I find that it is better never to bring up my eating, diet....or anything around others. I talk about other things....then if they ask me, I tell them why I do it.

I really like the "Fast 5" plan, which is a free e-book online, written by an MD, outlines reasons for IF, benefits and how to gradually work into this plan. Sometimes people can't just start it cold turkey and there may be an adjustment phase, especially if you are used to eating every 3 hrs or so. Anyway....if…

Romyarts--sounds like you are off to a great start. A big plus of IF to me is learning that it's ok for my stomach to be empty.

I just started fast 5 too...and love it! So simple...nothing to guess, and I can eat whatever I want during the eating window. How much are you losing a week on it?

I just read the free fast 5 e-book online (which was great!) and started 4 days ago....am down 3 lbs in 4 days, but I imagine that kind of loss won't keep up. Feeling less hungry overall.

I just completed the Beachbody 21 day reset program. It was suppose to reset my metabolism and jumpstart my healthy eating and it helped SO much. For 21 days, I ate nothing but super healthy food....detox is part of the program. I believe this is going to be a changing point for me. My daughter also did the program...and…

Keep going! I was almost the same weight and height as you and am losing 2 lbs per week. It may not be as fast as a liquid protein diet but if you count EVERY calorie and keep it to 1200 per day...you will have guaranteed weight loss 100%. Also...I had been weighing about every other day....and since have stopped that…
