Thread: What if I dont eat anything?

Well no hunger pains of tummy rumbles at all. the only thing was I woke up about 4am and just couldn't settle it just kept playing on my mind when I shut my eyes for some reason. Half an hour later and got up and had some toast. Went back to be and flaked out.
Even this morning I didnt eat untill 12. Again today I'm just not hungry. I'm hoping this diet have turned off my hunger gene lol.....I wish.

Well I was really looking forward to my breakfast this morning. Usually stay in bed til about 8am on a Sunday, but was up at 7am to have breakfast lol!

hahhaha this is so funny. Strange how it affects the hunger. I can say I have had none of this. Still ravenous all the time ha ha ha what a greedy cow!!!

No, I haven't felt like that either. On a DD and constantly thinking about food. Was at a sponsored walk and fun day today so walked about 3 miles (I think!) had a black coffee when we got back to the hall and averted my eyes from all the cakes/scones!
Having said that I didn't have that much yesterday on my UD. Probably 'cause I knew that I could have what I wanted. Bought a bar of Galaxy cookie (never seen this before) but haven't touched it. (yet!)
Maybe the not hungry thing will kick in soon - I haven't finished my first week yet so still have time. Looking forward to tomorrow.

Ooh! Don't mention galaxy cookie! I used to eat far too much of that! It's gorgeous

Great going walking 3 miles on a dd Well done you

Yes well done on the walking and avoiding the cakes.

I can say I have had none of this.

Sounds like its just me, but not complaining. Will see what happens tomorrow on my DD.

If Karenlou pops on sure she'll answer this question lol.

Hiya - I've been away so catching up on posts. Dr J sez you can fast on a DD if you want but he set the 20% because most people wouldn't be able to stick to an alternate day fast. The reason it doesn't affect your metabolism is because you eat on the up day - it would only put your body into starvation mode if you did it for longer than a day.

I know there are people on here who have studied nutrition - I haven't so just have Dr J's book to go on in saying this.

Karenlou, I may need to get the book as I think it goes into great detail

There's loads of really interesting scientific information in the book too - all the background tests, the asthma study and so on. I found it really interesting and a good antidote if people try to tell you it's an unhealthy diet.

Yes I'm ordering my copy tomorrow
