Hey guys!
So I just ended my fast today after about 5.75 days (the world cup tided me over the .75 haha) and as of this morning I have lost 8 lbs! I now weigh 207.4!!! Yay! Oh but to clarify when I started the fast I was 214.8 lbs, but I got my hair redone. So my original hair weighed only .4 lbs but my new hair weighs 1 lb!! So I'm really .6 less than what the scale shows.
Anyway, because I read online that it is a VERY BAD IDEA to go straight to regular food after an extended fast because all the weight will come back on! So for the next three days I am on a liquid fast and then I'll switch to liquids + watermelon until august 1. I'll try to keep my cals around maybe 500-700 max! I really love how I am feeling right now though! The fast was interesting mostly because of actually what I was craving! It wasn't the usual crap or sweets, it was like: I would kill for a cracker/blueberries/steamed veggies with salt! It was crazy!!!! But I like it!
My abs are flat and all of my jeans are loose on me now so I am very happy!!! Thank you guys for all of your support on my fast I seriously appreciate it!!!
So as we know I am gunning for below 200 lbs. I am very close and hopefully I can hit it within the next week and a half!
I'm going to catch up on blogs and stuff tomorrow!
Comments!
Um it's reeeeaaally late right now and I have to wake up at 6am but I didn't want to leave you guys without an update. So as far as comments, from what I remember most of you guys were cheering me on so thankyou. The other parts were how am I getting away with all of this fasting? Mostly because my parents see a positive difference in my attitudes, outlook on life, and my appearance in general. As long as I don't injure myself they're okay with whatever. I'm sure if I passed out or something I would be in trouble but I make it my business to never let that happen. Also because I have a stopping point that sounds reasonable to them. I've got them on my side so as long as I don't screw anything up I'm fine! :)
XOXO,

Congrats on the fast & weight loss! Good luck with the liquid fast. hope ya have a great week!
ReplyDeleteYAY for you! We are in the same boat, it seems. I just started a 14 day liquid fast. :) Wish me luck! And good luck with getting under 200! I can't wait! :)
ReplyDeleteI've tried fasting and I always end up eating around 6pm. Maybe I should try a liquid fast. I can relate when you wrote about craving veggies and crackers. I no longer crave junk food. I crave nonfat yogurt, oranges, blueberries, apples, and broccoli. lol It feels great to not want crappy junk anymore. Keep up the good work. :-)
ReplyDeleteyou've done GREAT hun!!!! :D sooo beautifully ! :D keep it up !
ReplyDeleteHey! I don't think I've commented on your blog before but I feel it is totally necessary to tell you how freakin' awesome you're doing! 8 pounds? Are you kidding me that's fantastic! Next time you fast let me know and I might try to do my own shortened version of it. If you get some spare time would you mind shooting me an email (or comment) and let me know kinda how you started fasting, how hard it was for you, what you allowed yourself? I really want to do one for the first time 'cause I have a gw weight in coming up, but I'de like to know what to expect.
ReplyDeleteOkay so this was definitely a novel, sorry about that. Keep up the good work!!!
