Yeah you’re right the hunger comes in waves and waves. This morning has been far easier than any stage yesterday. I found myself going to fridge , opening it and just looking in and then remembering. There was obviously various triggers throughout the day that made me think of food and then of course everything starts reminding you of food. People on TV eating food etc. But I feel absolutely great today after feeling like shit last night. Full of energy. Eyes don’t feel heavy like they have over last couple of months.
I have a veg soup here ready to go and a chicken salad so nothing too drastic.
The clarity from fasting is addictive. I’d do 16 hours most week days.
I never eat till 1pm. I do 2 x 90 minute blocks of work prior to 1pm in a fasted state and that 3 hours is more productive than 7 hours of the fella who is grazing away on cheap carbs ands seed oils. cc @Mac
You are have just started on a very rewarding and successful journey. I wish you well but I know you don’t need it.
Thanks pal. I can see how it is addictive. I will tinker around with different intervals or durations and hopefully land on one that suits or is repeatable. I have read a bit about the 16:8 and it sounds doable with a bit of organisation. Went with 40 hours to kick start it and I’ll see where that takes me.
My diet has never been better. Ateing more protein than I’ve ever had before and a grand healthy balance of good carbs. I’ll have a body like Carl Froch by the end of the year
Yeah it wasn’t the sleep itself it was more getting to sleep really. But woke up feeling energetic as opposed to sleep depraved. That is definitely an area I hope to see some benefit in.
