Hi Folks,
Well, I plan a semifast for today. I (re-)started Tuesday last and enjoy the feeling of vitality and energy that fasting gives me. I had forgotten all about that. So I will restrict my calories today to 700 kcal, that's the plan anyway. Have a good Sunday,
Josie 50

Hi Nursebean,
Thanks, my fast went quite well, I managed to stick to 640 kcals. And I seem to have splendid results so far - since I started fasting I lost 4 kg! I know it's mainly water at the beginning, but still I am very pleased with this result. Due to my non-functioning thyroid I gained weight if I ever so much as thought about food. Probably my dosage has to be upped again, I will hear that next Thursday. Anyway, this WoL really agrees with me, I also like the energetic feeling fasting gives me, I had forgotten about that. Wish you all the best with your fast today. I will fast again tomorrow. Best regards,
Josie

Hi @Josie50
Well it certainly sounds as though fasting is working well for you. Its great isn't it - and so easy really. I find the days in between difficult to deal with. Keeping low carb is definitely the answer for me. I have got so much more energy these days!
Back to fasting today - hoorah!!
