I had planned to start today 8 Jul 2013, but I was not fully prepared; food-wise, mentally and emotionally. So the inherent flexibility of the FastDiet allows me to be better prepared. Thus Tuesday becomes the first day this week. I had previously done a 5:2 about a month ago, but due to too many distracting events, I postponed re-starting.
That one week I did FastDiet, I felt I would be able to do this and more importantly, this is sustainable and manageable.

More to come.

I weighted myself today and lost 3.5 lbs. During my second fast day, Friday, early in the afternoon if one would have asked me if I was going to be able to do this I would have said no. I have a lovely summer cold, rhino virus thingy and I was not feeling great to begin with. But I pushed through and did not break my fast. I reminded myself that the next day all would be back to “normal”. I thought after Friday that yes I can really do this. With week 2 in progress I look forward to seeing what will unfold for me.
