189 this morning. I was very weak and tired yesterday, I was feeling great today.
Drinking diet coke/pepsi when I feel like it, and honey and tea as well. I'm feeling good, and very happy to be back to fasting. I was completely bingeing after going off my fast improperly.....and I mean completely!
It's very nice and comforting to feel back in control. I have to warn you, it was very difficult my first couple of days to stay on this fast. I had never had such difficulty previously. so I attribute that to the poorly broken fast and the total gluttony since then. I would recommend to anyone who is really, truly struggling with beginning a fast to try to go just a day at a time, and if you really can't find the willpower to continue, to eat healthy, fruits and veggies, and try to start your fast again. Starting my second fast after the healthy eating habits I gained from the first one was so effortless.
But now all is well, I'm on day 5 and I'm feeling pretty in control. I even made brownies today and I felt hardly a temptation, though I will admit I ate a couple crumbs that stuck to the knife while I was cutting them!

Hi, So happy to see you posting again.
ReplyDeleteMaking brownines while you are fasting! You are a stronger woman than I! I will be doing a two-day fast this weekend. I am going to do a fast with a formula made for fasting (hmmm Chocolate flavored). When I explain it like that to my fiancé and family they seem satisfied with my actions. You know how loved ones can be...

Hi Ven! Thanks for visiting my blog here :D
ReplyDeleteWow! Good luck with your yummy chocolate fast :) Is that something you made yourself or you bought somewhere?
And I'm glad it has allowed you to appear "acceptable" in your weightloss choices.
I hope you're doing well with your fasting. Best wishes to you.
ReplyDeleteThank you Jim :)
ReplyDeleteHi Amanda,
ReplyDeleteThe fast is the two-day fast from Beachbody. I will let you know how it tastes.
Yeah, I have warned my family and they seem Ok with it, but we will see come Saturday morning when I only order a hot tea for breakfast. It is our "tradition" for my parents and my siblings to meet up for breakfast every Saturday. My father dearly loves to feed me too. LOL. An hour after breakfast he is trying to feed me lunch!
Regards,
