Re: [fast5] Hello from Wa. State

Hi Sarah,

Welcome and best wishes for much success. I too am in Washington State, I live in Mukilteo. I have five children, with four grown, and am now helping with the grandkids. I am having great success with fast 5, it is slow, but wonderful. If you live anywhere around Seattle, you know slow, as our traffic just doesn't seem to move, but you do eventually get there. I learned patience on I-5!

Hi! My name is Sarah. I am married and between us we have 7 children. All are raised with families of their own except for the last two of whom we adopted. We have a son named Braxton who is almost 10 with Shaken Baby Syndrome and Autism and our daughter Sarita, age 5 with emotional problems. So, I guess you realize that retirement for us has been a bit delayed :)
Anyway, I saw Fast5 online and was very interested in it. I used to fast and loved the feeling from it. Earlier this week, I tried to start it but had to see my doctor and get things changed around as my blood sugars drop way too low in the morning after meds. I have been doing low carbs for 2 weeks (8 pounds gone, water of course) and blood sugars have been dropping anyway. Today, is a new start. My meds have been adjusted and so far this morning, seem to be doing ok! This cup of black coffee I am drinking though is almost hard to swallow though :).
I have planned my window between 3 - 8PM as that is generally when i feed cooked meals to my family.
I have been enjoying reading posts here and feel very encouraged that perhaps it will work for me.

Sarah
