Day 17 Liquid fast day

Weight 8st 13.75

Not surprising. I did stick to my 16:8 although it was hard. Ddin't eat til 12 but I had a very carby day to be honest and I need to make a batch of coconut bread this weekend to curb those carbs. I had hoped to be under 1000cals yesterday but ended up eating out for dinner so it was scuppered.

I ended up having the following:

12pm: slimbo & butter(150)
130pm: 2slimbos & butter (300), crips (125), 2 biscuits (90)
4pm: 3 bourbon biscuits (200)
7pm: small cheese plate (500 ....I have no idea), french fries (400), 2 wines (250)

Total: 1640- not the worst but defo need to fast today now. I also got no exercise in. I've been dying with a cold the last couple days but today I really feel rotten. Quite chesty, cold miserable and as if I was out on the tear last night although I defo wasn't.

I am trying to liquid fast to kickstart everything but I'm not down to 0cals at all. Today I have 2 packs of knorr chicken soup to try shift my cold. If I eat 1 pack it is 260cals and 20carbs. If I can stick to that I will be happy. I may try a hot totty of some sort later too. I will be having much tea and bovril too to try remain hydrated as I need this fast to go well. I'm going to do some research into zero liquid fasting versus 500 cals of liquid. I intend to go down to zero or close enough with tea and coffee at some point but I think it will take me a couple of weeks.
