Hi everyone, I’m Lou and I have fasted quite a bit. I have used it to maintain weight, but have fallen off the wagon recently and found it hard to get back on. When fasting, I also exercise and am healthy and comfortable in my ever changing skin. When not, the opposite. I want to feel healthy again, to enjoy my own skin and get out there and exercise.
Today is day one. We are in lockdown, but I allowed to go for a walk, so will take the dogs out for a 1.5 hour walk today. I am self employed, so until the government tell the country how we are going to be supported, I have very little money. No food and drink during my fast will help my financial health alongside my physical and mental health.
My main struggle is a glass (bottle) of wine, or a few Gins. When I drink, I eat.
When I start a fast, I always have very little sleep for the first few days, as no sleep and less activity. I always feel better when I get to day four.
I’m not weighing myself atm, as it depresses me at the beginning of a fast.
Here goes, keep your fingers crossed that the wine devil doesn’t win the conversation today.
