I just joined this support group after I read the book today. It's so great to be here and I've enjoyed reading the posts. After reading Bert Herring's plan I...
Naomi- Welcome!! I break my fast each day with peanuts and a banana. I sometimes add cheese and fruit. I find that it helps curb my insatiable break fast...
Welcome, Naomi! I'm fortunate in that I am home all day so what I break my fast with is easy. But for you to be away from kitchen facilities AND heading to the...
Welcome! I work at home now, which makes life easier. But in days past I was on the road mostly. Fast food never did get along with me, so I got creative. What...
Thanks for the welcome and tips Elizabeth and Karen! Well, today was day#1 and I made it until 3:30 pm. I must say I didn't break my fast too well...I was SO...
Hello just wanted to introduce my self. I am 40, from Australia and a mother of 3. I haven't tried this way of eating yet but I think it will suit me, as i...
Naomi, Hard days in the beginning! YES!!!!!! I break my fast at 4pm (sometimes 3pm). I cannot make it to 5pm. I ate like a mad woman in the early days. Fast...
Thanks so much for sharing your experiences and for the encouraging words Elizabeth! Yesterday, since I started eating at 3:30 I stopped eating at 8:30. I...
Thanks for these great break-fast ideas Heather! I love apples and peanut butter (I grew up eating them, too!) and I'm used to eating natural peanut butter (no...
Hi and welcome Shona! I'm also new, but so far I'm very happy eating this way. I'm on day 2 and I broke my fast at 3:30 on day 1 and 4:00 on day 2. I was...
I don't think there is any magic with the time you break your fast. There have been some days that I am very hungry at 1100 a.m. so I break it then with a...
Naomi I have only consistently Fast5'd the past week or so (I felt I had better results weight training when i did not fast) and I found today being one of the...
Dear MJ: You inspire me. Elizabeth ... From: Mary Jeanette Mannino <mjm1@...> Sent: Sunday, January 04, 2009 8:15 PM To: fast5@yahoogroups.com Subject: Re:...
Welcome, Shona! I cannot say I am low carb but you might just want to see how you are eating 'regularly' first... I've been fast-5-ing for about 10 days, not...
Naomi - it is indeed difficult in the beginning!! not only is your tummy used to you feeding it all day long, but what in the world do you do all day if you're...
Hi Naomi, thanks for the encouragement. I too work at a school as a Teacher Aide so I am thinking that when I go back to work.....we are currently on Summer...
Thanks for the welcome. Your right probably just the sheer amount of food I was consuming was enough to cloud my mind. Shona Australia ... are eating...
Today I made it until 4.30 before breaking my fast. I listened to my body and I didn't feel hunger pangs until 4.30. Not too bad for my first day. Now it is...
Shona from what I hear, that is to be expected: to overeat in the beginning. but then it settles down. it has for me. the last few days, I have had to make...
Heather I know you've shared this list a couple of times and now, of course, that i want to find it to share it w/my sister, i can't find it... i think you'd...
The list I shared was from the Warrior Diet, which is a book. But it's also how I tend to eat, which is probably why I liked it. 1. Salad (greens, vinegar,...
Laura, Thanks for these tips! I like the idea of hot lemon water. I've been drinking an herbal tea, too (a pomegranite raspberry green tea), and much more...
You can do it Shona! Great job making it to 3:30 on Day1! I've chosen 4-9pm as my fast5 eating time. So far that's working really well. Today is day 4 and I...
Congratulations on your weight loss MJ! Also, I've read a bit about calorie restriction (and short fasts like what we're doing) being good for longevity, too....
Hi Naomi, Well day three sucked. I got to 12.30 am broke my fast with MacDonalds. Anyway not to let it get me down, counted up the calories and found that in...
Hey Naomi! I'm getting back on track with fast 5, I'm well into my 2nd week and as of this morning, 10 pounds down! Mind you, I have 50 to lose (40 now!) so I...
Shona, I like what MJ said about her approach to Fast5. She said that when she had a day that she was only able to make it to (say 12:30), then she decided to...
