Do I stay prayerful? Definitely, as this helped me conquer emotional eating.
Am I avoiding food on purpose? I cooked so much bacon yesterday I filled a gallon bag. Temptation was not there to eat. (Preparing for a trip...we don't eat that much bacon! Lol)
Am I drinking more water? Some...but I've added ice tea and am loving that.
I don't have the answers. Fasting has saved my health. I can't wait until the weight is gone (I have 58 lbs to go). I'm actually looking forward to my physical in August...never said that before! Really hoping (with this site...

Nearly 5 years, my how time flies. My current weight is 135, and I have decided to start fasting more often to get to my goal of 128. Anything between 128-132 is good these days. I have been around...

With two big holiday events in the past 10 days, my eating parameters have suffered a bit to say the least! For some reason I just could not get myself to fast this past week AT ALL, plus those two events...

Popped back up to the 155 range this morning (10/30/2017), but feels like this is the ceiling instead of the floor this time, which is encouraging. Besides, my monthly cycles appeared today, so must allow...

I'm currently shifting a lot of my mindset and methods this week, so I'm jumping off the weeks and switching to days. This is, after all, a whole life kind of thing, right? Besides, I don't like having...

Good luck, @moderatemeals! I think you'll love this way of life!
Losing 1.6 pounds is hardly a plateau! You are not going to keep losing at the same rate as the beginning. You should be very happy with 1 pound a week!

Yes, it is terribly dead here, especially lately. I think that people either just have all the information they need or have stopped this WOE. It is a shame. But stick around. It seems to go in waves....
