Well... we got off track on the fasting thing a bit. My husband decided that he would do better if he had a bit of something so he wouldn't be so hungry. He added shirataki noodles (0 calories) and almond milk smoothies (30 calories per 8 oz) during his fast.

It. Did. Not. Work.

The addition of any kind of calories seems to have changed the fast - which is bearable - to a really low calorie diet. He was hungry all the time.

So, this fast we are back to just water/tea/koolaid and it is much easier and we're not hungry. I crave, and the last two nights I dreamt I ate, but definitely bearable.

So, I'm on the fifth day of the fast and my weight is at its lowest ever. I'm excited about that. I swam about a mile in laps yesterday - we need to do more working out during the fast to keep muscle and maximize weight loss. Today I'm out on the farm, tractor mowing, watering, cleaning up, feeding chickens, etc. I'm a bit worn down, but getting things done.

Still, I'm pleased that this is a weight loss strategy that puts me in control. By the end of this week's fast I expect to be down to 264, that expectation keeps me on the straight and narrow.

Now, our biggest challenge is to only get 2,000 calories per day on our eating week.

Water fast going relatively well. I read somewhere on an Adrenal Support blog that you should eat just a bit of food in the morning so that your stored energy is released for use.

So, we now have a bit of something in the morning - I had about half an ounce of cheese and 5 almonds this morning.

Yesterday we had 'dinner' of chicken stock, 6 mushrooms, onion flakes and shiritake mushroom noodles. Honestly, I was hungry afterwards, but made it through until bedtime without cheating.

Today is that last full day of fasting, so I plan to go swimming this morning - that usually can take off another pound or so.

I haven't had a weight in the 260s for over twenty years - so this is pretty exciting.

Also, I'm now clearing out my drawers and closets - although my clothes are all favorites, they no longer fit. Sad, but also wonderful!!
