Snowwhite100's Journal, 05 May 2019

I had a new experience yesterday: for me. When calculating my food for the day about midnight, I felt my calories were too low for health, at 600 plus. So even though I wasn't hungry, I went ahead and ate some left overs: a chicken leg and a half, and about a quarter cup of homemade spaghetti sauce. This was something new for me since I am often hungry when Intermittent Fasting, so was surprised at not being hungry. I am not trying to lose weight, just want to eat for brain clarity, and to hold steady. I believe it will always be a struggle for me to avoid high carbs and sweets which will trigger my addictions. Two weeks ago I gained 4 lb in a day and a half, binging. I'm surprised my weight is down to this extent, since it has been many years since I was at this level. I had thought in maintenance I would be able to eat some fruit, but it seems to trigger me. I had Tempura Shrimp today and I will probably be hungry all day tomorrow because of the breading. Only fasted 13 hours today, that's one of lowest since November. It's ok with me.
105.9 lb Lost so far: 12.9 lb.    Still to go: 0 lb.    Diet followed reasonably well.

I think fasting is good for the body. Shocks the system. I fast on Mondays, but do have milk several times a day and juice, and of course my coffee. I have also learned that I have to have about 1200 to 1300 on the regular days to be successful.
