The FastDay Forum

Today I dipped below a BMI of 30, which means I am leaving the ranks of the obese and joining the ranks of the overweight

I started this diet around 6 weeks ago when my doctor had a serious conversation about how my weight was affecting my health, and suggested the Fast Diet as a good option for weight management. It has working very well for me, especially with the flexibility it affords.

Anyway, I still have quite a bit to go in order to achieve a healthy weight, but this is certainly a significant milestone for me.

Huge congratulations, and respect to your doctor for suggesting it!!

Congrats ma3xiu1. That is great news. Overweight even sounds better. I'm in the overweight and was in the obese range too so I know the feeling. It is certainly good to be heading in the right direction for good health. Sounds like you have a good doctor supporting you too Good luck with your journey

Its great to hear that doctors are paying attention.
Congratulations on the milestone reached.

That's fantastic, well done ma3xiu1! I started 5:2 in the obese category eight months ago and am just about to drop into the 'normal' range so I know how good it feels to see your progress in such a concrete way. Great to also hear there are doctors out there who are willing to recommend 5:2! The best of luck to you.

Congratulations! Well done!

Congradulations on being overweight. I bet you feel as though you are thin. I achieved this several weeks ago and was thrilled. So thrilled that I decided to take a little break. I can report that I have only gained one pound eating whatever crap that I have desired. However I no longer feel thin. I am ready to move forward to a healthy BMI but... no matter how hard I try I cannot complete a fast. I am perplexed by this because I was quite successful with fasting in the past. Maybe I should just wait until after the holidays but I know in my heart I must get back on track.

Well done indeed! Lucky you having a doctor who is "in the know"! You must feel pleased with your results so far and if you can on it'll just keep getting better and better!

Good luck!

Fab, well done
