As I said in section 1 most people really thought I was crazy.. My dad more than anyone, is stuck in his way of thinking. “Fasting is only starving yourself”. If you look at the deffinition starving is having no choice about eating, fasting is not eating or drinking by choice.
I decided to show him that i could do it. The thing to remember is people are fasting every single day over the many sea’s of the world. It has great positive effects like:-
Increasing Insulin Sensitivity
More Control over your mind
Clarity
Weight Loss
Will power increases
Clearer Skin
Better Immune System
Increased hGh release – (I learn’t that from Eat Stop Eat – There is a link on the right of the page somewhere)
I managed to complete the detox all 7 days. I was over the moon and nearly at Saturn that is how great I felt. 2 weeks went by and I went back to my normal 3 meals a day. I really disliked it and started putting weight on again not as much to be fair. So if you are just wanting to do a short fast I do recommend this to heal your body and reset your stomach. By doing this you start to get a bit more familiar with what hunger is. As we seem to forget that a KFC commercial does not really mean you are hungry haha. (off the point the colour orange is surpose to make you hungry. Go figure.)
I decided I disliked breakfast the old notion of eat your breakfast or you will not be able to concentrate is rubbish. It may be different in children who are growing but even then I think some more research is needed.
I replaced breakfast with a black coffee and some specific vitamins. I felt much better in the mornings. I chucked in some Lemon water and Green Tea and stopped eating lunch. Like that. Very little hunger pains. The only hunger I started to have was about 1pm when I was used to lunch and so I just held off until 5pm and as I trained my body this died down as it new it would be fet at 5pm. Just like when you train a cat to when it is fed and it is always there on time. That was my hunger.
I was on my way to a better body and better health. I can honestly say I am 25 days in to it now and I feel great. I have learnt some great tricks to help out and I will pop these in another blog post. If you want to learn more about IF(that’s what the cool kids call it) Check out the Eat Stop Eat link in the links to the right. It is a great book!
Also comment on any of the blogs and I will answer your questions !
Remember 99% of diets will work if you buy in to them. If you plan to do it for 3 weeks then stop it won’t. You must create a lifestyle. Your Lifestyle can change but you have to be committed. Fasting works for me as It does not bother me to eat breakfast or lunch. It means I can spend my lunch hour reading a book and learning which is much more rewarding. I also can sleep in for 15 minutes longer as I do not have to make breakfast or lunch.
