Hi!

I'm thrilled to be joining you folks. I'm one week in to a 5:2. I love fasting (always have!), and feeling great. I had a baby 7 months ago and can't shake the 25 extra pounds.

I plan to eat well most non-fast days, with occasional splurges. I have a terrible time finding time to exercise though. Do you think I will lose weight? Many folks imply that IF is only good for maintenance. I'll try to do some body weight strength work at least 2-3 times a week.

What do you folks think of doing 19/5 on top of the 5:2? I have to get the scale to move and it just won't, despite some real improvements in portion control! I know my set point is now 173 and my body will do anything to stay there.

Thanks in advance for your support.

Hey everyone! This is my 4th day trying out the IF 8/16 (or is it 16/8???) deal. I have been eating from 11am - 7pm, though twice I have actually been done before 6pm. My mornings are easier and so far I have not found that I eat that much more or less.I generally keep my calories between 1,500-1,800, with an occasional day up to 2,000, and I watch my carbs, esp grains and sugar, and I have lost 34 pounds since February. I have been following the Beck principles since the spring and eating mindfully has been a huge plus for me! But I felt like I needed something more as I get into the busier holiday season.

I have been surprised that I am not that hungry in the mornings. I don't know how I would feel if I did a lot of cardio before eating, but I am ok with bodyweight/light (8lb) weights things I do in the am.

This thread has really been very helpful - all the different approaches seem confusing, but I get that everyone is different and that this is not an exact science. I plan to give it two weeks and then see how I feel and whether I think I can keep it up over the holidays.
