Hello group,
I fell off of Fast-5 and gained back weight, so I am going on it again. It does really work.
One problem I notice is that I cannot drink tea in the morning without food. I am caffeine sensitive and I shake if I try to have tea. And I can't take tea in the evening. So no more tea.
I need to do my eating in the evening, because dinner is so social for me, I need my social life!
The other problem I have is eating sweets. I think it's better if I lay off sweets, even on fast-5.
Of course, if anyone else here can handle caffeine in the morning, or sweets, go for it!
How are you all doing?
- Tamara

[fast5] No tea for me
[fast5] Similar but different from Fast-5
How to Lose 35 Pounds Without Dieting
Bittman has shared his new food mantra with the masses in his latest book "VB6: Eat Vegan Before 6:00." It's a simple plan that anyone can follow, he says in an interview with The Daily Ticker.
"What the science is really telling us is that we don't eat enough plants," he says. "We eat too much junk food. We eat too much meat. We eat too many animal products in general. The whole strategy is shifting a portion of your diet – not all of it – but a tolerable part of it to plants."

thanks! "not gaining" is a huge victory, especially as we get older!

Sam, how has the F5 way of eating changed your health/weight over the two years you've been practicing it? thanks!
