I have a "responsible job", a bit stressful too.

I am very excited as have a holiday booked and have four days to slim down. I was considering the fasting diet but am concerned what might happen to my energy levels during the day.

I am someone who crashes a couple of hours post breakfast so it will be interesting to see. It would be great to hear feedback. I am also someone who picks all day long so I have no idea if this will work for me. It would be great to hear whether how others have managed.

Thank you!

People often report that they have more energy whilst fasting. Personally I don't notice much of a change.

Interesting, You see I have a slump following breakfast (high protein caffeine fuelled brekkie) then snack at 11 and have lunch at 12.00- 13.00. By 3 pm I'm asleep at my desk.

I am wondering if fasting may help, but the constant small snacks appear to increase my energy - but unfortunately are making me fat!

What are you actually eating ?

I do not eat before lunchtime ever on a work day or a gym day and I never "crash"
