So...let's get this underway!

by Lori on 29 Apr 2013, 19:04

I've been a member on the forums here for nearly a month and have never explored the "blog" section! Not sure how much I'll keep up with a blog, but let's give it a go!

I'm having limited success with this WOE due to my own sabotage. I've been a terrible chocolate monster on my feast days and I know this cannot be good. Fasting days are typically fairly easy for me. I'm in week 4 and am down 2.5 lbs. My aim for this week is to stay away from the chocolate for the most part!

I've been doing 4:3, but this week will have to be a 5:2 as I just found out that the whole office is being taken out for lunch on Wednesday, which would have been a fast day for me(M-W-F). So......I'll fast Thursday and that will be it for the week. I know that some people do just as well with only 2 fasts a week, so perhaps this week will prove that 2 work better for me as well!

I do 3-4 rigorous boot camp sessions a week before work (5:45AM). I'm thinking I burn 500-700 calories a session. Perhaps just 2 fast days a week and eating a healthy diet for most of the other days will get the scale moving in the right direction? Fingers crossed.
