BACK ON TRACK WEEK 8/24/2009 page

So....Grokette was suppose to survive last week, but amongst her hikes she came across a bountiful field of fruit, meat, and... almond butter? It's time to get back on track. Consider this your opportunity.

Rules:

1. Carbs less than 50 per day

2. At least a 12 hour fast/day, (easy. basically this means no eating after dinner and nothing until b-fast the next day).


That's it. Back on the wagon, baby!

After seeing the dentist today, I might be fasting for 48 hours or more

Im in. down with the carbs, on with the fasting.

I'm in, as of this afternoon (we'll not mention the butter/coconut/cocoa concoctions in the fridge, nor the salad cream at lunchtime!).

How is everyone doing?

I'm under 50g carbs but boy am I feeling it! Very tired today, also still hungry.


Means something must be happening though!

Diana Renata also started a survival week doublin up thread. We kinda duplicated each other's efforts. I suggest everyone hop onto that one.

I am a tad hungry. Definitely tired since little sleep the past 2 days + strenuous workouts.


Total fast, once I reach dinnertime, will equal 18 hrs.


Note to self: Minty, Green tea during a fast causes unwelcome jitters (ack!).

Interesting note on green tea, Sassa.

Caffeine during a fast for me strangely has a relaxant effect- puts me right to sleep sometimes! Really don't know why...
