This idea of fasting Every Other Day is something that I have been thinking about. Is this the way to keep one's metabolism from becoming sluggish?

Well, I walked/jogged on the treadmill; three miles in 56 minutes. I feel great now, having showered. I got pretty sweaty. I am wondering about target heart rate, I will have to research this. My heart monitor on my treadmill has me wondering what my heart rate should be.

I am also contemplating the idea of EOD fasting again. I thought about this after the 7 day fast I went on, and failed miserably. I think that this method of fasting, or one similar to it, is the way to keep metabolism from taking a big dive. After all, my metabolism has always seemed a little sluggish anyway!

I like the idea of one of the members on the Fasting for Weightloss board suggested, she is on a successful fast right now, and I think that she has the right idea. She is thinking about fasting for 2 days and then off for a day, 2-1 kind of thing. I plan on toying around with this plan in a couple weeks, I think.

For now, I am just going to fast the best that I can and I have decided to continue exercising because I am so out-of-shape. It feels good and I am hoping to reap the benefits of improved mood and a greater sense of well-being.

More later,

starry
