Hi Sam!
Thanks for the welcome and the encouragement. My appetite is starting to calm down, so I'm feeling better. I do believe in the Fast-5 lifestyle so I'm to keep plugging away.

> hi jameelah, and welcome. first i want to wish you luck and tell you this is a great lifestyle. when i first started, i ate a LOT during my window. i quit for a couple of months then started again because i believe in fast 5. after a year i will eat outside my window once or twice a month but overall, i don't want to go back to eating all the time. it's just too much food not to mention all the benefits of fasting for 19 hours.

I have no problem with fasting during the 20 hrs; I have had a little hunger but nothing I couldn't handle with drinking water or tea. My biggest issue is overeating when I do eat. I have the urge to eat even though I'm not hungry. Especially when my eating window is about to close.
