  • That's why I was reluctant to cut them out; I know once I get down to my goal and start eating for maintenance, I'd hate not to be able to have my favourite foods for fear of all the weight coming back. I'll definitely look into substitutes though, and try to fit them in if I can. Thanks for the suggestion!
  • I've just started on this diet too, tomorrow is my first fast day and I'm planning on a small bowl of cereal in the morning and a tuna cous-cous salad in the evening. What did you eat for your light breakfast? If it was just a piece of fruit or something like that I can see why you'd get hungry quickly.

  • 60lbs lost, I've gone from a size 16 to a 12. Trying to get to a 10 but I carry a lot of weight on my hips/thighs :(
  • Thanks so much! :)
  • Brilliant, that's what I'm hoping it'll do for me. I'm probably still cutting it short on the calories but putting in a few treats once a week might help even that out.
  • But would cycling the amount of calories I eat per day not help break through the plateau also? The only thing I could think to do to add more calories would be to add more meat to my evening meals, but I already make sure to regularly eat a lot of chicken/fish. I never feel hungry/tired which is why I've not felt the need…
