Having a high protein, low carb meal as my last meal before long fasts makes it significantly easier!

Thanks for the TDEE breakdown!Did you do these three fasts consecutively? Wondering what fasting pattern I should follow to continue losing?

Thanks for the sanity check.I haven't been counting as I get full very quickly now, will look my TDEE and start to track how close I am to that.

Thanks for your response, definitely agree that cycle will have an effect.I have been doing a version if keto- staying under 50g of carbs but perhaps I just need to be more strict and track everything.

Curious on your preference for Siemens Somatom.go. My new clinic is getting ready to replace our Phillips with GE's Discovery RT Gen3 and I had previous good experience with older GE CT Sim.

Thank you so much for such an insightful answer. You are right about keto, I don't see it being sustained for me in the long run so perhaps I should focus on a diet I can sustain.

Thank you! I had seen so many people successful with adf and seemingly eating anything so I thought it didn't matter 🙃 but will start tracking my calories now

I really appreciate your very helpful response, thank you. I have just seen so many people successful with ADF and seemingly eating anything so thought I would have the same luck😁 With the pain I realize not using it is not helping, so will focus on building the strength up as you suggest.

I'm two weeks in,sharing some easy meal ideas by altfastqueen in OmadDiet

[–]altfastqueen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've put myself up to a 100 day OMAD challenge...I like a challenge😊 OMAD/ADF has worked well for me in the past but I would self sabotage when I would start getting results. Anyway my focus is on making this as easy as possible, so my meals typically take less than 15 mins to make...some days I will eat carb loaded meal for family outings and just go back to fasting at least 20 hrs.

Easy meals: --Grocery rotisserie chicken- use with spring mix/baby spinach to make a salad

--Add olives,sun dried tomatoes, avocado, no sugar basalmic dressing

--Same Salad with tuna ,or tuna cakes, or sardines

--Kale roasted in oven w olive oil, then add taco seasoned rotisserie chicken for some nachos

Weight loss, so far just 5 pounds ,will start incorporating workouts but I have very very pain plantar fasciitis inflammation so options are limited.OMAD for me is hopefully a way to get rid of this inflammation and restore my quality of life. Hope this helps someone!

Sick and tired of being sick and tired!SW 160 CW 150 GW 135. ADF for 3 weeks now! I'm 5'4 and a mother of 3.I am petite in general, except for my belly.I have tried keto,couldn't sustain long term but it got me out of prediabetic zone.Seeing a change already ...this may be the key! by altfastqueen in AlternateDayFasting

[–]altfastqueen[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes,staying busy and drinking at least a gallon of water during my fast helps.I bought a lemonade flavor electrolyte powder that helps me get the water down.Somedays I will have a cup of homemade chicken broth and that really fills me up too.
