Ginger Girl- I'm up to week 5 on this diet. I found so much info' on diets, and tried lots of smaller meals, etc. This may not be for for everybody- like everything it's a case of try and see. Luckily, my partner is a nurse and uni' lectures nursing. Together we have been trying different eating patterns for me. I usually eat really well, lots of fresh fruit and veg', etc. I don't like packaged nasties.
Results so far- pretty happy with it. It's not really like fasting in the "starving yourself" sense- really for me it's like going without lunch twice a week and making sure of two 300cal meals in that day. Some people will have difficulty if their body can't deal with high fibre, etc.
My breakfast today was a poached chicken and sliced egg salad with loads of greens and tomato, touch of balsamic and olive oil. I tend to drink a lot of water and weak tea or chicken broth that I'v poached the chicken in.
I actually feel good on it- maybe it's just giving the gut a rest for that period from dinner last night to breakfast a day and a half later.
Like I say- you can only try these things- if they are beneficial, keep it up,- if it is doing you harm, stop it.
