Week 7

Was very naughty with food last week to be honest. I think i have got to the point that this water fasting and weight loss is so easy that i know i can cheat alittle and catch up after. But this week I won't be going there again, and will be trying to up the game to stop myself getting bored/complacent or cheating.

Week 6

Still going. Tending to follow a water fasting during the week and eating during the weekend. It will make my goals take longer, but i'm comfortable with it at the moment. To combat the fatigue that can happen with fasting, i have found coconut water to be amazing. Just one carton in the morning does me great. I am drinking it without any bits it while fasting. It keeps me feeling hydrated and stops my muscles aching.

Week 5

Getting a little silly counting in days now. So have moved onto weeks. I ate this weekend. I was in London getting my nerd on at the London film and comic con, so i wanted a good lot of energy to get me around it all with no burn out. I do believe i made good choices with my food though, and even when i ate out stayed away from the usual suspects.
So back to water today. Once you get into fasting, get over the first hurdles, and understand the way it works it becomes a very easy and cheap way to loose some weight. Please though ONLY do it if you have fat stores to use up or it is not fasting but instead starvation. If you have no fat stores then try detoxing with juice.

Day 30

So so knackered. I know this is because i am not drinking enough water. But i have just drank so so much. it's really not appealing now. other than completely knackered, i'm ok. I hope i can get over this as i was feeling great.

Day 28

Been losing 3lb a day the past few days, more than the average weekly loss at weight watchers!! If i lose another 3lb tomorrow, that's two stone down. Still feeling good, and feeling quite energetic, been doing lots of gardening. I tire out quickly though, but my body is getting used to a new fuel. I am looking forward to some flavour. Coping ok with cooking their meals because i am enjoying the smells of food, and it's keeping me sane.

There are four parts to this video, if you are interested in water fasting, it's definitely worth a watch.

Day 27

Still feeling great, and having an easy time with this fast, so really not much to report. Going to get some time out in the garden soon, i have some weeds to pull, and i am not being bothered too much with fatigue or other symptoms. On a huge plus my weight is down by at least 22lb, and holding the tape measure around my waist at the size i used to be is quite a shocker.

Day 26

Hunger all stopped yesterday which is about right for a fast. Still feeling good with just the head ache starting as i go to bed. Feeling quite emotional, and very irritated. Irritation over even the smallest things. But i know this normal for fasting. Yesterday and so far today seem 100% easier. Was jealous of their meal last night because it had sweet potato and i have been craving that. But i felt no need to eat it. Body is getting tired quickly while i am doing things, but that is just the switch to a different fuel. Tongue scrapper still my best friend. If fasting carries on as easy as today, i could continue for a good length of time.
