On a mission

Need to loose the last five pounds of my 2 stone target before my Sons Wedding in July.

Having fought breast cancer over the last few years my weight gaining cancer drugs have been quite a challenge but I’m not going to let them beat me.

Fantastic you for fighting the big C. You must be one strong person! I hope you have a lovely day for your Son's wedding.

My advice to you is to think what the main roadblock for you at the moment is. Personally for me, it was that fact that I would binge. I ate in secret and I ate a lot on secret. One day I realised enough was enough, had to admit to myself that this was an issue and I wouldn't do it anymore. I still eat treats and 'unhealthy' food at times, but never in secret and never now do I binge. Those days are gone.

Try to think what it is about your eating habits you would most like to change and work on one thing at a time. Maybe you want to work on snacking, maybe portion sizes, maybe eating more fruit and veg, maybe cooking more from scratch etc etc....

Hi, MerylCharles64 , Welcome.

There are a few posts on the Fasting and Furious forum about Fasting for cancer... but especially this one about a video I found yesterday:

(Intermittent) Fasting (and the Low-Carbohydrate, High-Fat diet) are also excellent for losing weight, and, specifically, for getting off weight-loss plateaux.

Not what you're looking for?
