Intro from Ireland

Hi,

I'm a 49 year old woman from Ireland. Typical red head, overweight and fed up! I've been doing intermittent fasting for about 3 weeks and I am losing, just wish it was faster. Would love some people to chat to, especially if you are doing intermittent fasting too.

Hi - I am trying to get back to IF after being off for what is going on 3 years and 20 lbs later :( - I had huge success with IF for about 3 years, I began with I think it was 18:6 but then when the summer hit, I changed it up to 5:2 (500 cals 2 times a week and then normal eating the rest of the week) and also had success. I have to just get my mind in this to start again. I may start with the 18:6 and then go to the 5:2 once I lose some weight - I am 51 years old and pre-menopausal so I think that is also a factor. Good luck - I have to work on organizing my meals for the week, espcially on fasting days - when I was successful, air popped popcorn and frozen blueberries saved me from over snacking. :)
