Loving me....

I'm sure no one is reading this but,that's ok. I'm loving the new me,today is the 26th day of my fast and I feel fantastic.

If anyone had told me food wont mean much.....I'm sure I would have argued. Although its was a busy week,I've had to consciously remembered to take green tea or water by 2pm everyday this week. I just dint remember food. The fast is the highest level of discipline my body has received in a while.

Although the weight loss is gradual,not drastic,I see a trimmer body everyday. I'm full of energy, not moody,no headaches...I can go on.

I also noticed that I have a clear head...maybe brain. All I mean is I react smarter and faster to situations now. 

Tomorrow Is Saturday, weekend as more difficult but I intend to go on with the fast . I tried not to fast two Saturdays ago,I ended up with cramps after eating so I intend to fast.

Hoping to have a great weekend without food, but I will give my self a reward/treat this weekend for being good all week. I'm still trying to decide what it will be. Thinking.....

Nice comments are coming in.....gave myself a treat...

I attened a friend's wedding today and I still fasted till 5 pm,I only had water throughout. This is a milestone for me because this kind of event used to be an excuse to over eat.

Anyway,the nice comments are coming in,my sister noticed I've lost weight ....yiiippppeee. At least someone other than my husband has noticed. I think the scale is not showing much but my cloths are more loose.

I got new cloths today(i planned to give myself a treat, it was either coldstone ice-cream or go shopping) I've gone one size down......yiiippeeeee. I feel so good and motivated. I hope to return to the gym next week (so help me God).

Update.......

Yesterday was not as easy as other days. Fasted till 5 although I prefer fasting till 6.

I'm getting used to this new way of life. It has helped reduce my appetite and I think my stomach is smaller now. I'm more disciplined now and can resist any form of food temptation. I'm just not moved at allllll. 

I remain grateful and thankful to the Almighty,I think this is a divine intervention.

Week 3

Day to day or as time permits, i will post my progress on this blog.

This is week 3 on the Fast-5 or fast-6, which is what always happen. i have more energy,less craving for food and I've lost 6kg,this is amazing considering my record of weight loss.

I'll learn more about blogging to make this more interesting. I've been inspired and encouraged by so many people talking about their progress....i hope I'm able to do same.

Fast-5

Fast-5 Life! Fast-5 is a way of losing weight and maintaining a healthy weight that is based on a lifestyle change, not a specific diet. Living a Fast-5 lifestyle means setting a window of five consecutive hours in which you do all your eating for the day.It doesn't mean binge eating or overeating. The long fasting period (19 hours) lets your body use stored fuel instead of fuel being delivered from digestion. That time also lets your body measure how much fat is stored and turn your appetite down if there's too much around. With a lower appetite, weight loss becomes easy.
