[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm 5'2" as well, right now 120, trying to get back to 114.  It's tough. I do best if  I cut out sugar, wheat (all grains is better), and eat a high fat, low carb diet.

[b]Also, I love love love fasting. It seems to kick start a  nice weight loss for me. If you can do a 24-48 hour fast, then commit to a low carb diet ...  you'll lose the weight.[/quote][/b]

Not OP but do you just not eat anything? [/quote]

Yeah, I just don't eat anything.  I drink water and herbal tea. Black tea or coffee is fine if you need the caffeine.

For me, I find it easier to not eat than to stop eating. Once my mouth gets going my body wants more more more. Being on the smaller side, cutting calories is difficult, because my calorie limit is already low (and yes, I work out. And yes, I work out fasted.)

There are the occasional bouts of hunger, but only like 1-2x/day. And they go away about after 10 minutes. I like the added benefits of fasting that my GI track never hurts.

But it is difficult to find time to do it with family -- my husband and kids are not keen on the fact usually that I'm not eating. My kids don't notice, but my husband does. So only when he isn't coming home for dinner do I plan a fast. ... like after dinner the night before (e.g. Sunday night) before I'll stop eating, and then not eat at work and when DH doesn't come home for dinner (e.g. Monday dinner) and then start eating again mid-day or dinner time the following day (Tuesday).

Obviously, you wouldn't do this that often. [/quote]
