[QUOTE="BoggyBimbleJr, post: 1387627, member: 375981"] I've been doing 23:1 on a LCHF diet for over a month now (diagnosed T2 in January) and I'm about to start a 5 day fast next Monday. I've noticed that I don't feel hungry at all during the day because I'm not eating any carbs. Sometimes when it gets to the time I usually have my evening meal I decide not to bother and leave it until the next evening, so I'm thinking the 5 day fast shouldn't be too hard. I tried one last year before I was diagnosed and when I was eating a very high carb diet, but I gave up after 48 hours of absolute agony by having a a couple of takeaway pizzas followed by a lot of chocolate and beer, thus wasting the previous two days. At least that won't happen this time. I did lose about two and a half stones at the beginning of last year doing a type of intermittent fasting (4:3 - 6pm to 6pm Monday, Wednesday & Friday) over ten weeks, but then I got fed up with it and over the next six months put it all back on again, especially when the supermarkets started selling cut price tubs of chocolates. I've got over eight stones to lose now and since being diagnosed I've lost over one stone on the LCHF diet, so hopefully by the end of February I'll have lost another and I can keep going until I get to about twelve stones (the nurse says I should be fourteen stones nut I'm going to aim for twelve).
