Category: Intermittent Fasting

When: 3pm

What: Pizza, cupcake, burger, small salad (gift from student’s parents at lesson)

Done: 9pm

Observation:  I really liked the salad.  The burger too!  I think as this progresses I’ll make my way to healthier and healthier choices.

I was actually kind of overstuffed at 9.  maybe too much wheat? too much cupcake?  didn’t like it. will try to avoid in future.

I’ve noticed that by about 12 or 1pm, my tongue starts tasting weird. Funky. Something is happening at this point. I hope it’s extreme fat burning.  I think it may ketosis, but, ah, I don’t care about all that jumbo right now.

 

When: 3pm

What: Pizza!

Done: 9pm

Observations:  I really hope this works.  This is cool.

 

I didn’t start this blog till Day 4, so I’ve got some catchup to do.
When: Ate first at 3:30pm

What:  I pigged out. Had pulled pork,  couple of beers, cupcake, mac and cheese, another cupcake later.

Done: Didn’t eat after 9.

Observations:   I like this program. Won’t call it a diet. I didn’t.

 

 

The whole idea behind this blog is to see what works.  I am trying to lose weight and do it in a way that I can maintain.

“You already ate it” is what I tell myself when I’m hungry. I’ll get more into this later.

Part of the problem is that I think of food as fun. And, it is. It’s also therapy, or a drug.  Food makes us happy.  I’ve got to switch my thinking for a bit. Maybe. Food is fuel.  And I’ve already loaded up on fuel.  I’m carrying around a few extra barrels of fuel.  I can live on those for a while.

I’ll give a little history of the latest attempt and maybe some background, too.

I started at 200lbs.  I’m 5’8″.   Did some other dieting, lost five pounds. Then nothing for a couple of months. Even trying other diets in there.

I’m 194lbs right now.

Right now, I’m trying Intermittent fasting. I’m on day 4.

Ballad of the Most Successful Caveman Ever

Wakes up, rolls over, walks to front of cave and stuffs some eggs in his mouth.  Nobody steals them.
Walks out the cave and grabs some pancakes of the pancake bush and scoops up some bacon beetles.

and so on and so on
