Hi Thin, in relation to the article I was thinking of how Dr. M maintains in similar way as you do by utilizing both 6:1 and 5:2 as maintenance tools. This sounds healthy as it can be so easy for me to think that I’ve ‘arrived’ when I reach my goal weight/size/shape and could be so easy to leave the program and perhaps feel that I no longer need it. You and Dr. M. underscore the significance of viewing this truly as a WOL (way of life). Also, it is easy for me to put Dr. M on a pedestal! I love reading that he’s just like me! …Has cravings, needs to develop and follow strategies to help him maintain!
I searched out the article because I just wanted to find something where Dr. M stated that he was still practicing a form of IF and hadn’t decided that it was no longer needed or relevant in the advent of the 8 Week Blood Sugar Diet! I guess I’d wondered since Dr. M. hadn’t made any reference to 5:2 or IF during the ‘Insight’ show with Jenny Brockie that aired earlier in the year.
I was elated this morning to find myself weighing less than I did after my last FD and that I’ve broken into the 59 kg range! So fostering more awareness and care, consciousness with NFD eating is helping, making a difference.
