In
an attempt to lose weight
I took up intermittent fasting, a technique used by many in which
breakfast- the supposed most important meal of the day- is skipped,
and the fast is broken at lunchtime.
This
started working at first, and the kilos started to drop. I started at
83.3kg, and hoped to be a whole 10kg down- during advent, when people
are throwing food all over the place. I found myself eating quite a
lot in the evening, even after a full meal. I came down a little, but
never below 81. Suffice to say, I had no luck. My weight went up at
one point, dropping to 82.2 at the final hurdle. 1100g is better than
nothing.
I
have other ideas for dieting that I'll try later, but I'm
contradicting my own long-standing belief that to be healthy, you've
got to keep it that way and not even consider that you're 'on a
diet'- you just don't eat crap as a habit. Sticking with the
no-breakfast rule was easier than I thought, though, so I may keep
that going.
It also helps if you don't hammer cocktail offers on Sunday afternoons, but hey, better that than Sunday nights.
