Tbh Terry, im doing that most days, rarely ever eat after 7.30pm and never before 9am. So maybe i should think of going to 10am and then build up longer fasting times depending on how that goes?If you want to give fasting a try Barbara you could start off with 12 hour fasts, Say start at 20.00 till 08.00 (you will be in bed most of the time). Give it a try it and see how it goes.
Sounds like a good idea. I don’t eat before lunch and sometimes not until dinner. It takes a while to get used to but after a few weeks you don’t really notice. I just start the day with a tea or coffee (or three) and go from there.
Thank you so much, I feel the best strategy for me is kind of sneaking up on myself with things. If I make a big declaration of what I'm going to do and how I'm going to do it, it often leads to failure because I set the bar too high and become discouraged. This way, I'm being pretty strict on the calories, watching and avoiding carbs and then maybe sneaking in a bit of intermmitant fasting; so I'll see how it goes, without piling too much pressure on.
I did Debs, down to 52! So pleased.You have done so well. Taking the bull by the horns and giving it a good old shake. Knocking it out by the sounds of things. Well done. Hope you got great results
Thanks Terry, I'm thrilled tbh. I'm just going to keep going, it's working and I'm so relieved to have got such an improvement in such a short time. I self monitor but won't have another HbA1c for a year, so will just be delighted to see my daily numbers drop and hope very much to be under the magic 48 in a years time!Fantastic achievement @Barbara great numbers and well done.
it's going in exactly the direction you want it to. Fantastic. Well done.
