[QUOTE="Goonergal, post: 1610183, member: 368709"] Hi [USER=41816]@Brunneria[/USER] Thanks for asking. It was 2 weeks of 24 hour fasting - dinner to dinner. Although I’m within range of my initial target weight (2.8 kg to go), I’m still carrying a lot of weight around my middle, so this was an attempt to boost weight loss and see the impact on blood glucose levels of a longer period of intermittent fasting (I always skip breakfast and generally do a dinner to dinner fast 2-3 times a week). It wasn’t overly difficult - there were a couple of days where I got really hungry, including yesterday, the final day. I actually changed my meal plan yesterday as I didn’t think the meal I’d planned would do the job, but managed to stick to the one meal. Have now done a bit of analysis (comparing to the previous 2 weeks): Average blood glucose levels during the past two weeks were 4.8, compared to 5.0 in the previous 2 weeks. Weight loss was 1.8kg during the past two weeks, compared to 1.2kg in the previous 2 weeks. However, most of those changes occurred in the second week - average blood glucose the past week was 4.6 and weight loss last week 1.4kg. So nothing dramatic but definitely an effect and worth trying again. Now back to my usual regime, starting with a couple of days of eating lunch and dinner! Think I will also post the results in the fasting forum - if that doesn’t count as duplicate posting. [/QUOTE]
