[QUOTE="coby, post: 2679318, member: 258524"] Hi [USER=208503]@cdpm[/USER] ... I am a big fan of fasting! If your diet prior to a fast is carb heavy then yes, you will feel hunger, so it's best to lower carbs and start with skipping just one of your meals for a few days before attempting a fast. Or perhaps fasting for say half a day to begin with. Hunger is caused by a hormone .. think it's called grelin (someone may correct me) and if you just drink a glass of water it goes away again, but the more used to you are at fasting the less you experience hunger! I get absolutely no hunger pangs now if I fast, but the body is still being fed ... by your stored fat cells .. so hey ho! :) [/QUOTE]
