[QUOTE="Borzoi, post: 1041930, member: 254256"] Hey Marfat, thanks for the kind words. Here's my routine schedule- it usually goes as follows: [LIST] [*][COLOR=#00b359]9am[/COLOR]- Glass of water or coffee/tea, supplements [*][COLOR=#ffa64d]10am[/COLOR] - Shake [*][COLOR=#0000b3]12pm[/COLOR] - Salad [*][COLOR=#ffa64d]2pm[/COLOR] - Shake #2 [*][COLOR=#0000b3]4pm[/COLOR] - Veggie stick snack [*][COLOR=#00b359]5pm[/COLOR] - Metformin 500 mg [*][COLOR=#0000b3]6pm[/COLOR] - Salad [*][COLOR=#b30000]6:30pm - Walk dog (20-30 min)[/COLOR] [*][COLOR=#0000b3]8pm[/COLOR] - Cooked hot meal (Eg. sauteed zucchini/roasted cauliflower) [*][COLOR=#00b359]9pm[/COLOR] - Calorie free drink or flavored water [/LIST] So the key is to have a continuous succession of small meals in small increments to remain somewhat sated. This diet is suicide if you try to use a 3 meal format. You'll be miserable and will experience wild fluctuations in your mood and energy. Small meals throughout the day will keep you going and the energy levels somewhat stable. 21 days in I've realized every 2 hours tends to be the sweet spot for myself, although it will probably vary depending on your age, health, etc. I also try to alternate between shakes and solid food, just to keep things varied. Never the same meal twice. I try to end each night with a 'sweet' beverage because it tends to trick the body into thinking food intake is over (The 'dessert' response). As for exercise I've really had to cut back..This diet simply does not afford you a lot of energy to expend so keep it very light. I just walk my dog a few times a week at a slow pace because I don't have the energy reserves to do anything more intense than that. The diet really does 95% of the work with this approach it seems.
