  • Hi
    Recent convert to fast diet, love the fast days because they give me a real buzz!
    Regular days I find I’m eating too much (or maybe feel I am) so weight loss not been great. Any ideas on how not to overdo normal days??

    I have a couple. You can try to avoid high cal food on non-fast days and eat more vegetables to satisfy your hunger. Or, if you like fasting, you can limit your eating on non-fast days to 8 hours. You don’t necessarily have to do these things on every non-fast day. It would depend on how fast you think you need to lose weight. I do however think it’s important to not go hungry on non-fast days so that you don’t slow down your metabolism. My idea is that I will eat a little too much on non-fast days, just not so much that I don’t lose weight, and that seems to happen pretty well if I avoid cream, butter, desserts, pastry, cheese etc but otherwise eat what I want. What I’m doing now, actually, since I’m at my goal, is overeating enough on non-fast days so that I can still do 2 fast days a week and not lose weight, eating more of those above mentioned “bad” things.

    Thanks for tips dlroseberry. Probable blow out tomorrow as its my birthday but determined to get back to it friday.
