Our Frequently Asked Questions topic will answer many of your fasting & weight loss questions!
If you're new and have a question or need some advice, please give us as much information as you can about your situation in order for us to be able to help you as best we can. For example, it's helpful to know your BMI/weight, how much you want to lose, any medical conditions which might affect your weight and (if you've started fasting already) how you do your fasts in terms of splitting up your calories, what you eat etc. Thanks!
As for the books, while they are an informative starting point, you really can find all you need and more on this website and forum. It contains the combined experience and knowledge of thousands of fasters!
So glad you've found us because you'll get no better chance of losing that unwanted weight while also enjoying your regular foods and treats.
Lots of members including me only eat evening meal because once we eat a lunch it wakes up the hunger monster in us then that fastday is doomed waiting all day is far easier than you first think it will be then we can make those 500 cals go a very long way sometimes a 2 course meal of veggie based ingredients cutting down on carbs on fastday is a very good tip we go into fatburning quicker, good luck and measure everywhere before you start and pop back and let us all know how you're getting on Sue

Hello and welcome from me too. Well done for not giving in yesterday.
There are many ways to connect here. At the moment there isn't a chat room, but it is in the pipeline. The Chatterbox tent is the general chit chat one. You can start your own blog, you can buddy up with someone of similar ideas, goals, lifestyle etc. you may also pop into tents for inspiration ie the lo carbers tent, the IF tent, the glamorous grannies tent, the CFS tent, the 4.3 tent. They are just permanent threads/topics which everyone can pop into and join in. There's a gardeners tent, fashionista tent. Something for everyone really.
Look forward to seeing you tent hop soon.
"Come join us in a tent at the Fastonbury glamorous camping grounds, or put up your own tent! Tents are a great place to find likeminded souls in similar situations or with similar interests. Think of them as a sort of a club or group."
