Hi Lliena
Congrats on your previous weight loss and good luck with your fast today 🙂 I’m on my third fast today (I’m doing 4:3 to start off with) and my daughter is doing a good job of keeping my mind off eating. I don’t eat until the evening as I’d rather have one good size meal and if I eat earlier on I’m hungry all day. I’ve definitely found that my appetite has reduced already so hopefully the 5.5 stone I have to lose will come off slowly but surely. Not sure how much I have lost (if any) as I weigh in on a Wednesday. Hope you find your fast days easy and energising 🙂
I have started today after returning from a 2 week holiday and feeling relaxed but huge. I found it difficult for a few hours in the middle of the, with my stomach groaning louder than the thunder outside. Then did a, just under, 4 mile speed walk in an hour and felt much better and seemed to have much more energy than before setting off. I thought I wouldn’t be able to walk fast.
I think I shall do 4:3 this week and then 5:2 from then on.
Good luck to you all. Please record your progress on this thread, so I can keep in touch.
Jane.
PS.I’m not sure when to weigh myself, some people say after every FD. Any thoughts?
Just back for an update – in my first week I’ve lost 4.4lbs 😀 (I know a fair amount will be water) I’m ecstatic and so motivated to carry on as I can see a difference in my waist already! I’m so excited about this lifestyle change so hopefully it has a chance of sticking this time. The other amazing thing is I am (was) a chocolate addict – I had to have it every day. I bought a little bar of dark chocolate the other day and still haven’t eaten any of it as I just haven’t wanted it! This diet is worth continuing just for that effect!
With regards to when to weigh in, I’m doing it on the morning of my first fast day of each week (after a non-fasting day).
Starting my next fast today, onwards and downwards. Good luck guys!
Hi all I Just re registered on here..
Sounds like your all of to a flying start.
I’m Starting again after success on this last year (lost 3 stone) and falling of the wagon (regained over a stone)
So Fasting today and if I’m successful it will be my first week of 5:2 since last October. I miss the sense of control this WOE gives you.
