Gonna Get To Goal. Wanna Join Me?

Good luck to all tomorrow! Coops, here's the weird thing on non-fast days, YOU STILL EAT LESS! At least I am eating way less because I am conscious of everything going in myfitnesspal and faithfully logging in myfitnesspal as well as increased exercise (from almost none)! ???? And yet, I have MORE energy. After trying sooo hard for several months of low carb this sure seems easier for the long haul.

Well I had a fast day, anorm day, and today is a fast day. The morning after my first fast day I was down 3 pounds, this morning, up 3 lbs. Today I ate the white part of a boiled egg for Breakfast, will drink hot tea/coffee/cold Water throughout the day, then will have tuna salad for dinner. I've also decided to alternate my workout days, doing my cardio on norm days, at least at first. We'll see.

So I went to support last night and didn't get a chance to ask about this plan. There were a TON of newbies there who had LOTS of questions (not a bad thing) but just didn't get around to asking about this plan.

I am thinking that what my NUT *might* say is that this is great as long as you continue with it. I had previously asked her about the 5DPT (5 day pouch test...google if you don't know what I'm talking about) and she said it's fine to use it but what is NOT fine is doing it for 5 days then resuming with your regular eating. So even though I didn't get to ask about this plan I'm sure it would fall under that category.

I'm looking forward to hearing all about you guys trying this!!! Please keep posting and updating and maybe I will join you all at some point!

I think the hardest thing for me is going to be spacing the food 12 hours apart. It's 8:06 in the morning and I haven't eat yet so if I eat at 9 I have to wait and eat at 9 at night???

>.<

NannieG dies that mean your not eating again until 10:45 tonight? Sorry I'm confused! I haven't eaten

[swizzly 901]

I do my long stretch at night into morning -- so I go 18 hours without eating, only have coffee in the morning then have late lunch for 2 pm-ish, then dinner before 8 pm, that gives me another 12+ hours of fasting after the fast day too. My first day after fasting has been eating a lot so far, well not a LOT lot, but what feels like a lot after fasting. I get full faster already! I haven't lost any weight yet, but I dig the fasting thing so I'm sticking with it for a while yet.

I'm in Switzerland.

PS: Um, I'm having white wine, dark chocolate and organic British Cheddar for dinner. Bad?

I am doing the same thing. I find myself getting grumpy because I can't eat for 12 hours so I'm hoping the 12 hours from dinner to breakfast will be enough of a break.

Today I had a Protein Shake for breakfast....

For lunch a Chobani Greek Yogurt....

dinner a Protein shake
