I wish I could buddy with you but I’m in the US 🙁

Hi I’m starting my fast diet tomorrow I done a four day fast diet last week and lost 5lbs….y boyfriend left today to travel around America for 3 weeks I want to lose a stone before he gets back…. I choose to do just the water diet not the 5.2 on my four day diet I just really wanted to see if it was difficult or if I became ill Otherwise i wouldn’t carry on … I did become a bit cranky so iv decided to do it while he is away. .. iv checked in with my doctor and have all the relevant vitamins supplements…. last week I felt so good like my body had rebooted itself my skin became very clear only real bad side is the bad breath ……. iv realised that my body didn’t become Hungary just craved certain things …. I felt like I had control over my health rather than the cookie jar controlling me
…anyway good luck everyone xzx

Had rebooted it’s self …

Hello ladies,

I’m in the UK too, 38, fasting Mondays and Wednesdays. I started this Monday so second fast day today, this is a return to the fast diet for me, I did it for a while last year, it was working just fine so I have no idea why I stopped!

Good luck all 🙂

Takes a few to get into again doesn’t it Dragonfly? 🙂

Hello

I’m also in the UK, Watford in fact! I’m 34 and currently have two fasts under my belt. Next one is scheduled for tomorrow and although I cope quite well with the hunger, not looking forward to it. Once I’ve started the day though, sure I’ll be fine.

I’m good at not eating for long periods of time, i.e. I generally don’t eat breakfast. So I’ve decided to just have an evening meal and nothing for breakfast and lunch. I do it while at work (office job working by myself, so no distractions and if I don’t bring food in, there’s nothing to eat!).

Could the people who is back on the diet explain to me why they stopped, as I am thinking this will be a life change for me, I intend to do it for as long as I can at least the 6:1. But I would like to hear what makes you stop to see if I I can plan a good strategy.

I feel that I loose weight and it goes well for a while and then I put on a lot of weight again, so I really need a life changing method.

Any suggestions?

Hi juli,
I hadn’t been doing it for long but my strategy for sticking to it long term is that if I have a glass of hot water and. Slice of lemon in the mornings when I wake up I don’t feel hungry and don’t eat until 1pm. Then I see how the afternoon pans out. If I am hungry I have dinner, a dessert and a glass of wine. If not I make up my 500 kcals and have a really healthy dinner and turn it into a fast day. This way of working means no pressure. If I’m hungry I eat but because I don’t start till 1pm I still lose weight. Hope this helps. It’s working for me so far and I’m steadily losing.
