Hi there,
I have just completed my first day of fasting yesterday and although it was tough (and felt like the longest day ever!) its wasn’t as bad as I expected. I even managed to do my normal gym routine and felt absolutely fine which I was worried about, and actually was under my calories at the end of the day so had a few left for a bit of fruit! Woke up today feeling extremely positive and looking forward to being able to eat what I like but also not feeling that I want to stuff my face!
I have tried both slimming world and weight watchers in the past which seems to work well but then I stop and the weight slowly creeps back up until I decide I need to do something about it.
I bought the book on Monday and am flying through it, I am a very scientific person so all the evidence and trials about fasting are fascinating to me. Fast day 2 tomorrow so we’ll see how that goes!

You and I are on the same fasting schedule…Tuesday and Thursday. Yesterday was my first fast (ever!) as well, and it went great! I was surprised at how much energy I had, got a little “hangry” around dinner time, but one sensible egg-white omelet later and I was in tip top shape again.

Congrats to you and best of luck tomorrow!

I am also on the same fasting schedule this week and did my first day of fasting yesterday which went well although was tough!

Good luck to you both!

Do you know are you able to do bootcamp classes on a fasting day or would that be not recommended?

I think they say to exercise on feast days, or exercise late in the fasting day. But really I think it would depend on how you feel and what works fo ryou. Expiriment a little and see what feels the best!
