Hello. I started last week and I'm taking it very slowly. I tried to go to noon and I'm working on going to 3:30pm. Baby steps. I'm drinking a lot of herbal...
welcome to the group! 5 pm is not a magical time. you could have your window from 3 pm to 8 pm. 5 to 10 pm is too late for me as I like to have several hours...
Are we restricted to one main meal on FAST-5? Are snacks allowed within the 5 hour window? Is it possible to go into "starvation mode" by eating too few...
Is there any truth to "going into starvation mode" if we don't keep our calories within a certain level? For my height, weight & age, I probably should be...
... I don't recall the "official" rules for one vs. more meals ... technically as long as you eat within a 5-hour window it should be ok, but most people find...
... Fast-5 changes how your appetite works, and, from my experience, makes your WAY more sensitive to your body's signals. Now, if you are overweight, you have...
Hi, sorry if this is a repetitive question, but I searched the forum and couldn't find the answer. If I take weekends off Fast-5, will the weight loss still...
Yes, my wife took weekends off but also had a very active workday that had her on her feet almost all the time, climbing stairs frequently and walking the...
The one meal refers to how most people approach eating when they're practicing a Fast-5 way of eating or lifestyle. Most have one meal during the window, and...
Hello; I'm new to this group, but not new to Fast 5. I was surfing the posts and got the impression from some of the discussions that there is a section of...
Thank you Bert! That answers my question. I can't exercise much-- I have a chronic pain problem in my ankle that makes it difficult to stand. When I get the...
Why do you fast in the morning hours? Wouldn't it be just as effective to fast after lunch? I mean use the same 19 hours in the evening instead of the morning...
... The book covers a lot of that. But basically, you COULD have your 5 hours in the AM and still do fast 5. The problems as I see it are that your body has to...
Joanne, Please see the website (also in the "Links" section): http://www.fast-5.com. The summary is that lumping all of the day's calorie consumption within a...
"I know there's so much data on breakfast being the most important part of the day..." There isn't really so much data. If one starts digging into where that ...
I've been on the fast-5 for 5 weeks now with great success. I actually started it before I knew it had a name :) My original goal was to fast until noon,...
Heather.. when you say "cure that"... do you mean the mood swings or the gluten intolerance or both?? I am gluten intolerant and as just curios. I just...
... I don't think gluten intolerance is "curable" ... I've researched it for years, and I think you can lose the symptoms if you stay really GF for several...
Hi Heather If no one objects, could you share your recipes for the rice cream, and the one made with custard, too? It sounds really good. -- Best Regards, ...
Heather... Thanks for the info!! I was diag with gluten intolerance about five years ago. I think I am celiac, but I was never tested. I have many health...

Hello! If someone is already following a ketogenic diet, can they expect similar results? Improved results? Since the first two weeks of Fast5 are to burn...
Well, my main reason for trying it initially was to control hunger. I had gotten to the point (after being on a couple of 5 meal a day programs, which DID ...
The ice cream recipe came with our ice cream maker, but it it very similar to ones in the really old cookbooks. Basically it just uses a LOT of egg yolks. This...
I think it helps to have a routine where you eat the "best" stuff first. My routine (stolen from "The Warrior Diet", another take on IF) is to eat a salad...
