Hi Tei,
Thanks for the message. Let’s do it together. I am on day one and have started ok, a bit of a headache, but pleased the first day is over.
How about you?

Day 1 Journal
I would like to get down to my healthy goal weight.
I am doing water fasting as it helps me feel like I am in control.
My short term goal is to lose weight before the festive period.
My long term goal is to reach a healthy BMI and weight.
I struggle with stress eating, eating to change they way I feel and boredom. I always give up when trying to change my habits around food. I start off ok, but fail to stick to the well known diet plans. I am hoping water fasting will give me the flexibility to achieve my goals.
Game plan is to reach 7 days of water fasting and then to look at 5/2 (fast/eat). I may try a longer fast if I am feeling ok on day 7.
Right now I am feeling happy that day one is over, but had a headache which is easing. Just had a salt shot and its improving.
When i achieve my goal I will feel happy and confident.
Affirmation - Day 1 = “I am strong, capable and ready to make the changes needed to lose weight for good and reach my goal weight”.

Hi Tei,
I have just completed day 13 and I am looking to keep going to reach 21 days. How are you progressing?

Miramar · September 17, 2020, 10:48am

13 days? Look at you creeping in the side door! Go go go!

How much weight to go for your longer goal?

letty · September 23, 2020, 8:07pm

Hi Miramar,

Just completed day 20, but I have a very long way to go. I am looking at 28 days if I can, then OMAD for a while. How about you?

Miramar · September 24, 2020, 12:29am

I’m in a challenge to get 50 fasting days done during the next 90.

Not all in a row, mixing up 36’s, 48’s, 60’s, 72’s.

I have a goal by winter solstice I’m pushing for to leave me my last 10 lbs to lose.
