Fasting Fam, I should be making better progress than I have been and I know it’s because I overeat on both my up and down days. I’m not giving up! I love this way of eating (WOE) and I am still finding out what works and doesn’t work for me. To that end, I’m going […]
Of course I’m fantasizing about Glorious Coffee and protein waffles for breakfast tomorrow, air fried cauliflower with hummus for lunch, pizza with Dad, and a freshly juiced carrot / ginger / turmeric juice for dessert. This week I have to break my ADF routine and make it a 4:3 week, for on Friday I’ll be […]
Mondays are great down days because work is always insanely busy on Monday. Today I wound up having: juice: dandelion greens, apple, ginger, fennel, celery. 239 calsskinless rotisserie chicken, plain 173 calsegg scramble: 2 eggs, 1/4 c egg whites, 2 oz diced ham, cheese slice 343 cals So yes, it was on the higher calorie […]
Fasting Fam, I had the worst night’s sleep ever. It’s 90 degrees here, I don’t have A/C, and my mind will not shut down / stop thinking about stressful family issues. I finally fell aasleep at 4am, only to be awoken by cats fighting or in heat at 5am. Sigh. I went to lunch with […]
Fasting Fam, I’m dreading letting go of my vacation time this evening and am ending my up day with a cannabis soda, Tic-Tacs, and Apple Music Chill. Tomorrow’s down day menu will be: protein coffee, tuna fish salad, and an egg scramble. I’ve really been enjoying the inexpensive Great Value electrolyte packets from Walmart while […]
Hi Fasting Family, and Happy Up Day to me! It’s been a decadent one and I’m already looking forward to tomorrow’s down day, though it could be tough because I’ll be traveling with a friend who is not at all dieting and in fact is pretty indulgent most of the time. Planning ahead is key […]
Hi Fasting Fam! The scale was kind to me this morning after an up day and today’s modified fast day went well. I thoroughly enjoyed the hot lemon pepper rotisserie chicken that came in my grocery delivery for meal 1, and meal 2 was the usual egg scramble with a cheese slice and some ham. […]
When I go to bed fasted and at some level of hungry, I get so excited about eating the next day and dream of all the yummy noms I’ll get to have when I wake up. However, when morning comes that desire for food has more often than not vanished and food seems less interesting […]
Fasting Fam, Happy Sunday Night! I quit eating around 6:45 pm tonite and am sipping on a delicious cranberry spice herbal tea that reminds me of Christmas 🎄 and am listening to Soulection Radio on Apple Music while I wind down for the night and prepare mentally for the week ahead. Tomorrow, Monday, I will […]
Fasting Fam, it’s taken me a while to get back on the fasting track, and today I had a great modified fast day! A new game changer for me is the Better than Bouillon seasoning paste – it dissolves so easily and has the perfect taste for a simple sipping broth that I’ve been savoring […]
Good morning, Fasting Fam! I weighed in at 219 this morning (started this journey at 224) With consistency I expect to be back in Onederland by the end of May. Yesterday the Harmony House dehydrated vegetable soup mix arrived and I enjoyed some after my dance workout last night. I didn’t realize it came unseasoned […]
Hi Fasting Fam! Today is my 58th birthday, and it was a day like any other. It was sunny and beautiful outside and my workout partner and I hiked up Mt. Tabor after work, and that was truly magical. My first down day meal of the day was delicious: My next fast day meal, as […]
