[fast5] Re: Fast 5 new member Cheryl



I am a little confused by what pepper howard said about the time of the window " more results oriented that we eat between 5pm to 10pm is so when one sleeps, one is adding the snooze time - typically from 11pm 'til 6, 7 or 8am - or roughly 7-8ish hours of  'easy time' in that it's not hard to not eat when you are sleeping!"

confused because either window (11am to 4pm or 5pm to 10pm) includes the time we sleep. there are two reasons I prefer the earlier time which still gives me 19 hours of fasting.

1. I don't have to wait all day from the time I get up to break my fast.

 2. I hate to go to bed with a full stomach.

I think it's easier to not eat in the evening after my window closes than it is to wait until 5pm to eat. as I have said before, it is different for everyone. a lot of people have 2 good reasons for the later window.

1. they are busy during the day which I am not. and/or

 2. they find it hard to say no to eating in the evenings. also, many people have to prepare dinner for the family at that time.

but for single people like me who don't have a job, the earlier window works great. if I'm watching tv in the evening and get a craving, I will have a cup of peppermint tea. peppermint kills the appetite and it's a treat for me.

[fast5] Re: Fast 5 new member Cheryl



hi Cheryl, welcome to fast five. I have been doing fast five for quite a while and for me it was a while before I found out what works best for me.

my window is also 11am to 4pm but I am flexible. for example, today I am having lunch with a friend at 1pm.

when I first started, it was difficult and I stopped and started a couple of times. now, I have no desire to eat any other way. I have one meal per day during my window and maybe a small snack later. I eat whatever I want. some days I eat breakfast which I love and some days just a sandwich and chips. I almost always have dessert (which I also love). I do try to eat mostly real food and as little processed food as possible. as I said, I don't stress. if I want something (like chips!) I do it.

I feel great and have lost 30 lb since last oct. I was losing 1 lb per week and I think I hit a wall. during June I was drinking soda and didn't lose any weight at all. now I limit soda to one or two per month.

anyhow, I hope this gives you an idea of how it can and does work. everyone is different and I think you have to find what works for you.

Re: [fast5] Fast 5 new member Cheryl



Thank you. I started out with 8 hours of eating and no weight loss. Now I dropped to 5 hours. My stomach is sick today for some reason. I had a small bowl of granola, goat milk, raisins and 3 dates. Then I had a snack of 2 Wasa bread crackers spread with almond butter and pineapple. The last thing I ate was a square of lasagna and a green spinach and acai smoothie. That's it and it was probably too much. I'm 5'4 and 152 pounds which is marginally overweight. Any advice?

Do not let the food industry sell you the idea that you must eat 3 square meals a day...filled, I shall add, with loads of additives we were not designed to process.  Oh. And see how your clothes feel...not what the scales say.  It's not about weight loss per se.  Enjoy the trials and think of this as a new way of being, not a diet.  

Also, you do understand that the reason it is best, more results oriented that we eat between 5pm to 10pm is so when one sleeps, one is adding the snooze time - typically from 11pm 'til 6, 7 or 8am - or roughly 7-8ish hours of  'easy time' in that it's not hard to not eat when you are sleeping! Thus your body starts to burn your stored fat when you're not eating for roughly 19 hours.  
Happy days, chuk!

Re: [fast5] Facebook Group



Yep Bert, What is it with the 5:2 diet?
I have read about it a bit but it wasn't making sense like yours fast-5 philosophy.

I'm fond of Yahoo because back in 2008 they saw the beneficial effects of intermittent fasting and recognized Fast-5 with the "Best in Health" award--about four years before other intermittent fasting (or pseudo-fasting) plans like the Fast Diet/5:2 and others hit the scene with media power behind them.

However, much of the message traffic has moved to Facebook. Anyone wanting to discuss Fast-5 with others or ask questions is welcome in the group, which is private, so friends cannot see what you post. Questions, comments and discussion are welcome here too!

Re: [fast5] Re: Is 5 hours window is the best?



Well Mr. Herring that is a very good answer.
5-hour window is good for me. I already feel less hungry and losing weight slow and steady. There are occasions that I need to be flexible but it does not affect my appetite at all. Having said that, when I change the window to 6 or 7 hours I don't feel as good as with the 5-hour window so 5 is my magic number. Thank you for elaborating about the insulin and the anti-inflammatory effects. I'm only doing it for a few weeks but already know that it's for life.

Thank's again and have anice day

Eyal
