I’m Canadian but I have been living in Japan for more than 16 years. I watched the documentary last year and instead of doing the fast diet I tried alternate day fasting and that didn’t go too well. I don’t think I was prepared and maybe starting off that way wasn’t so good for me.

Today is my first fast day. I made egg drop soup and will eat that when I’m hungry. The good thing is …I’m never hungry when I wake up so skipping “breakfast” is normal for me. My day is a bit odd as I tend to go to sleep around 3-4 am and wake up around 11am or noon.

I’ve been reading the forums a lot and looking around the web for low cal recipes for the fast days. I think I will also keep my regular days lower carb and gluten free most of the time.

Anyway, I just wanted to say hi!

Hi Sofia, hope you’ll findthat the fast diet works for you! For me the fast days are more about not eating and control than focus on what to eat, but you got to discover what works for you. So good luck!

Thanks!

Well I made it through my first fast day. I did get tired but nothing to bad. I don’t drink coffee or tea so no caffeine headache thankfully. I think I will do Wednesdays normally as my 2nd fast day but this week I have plans so I will do Friday instead. I already have it planned so no surprises will get in my way! I think i will try for one meal in the evening and see how that goes.

Have a great day everyone.
