My diet is pretty good, plenty of veg, chicken, rice. I eat very little bread and only drink alcohol once a week.

I eat around 1200 - 1500 calories a day except for Sunday (cheat day) which can be around 3000 - 4000

I eat from 2pm - 8pm and have 2 meals in that time and the odd snack (Greek yogurt, fruit, protein shake etc...)

Hope that helps

Interesting read & a good thread.  It has gone a little confusing for the *new reader.

Would those already doing there own tailored plan, kindly care to post your regime/schedule & any fitness undertaking please?


TIA.

Although I'm not doing a tailored plan, I'm doing the Panorama diet, and so it might be worth reiterating for clarity:

On 2 days of the week, I eat 600 calories. For the rest of the week, I eat normally. That's it!

As for exercise - no change. I happen to workout (swim) 3 times a week. And I like to get a bit of exercise most days, even if it's just a 1 mile walk, or quick bike ride.

After a month, I've not experienced much weight loss (a kilo or two, maybe). But I was relatively careful and trim beforehand anyway.

I re-read the thread late last night and came up with what i think is a good plan, so i put it into place.

Current weight is 194 standing at 5ft 11" eek

There's some interesting comments in here relating to the timing of fasting....

As an example, I had a roast dinner Sunday evening (7.00-ish) and then only had a cup of Redbush tea during the evening. Went to bed, then "fasted" all day Monday (600 cals) and then had my normal breakfast (sugar-free muesli with yoghurt) for breakfast today (7.30-ish).

So, when did my "fast" start? On the face of it, it looks like about 36 hours in total, even though I was only planning to do a one-day fast (repeating on Thursday).

I can see the logic of the comments surrounding the "18:6" diet, because, on the face of it, it does sound like just skipping breakfast. But, I guess if it works, then that's great.

What is interesting for me, and quite a lot of people who contribute to the EFL2 Facebook group, is how much more aware I am of what I eat on my "normal" days. What I thought would happen is I'd go nuts - especially the day after a 2-day fast, but I don't. On my "normal" days I don't think I go anywhere near 2000 cals even. Although I'm still convinced the bulk of the weight-loss I've had (9lbs in 3 weeks) is down to limiting my alcohol intake to weekends.

I think it's a happy coincidence that the meal you miss happens to be breakfast. The time frame fits well because you can incorporate your sleep into the 18 hours.

It's the time from your first missed meal to your first actual meal - so it's a 24-hour fast, in your example. You don't include the time period that your body was fully satiated (ie. the nighttime before the fast begins).
