Jaks the Alternate Day Fasting is going good. On the feast day I eat in an eight hour window usually between 2pm and 10pm then on fasting day I have my food at about 7pm I have lost about 8lbs

Another update after fasting (5:2 style ) yesterday, I woke up hungry and knew I would be waiting until 14:00 before I could eat again and then fast again tomorrow. I think I will stop my version of the EOD diet and eat normally on a feast day. I have to say I did feel a bit better after eating, even though I have now lost nearly a stone, I have done my usual, all or nothing and most times it was nothing. Alternative fasting is easy if you eat on feast days as you are meant too.

right, I think I'm going to have a crack at this. I'm planning to fast on Tuesdays and Thursdays as this has the best fit with work/uni. Wish me luck

Good luck! I haven't been regularly fasting for a month or two now, with marathon coming up, and with new working pattern sometimes meaning I do 'mini-fasts' (i.e. too busy to even think about tea)!

Good luck Susiesue - you will get used to it, so stick with it!
I'm sticking with the 6:1 and have been for a while now - it seems to work quite well as a maintenance strategy for staying somewhere around my ideal racing weight! Fasting on a Monday hasn't got any more enjoyable, but I have got used to it now and sometimes it feels almost like a relief to be fasting after a weekend of pigging out!

so far so, erm, tolerable! I green veg & fruit smoothie for breakfast and a snack of almonds & dried fruit for later. Much tea and water being consumed to keep me occupied
