Started Monday !!!

Dear 5:2wers/friends........Just to say thank you for all your support and posts. Started on Monday & went surprisingly well. Did my second fast today, again a breeze. The only think I am finding is that I have so much energy and cannott sleep.

Literally going to bed around 3am!!! Giving myself a 'kickstart' so doing the 4:3 this week. Feeling good & not feeling hungry which did bother me prior to starting. Not going to weigh myself till I get back home end of next week.

So thank you all again and wishing us all to enjoy life, feel comfortable with ourselves & let's keep going : :smile:

Hi TSK!

I started on Monday as well, and am doing a 4:3 (today is my last repair day for the week).

Surprisingly, I found my feast day to be more difficult than my previous fasting days! I measured things for the first time and got a rude awakening when adding all of the calories together.
What a fantastic opportunity to re-educate ourselves with what we're actually putting into our bodies!

Good luck with it all!

Thanks AB for your lovely reply...totally agree with you as it was an eye-opener for me too when measuring the foods we now consume.

I am so concious of whatever I eat now and it was a big wake up call.

Doing my third day and its so far going well, not feeling hungry at all lol.

@Tracieknits...thank you too for always supporting everyone!!!

Wishing you the best as well and let's keep going :)
