Good luck @macchiata I am disabled and as such physical activity has always been a bit challenging for me. Exercise has always been a bit lacking and I cant use much of the equipment in the gym so I cant see the value in paying the price everyone else does when I can barely use anything there.
I have always had a pretty high metabolism so luckily never put on much weight. That was until I hit my very late 20's.. all started to go down hill then. I eventually went Vegan, mainly for environmental and animal cruelty reasons but soon began to look more and more into the health benefits of a cleaner plant based diet.
Not long after going vegan I actually lost quite a bit of weight and all seemed good. That didnt last long though as work started to get on top as did many other aspects of life. With my time being consumed, little spare for adventurous cooking and stress playing a big factor in me gaining weight and not sleeping well I have now decided to take charge of the issue. I am now going to revert back to clean eating and intermittent fasting.
I actually just put a plan together yesterday and WILL be sticking to it. I am starting off with a two day (today and tomoz) distilled water fast with zero food. Then from Monday onwards I am clean eating, cutting out processed foods, drastically reducing sugar intake and intermittent fasting several days per week. Two days of each week will be limited to 500calories.
I am thinking about documenting the experiment so feel free to stop by my page for updates if you wish. I have followed you and upvoted this post. Good luck :)
