hi ,

just to let you all know I've lost 3 pounds this week by fasting but it's also time of the month ?will carry on doing it and see if the weight continues to come off.

That's great, ffionparsons, well done!

Why not join the Friday weigh-in and share the good news?

Sounds like it’s working so can’t be bad. Well done for sticking to it

I'm also intermittent fasting, and I've been doing so for about 4½ months now. I've found it very useful, and I have not noticed any differences in weight loss when I'm on my cycle (maybe I'll need to be more vigilant). But, yeah, it's great that you've lost 3lbs. Sounds good to me!

do you still keep to your calorie intake when fasting and do you fast every day or have a day off?

I wish you all the luck ffionparsons. the problem with fasting too long is that your body thinks you are starving and your metabolism goes way down. intermitten fasting is delightful. It makes me feel clean and ready to start a new day. just be careful. and congrats on the weight loss!
