Hi everyone just started i have tried all diets you name it I’ve tried it 🙂 anyhow this is the end of my second fast day – tomorrow being mothers day and all that so I thought I might try 4:3 and see how I go – the thought is that if I aim for 4:3 and fail at least I’ve been able to do 5:2 – would love some toast at the minute so thought would do my first ever ever blog about anything Yeah! and so stay away from the kitchen even though I hear the toaster calling :). Anyhow all your blogs are great to read – I will keep you posted if I lose anything – Have great day Jo

Hi, I too am planning to start tomorrow, I’ve never used an on line site before so I’m hoping by logging in often I will keep motivated.

Hi zoe, simcoeluv,angie, syeeda, dizzymac – thanks so much for all your posts – I re read the book and decided to fast from 10pm through to 6/7pm on my second day which gave at 20 hour fast I think I found this easier than the day I had lunch – what did you all do?

Hi, 10 pm to 6/7pm seems like a long time in my book, I started my first fasting day on Friday I had only read half the book and I did not know that I should leave as long as possible between meals, I thought it was just eat 500 calories throughout the day, so I had pineapple 100 cals for breakfast 8 am, at 12 noon weight watchers soup 87 calories, at 4pm a slice of whole meal bread tomato sauce and lead beef 220 cals one apple 40 cals. I make I 450 cals I was going to have a WW yoghurt later but I got to the part of the book about leaving as much time as possible between meals so I did not eat the yoghurt hence the shortfall of 50 calories.
Today is my second fasting day Sunday 9. 30am I have had a latte 67 cals a very small banana, 1 slice of WM bread scraping of jam 200 cals. Tonight which I am looking forward to, is cauliflower with low fat cheese sauce I am hoping to have it about 5 or 6 pm. Should be 250 I will double check it.

Hi JIPWGP I only picked up that some people leave it as long as possible between meals but it seems to be whatever suits you. i think i will change to same as you – you sound more organised than me actually sounds better. I just also got a call re bloods that just happened to be done on a the fasting day blood sugar was 50 so have to go see nurse any how think maybe better to do it your way thanks for the reply and the tips – also wee note I had a subway salad the other day 257 cals – was really good.:)
