Globetrotter 1,340 Posted August 19, 2013 It was a gargantuan effort, and deeply psychological, but I made it - I finished the day with only 633 cals, phew!! Every single episode of the shows I watched from my hard drive had food scenes! Food was frickin' everywhere!! I ended up not finishing the Protein Shake and having the double portion of beef Jerky.< /p> Today is a feed day and for Breakfast I had about 4 oz of egg white/ham/sausage/cheese/peppers/onions scramble and a half a raisin bagel with an oz of cream cheese. For lunch I will probably have a big salad with chicken (if they have it) and some caesar dressing and dinner .... who knows, whatever non-fried Protein they have! 2 Georgia and feedyoureye reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Globetrotter 1,340 Posted August 19, 2013 I am ridiculously proud of myself. Would be even prouder if I had managed to go to the gym this morning, but I will do squats and planks and sit ups in my room tonight. 3 swizzly, Georgia and feedyoureye reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Georgia 2,908 Posted August 20, 2013 Fast day. 11:30 am. Nothing yet. Hungry. . Trying to hit that 16 hour window at noon before eating. 2 No game and feedyoureye reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Globetrotter 1,340 Posted August 21, 2013 Georgia, 16 hour window? What is that? Yesterday was my fast day and as per usual it was a breeze - until work was over and I was alone in my room, then it became a test of will. I only caved slightly, having a tbsp of PB and some dried apple rings, bringing my cals to 682 instead of the under 600 I ought to have done but oh well. Did legs yesterday in the gym and am *OW* waddling like a cowboy today, whimpered when I sat down at my desk! I have discovered that I can't even begin to get in the Water on feed days, anybody else notice this? So, because I'm doing ADF, my fast days have become my hydration days. Anybody else?
