Hi there.
My advice is to stick with it. Make a rule that you have breakfast in the morning and dinner at night and nothing else passes your lips between apart from liquid without calories. Its the easiest way to deal with the fast days. If you resist eating througout the day you wont get hungry and if you know that nothing can pass your lips until dinner you tend to stick to the intention behind it. I wouldnt waste too many colories on milk, rather use towards real food at a meal.
Good luck!
Definately stick with it, just tell yourself you can have some peanut butter tomorrow! Thats the great thing about this way of eating, you dont have to deny yourself anything. Just work hard at your fast days, and they will get easier. Your stronger than you think 🙂 and we’re all here to support you along the way. Posting on here helps keep me strong too, knowing I’m accountable. Keep going ….. 🙂
Congrats for pushing through that temptation. You will work out your own individual triggers. I didn’t have my first food until 3.30pm today then ended up having all the rest of my calories straight afterwards as it really stimulated my hunger. Lots of people have posted that it is easier not to eat at all on a FD and I think that could be good advice. I may make it a rule that if I don’t have my first 100 cals by 1pm then I won’t bother having it at all. I used to be very fearful of not eating in case I binged but now I know that won’t happen it is an amazing feeling 😊
I hate how I always feel hungrier the minute I eat something. Yesterday was a normal eat day for me, and I felt hungrier than when I was fasting, crazy!
Well done on getting through it though, it will get easier. The problem for me on fast days mainly is headaches 🙁 another thing that makes my body tell me to eat something. Keep going, I have read that the headaches do go away the more fasts you do.
Have a great day itwhat, Jilly R and everyone else on this journey 🙂 xx
