[fast5] Re: Could this be the one???

Andy,
I liked what you wrote and am interested in exploring it further. Can you point me to come links that discuss the information that you provided re: insulin dependent vs growth hormone.

Expect muscles, bones, and organs to become denser- which means a bit heavier. Also expect some muscle growth even if you don't lift weights, just because of the switch in hormone activity. All of this could mask your first 10-20 lbs of fat lost and it could be frustrating if all you're going by is the scale weight. Many people have quit diets that were working because they don't understand that at first we gain lean body mass (bones, organs, muscles) to the same degree that we take off fat, at first.

I just found the fast5 book yesterday, printed it, read it and I followed it today, delaying my "break-fast" until 4p.m. I am cautiously approaching this diet. It seems good enough to be true for my personality. So I am asking myself...could this be the diet that I can commit to and take me to thindom?

I just wonder, when will I start losing weight? I know that I can face the fasting period...because I have the lovely meal waiting at the end of the day for me.
