Hi all! My name is Kathleen, and I am new to the Fast Diet. I started on Sunday with my first fast, and today is my second day of fasting. The first day was difficult, but I made it through! The book is right — after fasting on that day, I did not overeat the next day. In fact, I made better choices because I didn’t want to waste all of my good work. I did almost cave on the first day — my stomach was growling so hard, and all I could think about was the ice cream in my freezer!! But I persisted, and am SOOOOOOOOO glad! I am also doing Weight Watchers, and my weigh-in meeting is tomorrow. I am really looking forward to seeing if this fasting will affect the movement of the needle on the scale!!! I will let you all know! If anyone in the central VA area wants an buddy or encourager, I am your woman 🙂

Thanks so much, Lindyw! That is a great thought to keep in mind! I’ll try repeating that mantra to myself during the pain! Hahaha!
