I thought I’d try something different after being on program for about 2 months and losing 5 lbs of winter weight. Now at goal, I wanted to try the 2-to-2 plan with a little modification 12:30-to-12:30 and I LOVE it! I found that fasting from lunch to lunch was great. Neither more difficult or easier, just different and change is good. I will do dinner to dinner fast on Sunday, my next fasting day. I’ll have dinner out with my husband on Sat evening and then fast until we have dinner together on Sunday evening. I keep busy during the day so fasting this way should be very comfortable. I think that I will do what works for me based on my job. I’m in sales and having so many options works well with my job and entertaining clients and prospects, usually over breakfast, lunch, or dinner. I can fast based on my schedule for the upcoming week. This program does not get in the way of my life and I’m finding that being able to eat as I please 5 days per week is extraordinarily liberating after years of Weight Watchers and low-carb dieting. Enjoying crackers without guilt, and a slice of cheesecake for dessert last night, was something I haven’t done for YEARS. I might have had a small piece of cheesecake because that’s what I allowed myself and then felt guilty about it. Now: I have a slice of cheesecake and it’s the size I choose, not huge, because that’s the size I WANT. Very liberating. Thank you so much. If you need a cheerleader, here I am!
