My ADF Daily Journal

— DAY 1 —

I had originally planned to get a composition notebook and write in it every day, and I still may decide to do that, but I’m going to try out writing here for a bit.

Today is day one of ADF. I started my fast yesterday, Saturday night, and have successfully made it to bedtime, and am excited for a refuel day tomorrow. The hardest times of day for me today were when my family was eating dinner, and in the afternoon when I started feeling a little tired.

I have a tendency to rethink and question myself, trying to find the best option, but I need to remind myself to just stick to the decision I made. That will go further in the long run than changing my mind all the time and making no progress.

Good idea!! Your story will be very interesting. I’ll be reading it, for sure.

Great!!! Yes just stick to it and see it out until the end and in 30-60-90 days you can re-evaluate!!! Usually we change decisions before we see results!!! Patience is our weakness!!

— DAY 2 —

I didn’t write anything yesterday, but it was a good day overall. It was a “refuel” day, and I didn’t make the best food choices, but also not the worst. I mostly just tried to pay attention to how I felt, and how what I ate made me feel. By the end of the day I was pretty excited for a fast day!

I started one myself this time. Stuck it behind the toilet but may move it to the wall in front of the toilet so I’m looking at it more

Tracking every day. Doing OMAD so I can really track my intake. And then posting here too once a day. Wanting to reach goal by the end of this year. That is my target. That’s less than 10lbs a month. I just keep picturing myself in December 23’ and I look great!
