For anyone with a daft sense of humour I thought I'd start Nog's Blogs, never considered doing one before so no idea what I'm doing, but that's never stopped me in life, so here we go ....... a barmy way of looking at life without going 'off topic' or 'hi-jacking' someone elses thread

Have had a few ropey weeks. I've managed most fasting days well, its on the other days I've been going right off the boil. I'm determined to beat this, even though I suspect I haven't lost any weight. I have kept reminding myself that my reason's for doing this is not just weight loss, but for health benefits. I'm looking to avoid the usual "nasties" associated with getting old. Still, I have all this week to redeem myself on the weight front and hopefully when I get weighed on Saturday there will be some weight loss. Any off, or even staying the same, will be sufficient.

I'm getting used to the new site now. It has taken some adjustment, and nice to be back on the blog. I'm fasting today again which will make it three fasts this week. I do hope that that will show on the scales at some point as I'm getting a little frustrated with feeling heavy. However I know that yesterday I over-ate by some distance. I didn't count everything but for some reason had no appetite control whatsoever.

My weight loss has been rather slow, with lots of high spikes between fasting days. In the last week or so I've been adding in the occasional 16:8 day on 'feed' days. Seems to be helping - my weight holds steady now between fast days, and my rate of loss looks like it might be increasing a bit.
Not finding it hard to do, either. I usually start eating around 1 pm, and don't eat after 9 pm.
Still a long way to go, 20+ kg ... but I'm nearly 4 kg down now, since starting in late April.

I started on this process about 2-3 weeks ago and I am learning to love myself and listen to my body. This hasn't been a miracle cure but it has opened my mind and body to the concept that I won't die or feel terrible if I don't conform to the norm and eat three times a day.
It has not yet become an automatic choice thing yet, my brain occasionally over rides my body and I eat more than I need to at a meal but more often than not I have successfully cut down on portion sizes. The way it works for me is this...I serve up a smaller than previously normal portion and enjoy the meal. Then if there is anything left over I decline to help myself to seconds but I promise myself that if in half an hour I really am hungry, I can have a little bit more. What I am finding is that it never occurs to me to get up and help myself to more.
Denial doesn't work for me but choice does and on my weekly weigh in the weight is gently reducing. I feel liberated and much more in control of my body and...
