[QUOTE="hankjam, post: 1792151, member: 104954"] I've read a number of the fasting threads and the recent one by [USER=219467]@bulkbiker[/USER] gave me a push to give it ago. My BMI is at 22 and I feel I don't have much more weight to lose but I've often wondered what effect some form of fasting would have on my FBG and weight, both of which have been a little variable and high. So last week I replaced lunch with a cup of hot Marmite, threw out my walnuts (raided too often) and did not "snack" when having a black coffee (sq of 85% or cheese) or preparing son's breakfast. In a nutshell: Week 19 FBG 5.4 72.0 kg Week 20 FBG 5.4 72.5 kg Week 21 FBG 4.4 70.0 kg Never felt hungry. Mrs Hj commented this morning when I was getting on the scales.... "Even for you, you're looking a bit thin"! Only downside: only two dumps in the whole week and one was a bit of an effort. Amazing what missing lunch can do. [/QUOTE]
