    Hi all, thanks for the responses and questions. Yes I have posted from time to time having been away for some years. I would log in and just read some of the posts to maintain my interest and post the odd comment or reply to a post. Brad27, I am a Union man, have never watched a League game, sadly. Today I decided to go a full 24 hrs water only from my 6.00pm dinner last night. Was at the gym for my light weights session around 2.00pm, quick sauna then home. I went Keto tonight at 6.00pm a full 24 hr window, an “English breakfast, 2 slices smoked bacon, 1 link Cumberland sausage, 2 eggs scrambled and 100 gms of chestnut mushrooms. Not sure of the Calorie or full protein count but very low carb. It only started to become a little uncomfortable around 4.00pm but I do feel full. Thats 3 continuous days plus last Thursday on my first week on the Fast blood sugar diet. Again not sure re Tomorrow, I usually meet up with a friend in a local cafe but we will see. Dinner another chicken or ham broth. Just staying positive reading Michaels books and on YT watching the likes of Jason Fung et al. Will get weighed tomorrow as my first week is up but I may move weigh day to a weekend. What day do you all usually have as your marker?

    When I do it always Monday and Thursday. I’m a very poor eater.I can’t stand soup or broth,hate cheese and ham. I have done 24 hour fasts and longer. When I have anything to eat I immediately want more. I am never satisfied with food. Can honestly say that I am full because I’m not. They’re is a medical condition for this according to what I have been told at MoreLife.Freezing today minus 6 at 6am not that I get up that early. Only for the toilet. So do you follow Gateshead couscous?

    Afternoon All…
    Very cold but a lovely walk. -6 overnight and we have -7 tonight.. I think it starts to improve then.
    Heating and bill going up nicely 😳

    Problem with my wet room shower it’s dripping… one person wouldn’t come out, then a friends hubby had a look and was uninterested. I was told you couldn’t get the part… gone to my local DIY shop, they have found me one and it’s on the way. They are exceptional..Hope it’s the right one. They have given me a list of local plumbers to, marking the ones who do small jobs.🤞🏻

    I weighed this morning I am still 3 lbs up quite surprisingly.. I really must get back to fasting..

    Dave..
    Hope the 8 lbs moves quick. It’s ok having holidays and Christmas I do think it upsets our rhythm.

    Hedgehog..
    I have been out driving for some shopping and sorting my shower out. It wasn’t too bad. A big too sunny I put my sun hat on, it was very bright.
    Hope you don’t get the plumbers cold…

    Conscus..
    I liked looking on UTube for Jason Fung, one or two others it really makes you think..Dr Robert Lustig, about sugar was most interesting about T1 and T2 .. I don’t know if you have come across him.

    Evening!
    Couscous – wow, you have done really well with your first week! I’ve done extended fasts but not just water, couldn’t face one without tea & coffee! Enjoy your meal out tomorrow if you have one, & hope the scales are good! Alot of us do a Friday weigh-in on here…
    Jean- good you’ve been able to drive, hope you can find someone to do the job! We’re lucky our plumber is only round the corner, but he is a bit scatty & won’t always turn up when he says …
    Dave- I’m the same as you, rarely feel full & once I start eating I can keep going, even hungrier then! But it is definitely better on keto, your blood sugar level evens out so you’re less hungry, I think eating more protein helps too …Hard when you’re a bit of a fussy eater as well…
    Hemmy-hope you’ve had a good day out, & not got too cold!
    Poor Xena got a bit harassed with some dogs on our walk this morning, I did tell one of them off as the owner didn’t! Took a dinner over to son’s, had my haircut, & did cleaning this afternoon- quite annoyed with Mum as we need to do some banking stuff & kept the day free tomorrow, she doesn’t want to go & keeps making excuses, her usual avoiding being an adult behaviour! She just wants to go out & enjoy seeing her friends & not take responsibility for anything, I would happily do all the finances for her with the POA invoked but she thinks she’s fine ☹️ So might have to get a bit firm with her!

    Hi all. I was pleasantly surprised at my weight loss but I know most will be water. I am still on the 800 blood sugar diet and feel ok. Today, around lunch time my body told me I needed food so a 1 egg omelette with 100 gms of mushrooms mixed with a spoonful of fromage frae. It did the job. An afternoon kip then dinner was chicken, bean and veg casserole home made around 500 cals I think and again low carb.
    Symba7, no, I have not come across Dr Lustig, will check him out. Brad, I sometimes watch the Falcons, Gateshead is across the Tyne from “The Toon” and Workington is too far away. Hedgehog, I do sometimes have tea instead of plain water. Around 7 yrs ago I did a 60 hour plus water only fast prior to a colonoscopy. It became quite easy after 24 hrs but would be a challenge now. I lost 7lb but that was mainly water. I am off to the gym for some low intensity cardio, 30 mins inclined walk then a sauna. Good luck out there.

    Hedgehog…
    Hair cut time we usually do it together..I was 2weeks ago. My shower part is on its way then it will be finding a plumber.. and hoping the parts right!
    Your mum sounds hard work at the moment wanting to do her own thing.. she keeps you on your toes.

    Couscous..
    I remembered the books name…Dr Robert Lustig.. the book is “ Fat Chance”
    I could do to read again and Dr Fung.. puts you in the mind set…both are on Michael ‘s thinking…
    Good weight loss….😊
