Me, Myself & I... Lower carb, fasting, real live foods

Ah ok! I was just checking everyone hasn't lost nearly a stone in the first week haha!

Do you think your making it too complicated with all the rules your following?!

Can't you just take it back to the basics of 5:2 an just focus on cc. I think perhaps combining all the plans your trying to may w counter productive - it's just a theory though xx

Sounds like you had an excellent day yesterday - well done.

Intermittent Fasting is part of primal/ paleo eating anyway just not tried it before now as was not sure how to do "it" lol

I also feel much better since cutting wheat,plus most grains and legumes etc out.. Also last time I ate wheat I felt really sick with tummy ache ended up vomiting - so really don't want to feel like that again!! So anytime I think mmmm I want to eat an apple turn over - I remember how ill I was

No that's fair enough I would just find the added restriction harder but you've clearly looked into it

Didn't you go to KFC yesterday?! Can you not retrain your family to avoid those places! I'm sure it'll make you life sooooo much easier! It must be so much harder having to go into places like that! Xx

Normally "when" we go I just have hot wings no chips and water - yesterday I wanted to overload on carbs - the week/ 10 days before my period I suffer bad carb cravings - not sugar so much just potatoes/ hot chips with added salt (lots of salt!) lol

So 1/2 the month I have control - just like today mcDs just had salad no chips - then later as was with OH who treated us to a meal out - I shared with my kids lol 2 small sausages (kids ate 1 each) and small spoon of mash ., my day has been light eating - have done 2 fasts this week - need a light day/ fast day today because of how much I ate yesterday feel better carb cravings wise tho - which I count as good !
