I did fine today too, skipped food until 4pm, then some yummy Soup. However, I had some SF chocolate pudding because I was craving chocolate too! Naughty me. Still on the mark though. Felt great. Yes, there is always tomorrow, one of the fantastic things about the 5:2! Great job girls!

Yesterday I only came in at 400 calories. Normally I am around 550 but I wasn't feeling good and I went to bed early.

Susie, be careful eating today. Try to stick to your plan if you can. I believe what makes 5:2 work is sticking to a good diet on your regular days.

I'm interested in finding out if you feel more restriction than usual today.

Great job Susan!

Trying to eat today but cannot find enough clean foods to fill out my calories so I'll only have 650 cals today and I did Insanity plus weights.

Quest bars are my crack.......LOL I am so trying not to order any more of those, now I find myself thinking of going to the mall to buy them...Uggggggh! Good news is I haven't given in yet... :P

I struggle with fasting last week so this week I will make it rock. Time to get down to the 130's with no excuses.....I know it can be done because I have Georgia as a great example for me! :P;)

Georgia you are my role model..... :P

Feeling weird today, not a bad thing, but I don't have an appetite. I woke up and ate 1 1/2 low carb tortillas with low fat shredded moZz and olive oil and middle eastern blend called Zatar. Haven't ate since, been drinking my fluids. It's almost 2pm and I really am not hungry. Probably going to have to grab me a Protein Shake before work. What do you all do when you aren't hungry on a regular day?

5:2 caused me and many others to be much less hungry on feast days! Enjoy! I believe that watching what you eat on non fast days increases your loss overall. Just get your Protein in and don't go too low on cals or your body will adjust to it and slow down loss overall.

Susie,

Have you spoken to your doctor about fasting?

On the 5:2 website it says that certain people should not follow this method.

Including type 1 diabetics...

I worry about something going wrong.

Most def don't do this until checking with your Dr if you are Type 1.

I did mention it and she said as long as I drink my fluids and my bs is stable then she trusts me ;)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
