Fasting Rocks
Thanks hun, that's really encouraged me. I've never felt so low about my weight before, its taking over my whole life. Sorry to be so depressing on your diary! Can I just ask whether you exercised at all? I hate it and would rather start with walking. Also I've set my calorie allowance for up days to maintaining my current weight (something called bmr? Not sure what that all means), it's about 2430cals, is that what u should stick to? Thanks again!!
Up until very recently I never exercised at all. Even now I've only incorporated walking and a weighted hula hoop. The weight I've lost was without exercise and being a couch potato!! I didn't really do my calories on a daily basis and instead used a weekly pot of calories. I tried to make sure I ate the minimum amount my body needed to exist which was around 1600 to 1700 a day at the beginning and lowered it to around 1500 before I stopped counting calories. So I did 7 x 1700 = 11,900 and that gave me my weekly calories. Took 3 x 500 off for fast days and used the rest on UDs. Generally I used more calories on a Saturday and Sunday UDs than the ones through the week. So I didn't have the same amount of calories all UDs some were lower some were higher but it all evened out over the week. I think once you get started you will feel a whole lot better about things as then you will know you are actually doing something about what is making you unhappy xx
