am hoping for maybe a half pound a week and that would be fine because it’s more than I’d thought I could accomplish ever again!!!
