A few other ladies and myself are all starting a fat fast on Monday April 22nd. I figured a support group thread would be a great idea and allow others to join in with us, offer support and offer suggestions.

    I might join you guys on this... I'm travelling this weekend so beginning a fat fast on Monday is probably a good idea. Even if I don't join this time around I'll be spying on your progress to gather ideas!

    I think I might join as well. My weight loss has really slowed down this month. Wondering if this kickstart might be a good idea. I've never done one. I'm sure I could research it more but perhaps one of you ladies who is familiar could give me an idea of what kind of things I can eat and how it works?

    I'm in. :)

    If you have any kind of e-reader, grab Dana Carpender's The Fat Fast Cookbook. It's an easy read, there's some great information before the recipes, and enough high-fat options to keep things from getting old. She's also got a light, breezy, funny writing style that I really like.

    Edited to fix my non-html and ask: how long are you all planning on doing yours? I know 3-5 days is the most common.

    Okay, I'm on board with this as of this morning. Aiming to do 3 days. Made a big batch of fat bombs last night and they're pretty delicious!

    Fat fast chocolate milk...

    Soy Slender Chocolate Soy milk (1/2 cup) and a quarter cup of heavy cream. This is better than a fat bomb to me and near perfect fat fast macros.

    That sounds good. May substitute almond or coconut milk though. Try to stay away from soy

    ooo, that reminds me...i made something like this the other night when I just wanted something warm before bed. it was a cup of unsweetened vanilla coconut milk, 3 tbsp of heavy cream, a couple of drops of ez sweetz, a splash of vanilla and a shake of cinnamon. YUM.

    how'd everyone do? sadly, i felt so terrible after day one that that was really all i could do. but i'd like to try it again soonish.

    I did two full days. after day 1 I'd lost 2 pounds, and after day 2 I'd gained a pound back (?!) so I gave it up.

    Will probably try it again soon, though.
