For a Newbie, it certainly sounds like you have already "Got It"!
Suggest you stick with your Pant size gauge of your fat loss. Too many jump on the scale and are disappointed when waist size progress is much higher than Scales. Unnecessarily putting themselves into a bad mental state.
I agree that when fasting, feeling so much better from this way of eating, biggest "feel-good" and free-breathing" gain of all from STOPPING Grain, you have more energy as you say and don't need to worry about exercise.
Now, I have my own question about Salt?
Made mistake of seeing a short Dr. Oz segment about Salt and blood pressure. Since I've found best policy is to Dis-Believe EVERYTHING said by Government...I'm curious if Salt is truly the "poison" they claim it is. I've never been one to put more than a sprinkle on meat, so suspect it's like so many Government-created "Crisises", No Big Whoop.

I don't weigh, but I've gone from a size 6 pants to a 4 (I'm only 5' 1" with a very small frame, so I still need to go down another size or so). I thought I'd weigh in here with my thoughts on exercise. I decided when I first started this new WOE that I would get my diet under control first and later add an exercise program, thinking I was more likely to stick to my new lifestyle changes if I did one at a time. What I've found is after several weeks of eating this way, I have so much more energy. There has been no need for me to do an "exercise program". With all this new energy, I'm just naturally more active. I'm more playful with my young children, we dance, play xbox kinect, run around at the park, etc. Also, my house is cleaner, and I find myself going and doing more. Way better than any equipment or going to the gym, in my opinion!

I tend to conk out easily probably due to my anemic state most of the time. Weird cos I eat a lot of red meat and greens, but it seems to come right quickly when i down a redbull. Probably the Vitamin B. Let me know what exercise works for you and what I can do to keep from fainting when I do. Oh and sports drinks don't work for me, it just all comes out after the workout.

I tend to fill my days with food. It's a filler, for when I'm bored or irritated or lonely or angry. Anyway, I lost about 10 pounds in 2 weeks. Felt pretty good, but I did at some stage feel like I hit a plataue. After 2 weeks only,what did I expect. My biggest danger is the scale. I get up every morning and I'm urged to get on that scale. If the numbers are down I'm okay, but if it's up then I start doubting if the program is working. Anyway, I am starting tomorrow again, because I've picked up 8 pounds in the past month. Hope you guys can keep me motivated and I promise (provisionally) to only weigh once a month. So 16 Feb I will be weighing in. Wish me luck. BTW my window is 4-9 felt the best cos when it gets to 5 I'm so ravenous that I eat way to much so 4 is my break-fast time.
