Re: [fast5] Starting over

 

Eat plenty of protein! I think that's the trick to getting through the day without being hungry. Fish and eggs, especially, are hunger-killers. Eat your protein before the rest of the meal ... save dessert until last. Over the years I've observed people here, that is the one theme that keeps coming up: more protein, less sweets, corrals hunger.

If you do get hungry, try lemon juice in tea (or in water), or a bit of vinegar in water. Both of those are kind of magical during a fast. Vitamin C and citric acid are both good too.

Eating plenty of vegies is good too. Fiber does fill you up, and it also does good things for your gut, and gives you loads of nutrients. 

Certain foods seem to trigger "the hungries" the next day. I think sugary foods are the worst in that respect, but finely ground-flour products may be bad too. Steamed rice seems fine for me though.

Hello,


I am new to this yahoo group. Starting over with fast 5 tomorrow. I began a few months ago and then began to waiver and then tried other things. But my experience with fast 5 that I had for two months is enough. Tomorrow is day one and I am starting Fast 5 again with a new appreciation and determination.

If anyone would like to comment on what they have done to get back on track (emotionally or mentally) that would be appreciated.

Talk soon.

Elsie
