Intermittent Fasting Success Stories – My Target Reached

Sunday, October 25th, 2009

On the first of January 2009, I set a weight loss target to lose 4 stone over 12 months. I was going to do this without ” going on a diet ” I would not ban any of the foods I enjoy, instead I would simply reduce the number of calories I ate. Well this weekend , with a little over 2 months to spare, I have achieved my goal. My weight today is 12 stone 7lbs, or 175lbs – 79.5 kilos.

Over the years I have tried many different things to not only reduce my weight, but also to control it. Nothing has ever been so easy or so effective for me as using Intermittent Fasting.  In 10 months of using I.F I have not felt deprived, I have not felt at any time that I was on a diet and I think this is the single biggest reason for achieving my target.

So now I have reached my target what next ?   … Well first I am going to see if I can get the classic 6 pack,  I also want to try and reduce my body fat a little more, and continue to tone up. I do believe it is important to always set new targets, so for the end of the year, I am just going to try and improve my strength and fitness.

Intermittent Fasting Weeks 40 -41

Saturday, October 17th, 2009

A 2 week update, and though I have lost 5lbs, some of this will be water, not body fat , as I had the flu for a week, this despite the fact I actually have a flu jab !. I do mean the flu, not a cold, we are talking in bed with high temperature , sweating like I was sat in a sauna, and yet shivering at the same time.  I am still not fully recovered, but I am on the mend, though I don’t think I will be doing any body weight exercises for another few days at least.  I have also lost my appetite,  funny how natures way of helping the body recover is to stop us wanting food, so this last week or so it’s fair to say  I have had enforced fasting days and reduced calorie days rather than through choice.

So just to update my weight, I am now  176lbs, 12 stone 8lbs or aprox 79.8 Kilos. This leaves me only 1lb off my goal set at the start of the year, but let’s see what the next couple of weeks bring and my body gets back to normal.
