I’m surprised by how many people are honestly afraid of being hungry.

I was told by my nutritionist lady that I would lose 2.5 lbs a week - that was bang on! Let’s just assume that most people know what the results of caloric maintenance and deficit will be. I’m just saying that fasting is a very easy way to achieve either.

Fasting is easy and awesome. While a year on a Keto diet worked exactly as advertised (-50lbs) I refuse to burn any more time or money on elaborate meal plans, shopping, recipes & exercise regimens.

I'd be dead by now at 800 calories a day! I'm at a deficit (1200-1300 calories) 5 days a week. Weekends I take on about 2000 calories (maintenance cals). I do not binge eat like I used to. If I'm working out, running the dog or competing with the horses I'll eat lots more.

Thanks! I will give Slender Blend a try. The Vega shakes are good...but I'm always game for something new.

Breakfast - coffee. Lunch - coffee.
