I am glad that I finally discovered Fast-5! When I was younger, I wsa
a one-big-meal a day type kid (much to the chagrin of my three
squares a day) and never had a weight problem. In college, I was
super thin because I could only afford one meal a day and, unlike
home where snacks were available, didn't have the oppurtunity to eat
anything from limbic hunger.
After college, I started working out since I was always an athlete,
but couldn't go pro in anything. To get fitter, I bought into the
mini-meals and gained weight. Since then, my weight has been all
over the place and I developed a whopping case of bulimia. As
counterintuitive as it may seem, the Fast-5 has really helped manage
my eating disorder (waayyyy more than the meal plans from treatment)
and I feel happier and saner about food.
My problem now is that I often eat at the beginning of the window and
then panicking at the end and forcing myself to eat again because a.
I fear the hunger to come (although I like the how I feel when I
fast, the IDEA of the fast seems to trigger this) and b. I miss
eating. Food used to be my BFF and now I don't want a lot of it.
Has anyone else had this problem? I feel like I'm short circuiting my
progress by eating from limbic hunger during my window. Thoughts?
