WeMitts doing JUDDD diet - Page 2 - MiniMins.com

**Barb** · 29th May, 2007

I am sure that over time there will be a relaxing of cal counting and a natural awareness of Ud's and Dd's without actual counting. As for the SIRT1, you are right Karion, that is a big issue for me, as yet i don't know what the benefits are so can't really judge how important it will be for me. If it does make a big difference to my allergies/asthma then yes, I would cal count for life, anything would be better than getting so short of breath and ending up on massive doses of steroids. I have had several close calls with asthma and actually been resucitated once, so to keep it at bay would be wonderful, for me and my family.

Which is pretty much how I got to my present state. Okay, I didn't Juddd, but I did calorie count whilst being aware and working on getting that natural rhythm.

Had I known about Judddering 2 years ago, I reckon I would probably would have done that instead. I just get a bit concerned about people thinking there was no other way to maintain than to Juddder for life.

And that would be a good reason to stick with it. In fact, it was whilst I was trying to find help for my asthma and general bronchial troubles that I found out about Juddd in the first place.

I just LOVE that little Mantra at the end of your post, Karion. It's SO true, and it's something I need to keep remindind myself about, every day, being a bit of a "Mrs Instant" like most women.
I stuck to SS yesterday, and have decided to stick with it, and use JUDD for maintenance. I just want this weight I have put on GONE (here's Mrs Instant again) Of course I feel like **** today, but I know it will pass. Really looking forward to doing JUDD in 2 or 3 weeks. It makes perfect sense to me, and is the most exciting thing I've heard about in the "diet world" in a long time.

I mentioned on my diary thread that I've noticed most 'naturally' slim people I know seem to eat this way without even realising it. They have days when they definitely eat more and then seem to just eat less for a day or so. It's not a conscious decision - they just 'do it'.

My 11 year old daughter is like this ... she's slim like her dad (and all his family) and we never talk 'diet' to her although she knows I'm trying to get healthy by losing weight. (Of course, I really just want to look nice in a pair of size 12/14 jeans but I don't tell her that!

)

Sophie eats like a horse for days: I sometimes wonder where she puts all that food in her little body then suddenly, she'll have days when she eats like a sparrow. I've never forced the issue - she's fit and healthy so I don't make her finish her meals etc: she eats what she wants and no more.

I believe this is the natural way for humans to eat ... I don't think we were designed to have the same number of allotted calories every day: after all, we don't USE the same number of calories every day. We may live in the 21st century, but biologically, our bodies haven't changed all that much since the Bronze age - and we certainly didn't 'allot our calorie intakes to match our BMRs' back then!

So I'd say that eating JUDDD style - but raising the cals on a DD - would be an ideal way of maintaining. I intend to try it anyway.

Hi Debbie,

I find it very interesting the way your daughter eats as this is more or less the way I ate before getting married and for some years afterward. My weight stayed around 105 to 112lbs.

My husband on the other hand ate small amounts but more often and he was also skinny.

Some where in between our eating patterns crossed over and the end result was weight on for both of us. He has now lost his weight and gone back to his old eating pattern and is maintaining his weight and feels much healthier.

He now acknowledges that the way I use to eat obviously suited me but at the time he did have serious issues about it.

I am very interest to see how you all get on as I do feel this way of eating is my own natural state but just now don't feel confindent enough to try it until I shift some of this excess.

Wishing all the Juddders success.

Love Mini xxx

Thanks Mini - always good to have your support. This plan certainly seems to have casued some interest which is great. I am really enjoying it and feel I have found a plan I could stick with forever. Now that is a FIRST!!

Love

Hi Barb,

That does seem to be the secret at the end of the day is to find something that fits in with your life style and becomes a way of life that brings health and well being, rather than feeling like a penance.

Love Mini xxx

Oh dear. I know that ketosis isn't good for cerebral function but Judddddering seems to be even worse!

starryeyes · 29th May, 2008

Hi everybody

I'm new to the site and to the juddd diet. I'm two days in and have to say i'm weirdly enjoyin it. It's early days but for the last 15 years I've sined and pointed everything in sight while binging off and on. I've got about about 8 stones to lose and most days it feels like i'll always feel like this fat but invisable person. However i'm finally at a place where I want this to change and i want a life. I'm sick of how being overweight makes me feel. I'm hopeful that this weird off and on routine will reduce the overeating. I have to cousins who are tiny and they tend to eat like this. I was out with one last week and after I suggested we got something to eat she said she wasn't hungry. I couldn't believe it!! is there actually people out they that don't eat all the time or think about food. It made me think. Anyway I'm giving this a try - wish me luck

Hiya starryeyes. Very best of luck with Juddd.

Have you spoken to Claire yet? She's often around on the The last stone mission......ROLL UP!!!! thread, but pops into the juddd forum on minimins too.

Claire got to goal on Juddd and I think still uses it to maintain

starryeyes · 29th May, 2008

Thanks KD
Had a look at your photo's wow!!!! You are an inspiration!
