Ok- so this was at the end of a 50 hour fast and I probably needed to drink a bit of water (I drink water on my fasts, just was due for some more!) but wow! Finally some movement after 3 weeks of a plateau!

How do you not binge after such a long fast. Congratulations btw. That’s awesome work. I keep trying to fast but then when I eat (even if I plan out my cals which I HAVE to do) I overeat/ binge and throw all that hard work out the door. Please help.

Hey dancing bean! There is the INtermittent fasting podcast. Also- I wonder what you mean by “undo it all” weight goes up and down daily- and eating/drinking will make your weight higher than before meals. Also- maybe you need to look at what you are eating and/or shorten your eating window but have it be more often. I certainly did not start doing 50 hour fasts. The obesity code is also really good. As is the books “Feast, Fast, Trepeat” and “never binge again”

DrPuppers thank you so much for the info. I will definitely check these resources out as I need all the help I can get and want to make sure I am fasting correctly to obtain the benefits from fasting. I have been planning my meals in MFP in order to ensure that I am meeting my nutritional needs. I am a huge snacker and am not so much of a 3 big meals a day person (never have been) but prefer to graze all day long, which can cause problems as it’s harder to track grazing all day then specifically planned meals. So I try to make sure my days are meal planned out to combat endless snacking. And this, in the past, increases exponentially after I fast. Instead of eating a set amount of calories (even if I had already planned them out) I tend to snack and snack a lot 😫 which then turns into binging as my brain figures that if we’ve already blown the effects of the fasting (even if in reality I haven’t) may as well make it worth it. So I lose total control. Eek 😬. So I’d like to prevent this yo-yo effect and the torment it causes me and fast as healthy and correctly as possible. So I thank you so much for the extra info and I will definitely take a look/listen to them. Thanks again 😊

Lots of people think fasting is bad for you. Look at the Arab culture they fast for 30 days and it doesn’t faze them one bit
