Fantastic!

Another thing that seems cooky is that we think we can measure our daily consumption of calories to any great accuracy (especially by believing the nutrition label which may be off by many % points) and also believe that our body is burning the exact same number every day.

Welcome and good luck!

I haven't done 5:2, but have been intermittent fasting for 18 months. Eat from about noon until 6pm. Just your alloted calories. It works well for me.

1,800 is so easy. If you drink coffee, put cream in it. Or even have a bulletproof coffee. Butter and cream in the coffee, and whip it in blender.

Does fasting reduce resting metabolic rate?
-
If OP has a problem with sugar, why can't we just accept it instead of telling the person just have some and you will be fine.

Keto is less than 30g carbs per day, usually. Doesn't sound that this is keto.
-
Yes, there is one!
-
oops, sorry about that, I wanted to write that this was a great answer and to add that the OP should always strive to find food options that are very low carbohydrate, instead of trying to find ones that are normally high in carbohydrates to be made into some lower-carb version.

Welcome Heather, you can definitely get back to your old self. Keep working hard and take it day by day.

There is a site called bloodsugar101.com and it has a lot of information about these drugs.

It would be nice to see your diary. How many carbs and proteins do you eat a day?
-
Do you mean, you don't lies weight when doing IF? I lost 30lbs skipping breakfast, and eating my daily alloted calories from lunch to dinner.

78! Unexpected since I am eating more sugar-laden foods these last few days. Trying my best to stop.

Welcome!

I am still working on asking myself if I am hungry and then not eating if I am not. I suspect it will be months until this is second nature.

Great transformation!

Can you share the numbers?
-
How many calories do you eat daily? I don't know what Y 3x week means and cheer coaching, what do you do there? I also would love to see diary of foods you eat. Do you snack?

Hi!

I second that! Congratulations!

Looking good, two things. I would supplement with vit D, and take in more salt. I am not sure why HDL didn't gi up.
-
I would eat something to cover the exercise time. Even 10-15g carbs?
-
Dr. R. Kraft studied 15,000 people and showed that there are many undiagnosed prediabetics with high insulin and normal blood fasting glucose. Your results basically mean you should lay low on carbs, so that you could reduce your insulin.

I would worry about injury at this stage. Why don't you walk really fast at first?
