As the title says, I quit smoking early October and started gaining weight at an alarming rate, from 62 to 74 kilograms. No clothes fit and I hadn’t planned on spending the money I save from not smoking on a new wardrobe.

I don’t really want to fast but have decided to give it a go anyway to see if it can give my metabolism a kick in the a**e.

I have been low carbing on and off for several years and don’t have any weight problems but type 2 diabetes. I have been on a rather strict LCHF for the past year since my diabetes diagnosis and lost a bit that I didn’t know I should loose. And now I have gained 20% of my weight in a very short period of time and I hate it.
