So yesterday's non-fasting day was a bit over the top-too much of the less than stellar choices. It did not feel great on the belly, and mentally felt a little obsessive.

SW 3/1/13 =274.8
CW= 267 up 3 it was the second up day
Calories =?
Net Carbs = ?
Fat= ?
Protein= ?
Sleep =6:53 91%
Steps= I forgot to put the fitbit back on when I changed clothes, so it only showed 3112 steps for yesterday.


Yesterday was a bit of a free for all, so no surprise that my weight is up so far. Fingers and toes are puffy. It was not the kind of non-fasting day that I am proud of, not just for quantity-although I am sure it was a bit too much as I felt very full-but also for quality.

Today will be better. I will choose foods that actually have some nutritional value for their calories.

I am so close to my target weight now - finally :victory: .. after struggling first with 3 kgs of gained weight after my Holiday in August and then slowly loosing weight..
My target goal is about 68-69 kg.. maybe when I come to that, I will loose more, but right now, I will be very pleased with that weight.

I have joined the Christmas club ant this forum, and it has helped me a lot to keep focus, I have a hope for hitting 69,9 before Christmas - only 1,6 kilo more :heart:

Ha I here you say.....that will be delayed weight gain - but as I have the dreaded dental appointment,am only drinking weak black tea :starving: Appointment 11.30 and will be having treatment :cry: So today is a fast day and as I am no longer on 5:2 as am aiming to maintain. Should still be on a downward trend ...

It's 4:20pm on this hot and humid day on Maui. So far, I have only consumed water and green tea throughout the day. I learned from the first fast day that I CANNOT split my calories into 3 meals. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner that day was a boiled egg and a small sausage. I figured that just eating protein would keep me fuller. It worked fine until after my dinner. I had dinner at 5:30. At 7:00pm, I felt like I was starving! There was no way I would have been able to sleep with my stomach grumbling the way it was. I gave in and had a snack before bed.

I read some blogs about combining your calories in one meal. I figure I'd try it out. So far, so good for me. Yes, I'm hungry. Yes, I keep looking at the clock to check how much more time until dinner. Looking forward to dinner is certainly an understatement right now =) I just think that this way is better for me. If I get a decent amount of food for dinner, I know I'll sleep way better. This is only my second fast day, but I'm striving...
