LifesAStage

Hi All! I have been practicing Alternate Day Fasting since September of 2013 along with my husband. We fast on Sundays/Tuesdays/Thursdays and have an "off day" on Friday where we don't count calories. So we do the 4:3 thing. My parents and several siblings and co workers have just started after seeing how it has helped my…

Hey ya'll! Been JUDDDing for almost a year now and it's certainly how I'll live my life. Since starting and losing a bunch of weight, my husband decided to start JUDDDing as did my sister and both parents! We all find it works really well for us. BUT I've been being treated for high BP and now find my potassium level is…

Agh! The plan this week was to have my usual 3 DD's and the rest UD's but I haven't stuck to it! Going on a mini vacation this weekend and now I'm worried I'll lose control and overeat. Today, I'm determined to stick with my DD goal. Will weigh in tomorrow.

I love this thread! :) Lately, I've been struggling on my fast days, but the great thing is that with JUDDD you can just get right back into it. It's definitely how I will eat for the rest of my life :) I love that on fast days I seem to have more energy and am more productive. It's totally saved us money as well.

Hi All! Wow, what an inspiration you are, Juddding! Honestly, anytime I've needed encouragement to continue on JUDDD I would check yours or Keiras_Mom's diary out or read your statuses. It has helped me keep on track :) I lost about 23 lbs in 2013 (but gained 6 back over the holidays). I started JUDDD in early September…

Darn, I'm out :/

Yesterday, we got some Omaha Steak stuff in the mail :) Yippee! Mostly healthy foods like steaks and chicken breasts. So we'll be eating well the next week or so! Today is MY BIRTHDAY!! Last year of my 20's. I plan on sticking to my fast (today is a fast day for me) and enjoying the Shari's Berries my hubs got TOMORROW...…

Well, I can tell today is going to be hard. All four in my household are sick with the flu and that means Mom (me), also sick, will be in high demand. I tend to GAIN weight when sick (lucky me, right?) My goal is to focus on the positives so as not to get caught up in the negatives and fall into that terrible habit of…

Hi Ya'll, I had to have some unexpected surgery today and my doctors told me not to lift weights for a MONTH and to only do up to 15minutes of cardio a day at the most! Argh! So frustrating. It was on my arm so I don't understand why I have to limit cardio (all I do is the elliptical machine). Do ya'll think I should…

I just started the JUDDD diet this past week and have lost almost 4 lbs this week! Consider me a convert :) I love it.

Thanks so much for the advice, ya'll! Today is my first DD so we'll see how it goes :) I decided to start this week on low carb and see how much of a struggle it is. I love eating low carb, but the time it takes to prepare food is sometimes impractical for my schedule! Thanks again :)

Thanks for the info! Here are my stats: 5'5", 171.6lbs, 28years old, female. So you ate exactly what the calculator said for your UDs? Sounds like it has worked well for you! When did you start? When I redid the calculator with "no exercise" it came back as 378cal on DDs and 1891cal on UDs. Does that sound right? And what…

Hi All! I'm starting the JUDDD diet this Sunday. I've been researching it a bit and have found (through the calculator on the JUDDD site) that I should intake 489calories on Down Days.... but then it says normal intake to be 2443calories on Up Days. That seems REALLY high... does anyone actually eat that much on their UD?…
