[fast5] Back and forth but back for good

 

Hi all, I've been toying around with FF for a few months now, have fallen off the wagon and tried different things, and let the holidays get in the way. I've never had more than a few successful days in a row with this. That's not because I find F5 too hard, but because of poor attitude and weak commitment on my part.

But now, weighing in at 185 at only 5' tall, I am back on the F5 wagon to stay. I have about 50-55 lbs I'd like to lose. When I got pregnant with my 3rd baby I was around 140 and in a size 6-8, and I'd like to be a solid 4-6. Today is my 3rd day back and I'm doing well. I don't plan to get on the scale for another week.

I really love the simplicity of this. What I need to work on is not breaking my fast with starch/sugar, and I'm going to keep the starch to my meal, and that's it. Anything eaten outside meal time is to be fruit/veggie/protein/fat. For now of course the biggest thing is keeping to that 5 hour window, which for me is 4-9pm. I've also found that a workout in the morning leaves me less hungry throughout the day. I've been drinking sparkling water with liquid flavored stevia (so many flavors and a little goes a very long way). I've been trying to keep up reading these messages and they are very inspiring. I can't wait to join the successful ranks of F5vers on this board. I will try to check in here more often to keep me motivated.
