Just an update. 5 days in and I think it's going great! I've been doing 16:8 with a feeding window from 2 PM to 10 PM. Yesterday I fasted for 19.5 hours and it didn't bother me a bit. I'll admit I slept a bunch so that probably helped. Today was my first day back at work since I started and no problems. I brought a couple…

Hi I'm Melissa. I just started IF 3 days ago. I intended to do Eat Stop Eat but decided to try 16:8 and see how I do fasting for that long first. I might begin adding to my fast incrementally. So far so good but man, I really have some strong carb cravings (I had those before IF as well). I have looked at so many sites and…

I think I will need to talk to the vet soon about some Rimadyl for him - he looks pretty sore some days. We have been giving him glucosamine for…

Hi All! I do have a total weight loss goal in mind but I really need to spend some time thinking about what is realistic for the 12 weeks and I'd like to set a goal for losing inches/body fat as well. I have just started logging my weight and food and just the daily activity information from S Health for exercise. I…

I'll be your friend Kimberly! I just started this again last week. Last time I committed to it I lost 20 lbs. but I have gained that back and probably more. I am a huge carb and sweets junkie. In the past, when I was younger, I did the Body for Life Challenge and it was very successful. I went from a size 12 to a 6 without…
