Hi all,

on 1st of August 2014 I have started a new way of eating – I call it WON = way of nutrition. I am female. In 2014 I was 51, 172 cm, 86 kg back then. I had started with food combining – buzz claim Slim in Sleep (SiS). This way I lost my first 10 kg combined with lots of sports mostly biking indoors and outdoors.

In November I was invited to a party. There a woman asked me about my weight-loss and told me about a friend of hers who is doing 5:2 fast days successfully. Had not heard about that method before and started doing some research. This sounded great to me and I did my very first FD in November 2014. Since then I have kept doing it regularly. No cheats, no skipping – which makes me very happy 🙂

My goal is 63 kg. Last weigh-in was on 25th of June 2015: 66 kg. I had many months of “no more results on scale” or even upward trend between February and June yet I lost fat at places you would not look really. Others had told me: “Wow, your arms are much thinner now!” My arms? I had not paid attention to my arms, really 😀

My blood results, taken in March, were good.

I like to encourage all women my age that it is doable to get back into shape beyond 50. My intention was an intrinsic one: I wanted to melt the person free that was hidden behind the fat cell wall. I felt those were stored external energies that do not really belong to me and my body. Gained from eating/drinking the wrong things for wrong reasons.

The ongoing success in just keeping FDs going is feeding a special hunger inside of myself: the hunger of self-efficacy.

Thanks for reading and always FFF!

😉 thanks so much, Diane, and another welcome here. I jump between your and my thread now.

I have just come back from weighing myself this morning after fasting yesterday and the scale printed a 65.9 kg. I could not resist to have a look before 1st of August… I do not have a scale at home myself. Guess it is better for me to only check my weight once or twice a month.

I am wishing you a wonder-ful time of letting go of those stored energies.

Do you like affirmations? I have a special sentence I speak out loud (or in my thoughts when in public) every time I eat. It helped me to stay focused, too.

Heya, has been a while 🙂

Today is my 326th water fast day (on the whole). 39 days left and I can happily say that I have been doing the ADF for full two years – YAY. And I am going to continue because it just feels so right for me. I am also still doing the 3 liters of water every day. ADF & water intake give me the feeling to be fitter than ever. Plus my regular sports, of course.

Right now I am in a personal challenge again: 1st of August 2017 is coming soon. I want to see whether I can lose some of my actual 66 kg until then. Again I am going without any alcohol or potatoe chips and too much sugar intake. So the challenge is worthwhile no matter whether there will be weight-loss or not.

I am wishing all of you a great summer with happy results – be it maintaining or losing.

May you all melt yourself free into the shape that is truly you.

Cheers
Mahalo
