Well we're coming to the end of my 6th day Alternate day fasting...it's incredible how it makes you feel! Today in the gym I felt stronger, and for some reason more muscular...that could just be an illusion though. I felt full of energy even though yesterday was a fast day, and I'm DYING to tell you all how much weight has dropped off in this initial week...but that will have to wait to Saturday's weigh in ;)
I've had a good feast today, clocking in at around 2250 calories :) the funny thing is...I think I'm actually eating MORE calories overall in a week than I was when I was doing an actual daily calorie restriction. The alternate day fasting allows for more calories to be consumed over all, but they're just split in such a way that your fasting period can target mostly fat for energy. It's astounding how well this works - Astounding! I won't speak too soon though, I'll start singing it's praises as long as it continues to work well :) But so far so good!
Another fasting day tomorrow, which I have actually given a new upper limit of 550-600 calories for instead of 500.
I'll update you all again tomorrow, take it easy! ;)
