Finally back to making sense of the EOD every other day diet. Less than 500 calories Sunday, Tuesday, Thursday. It says "feast" but for me Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday needs to be approximately 2000 calories. I am in my 60s so this is working well for me as an eating pattern. I typically don't count calories so am working on a modest carb approach that might work. On my off day Monday I was busy and nearly skipped lunch. I then ate a regular sized dessert at bridge that evening to get to my 2000 calories and kept at around 120 net carbs. I need to learn to adapt to the off days to eat what I want but to keep my metabolism in check so that the weight comes off. The on days I really eat quite well. I just wait to eat until about 2:00 pm and have less than 200 calories. Dinner is typically about 6 ounces of seasoned fish, 1/2 Tlb butter, 8 cups raw spinach with a little onion blanched and seasoned, and another amount of vegetable to make up the difference to end up at about 475+ calories. I drink a lot including water, coffee, tea, and seltzer waters. No artificial sugars that day. No wine on my on days. I have yet to be hungry. Started before Christmas and lost to my low of 162.5 which I have not seen in a long time. Christmas let loose and gained 7 pounds. Flubbed going back with too much feasting on the off days. Now am back on track with a balance of the on days and eating what I want to have on the off days within reason. It is important to eat quite a few calories on the off days to keep metabolism burning fat. It is important to eat fat along with veggies and meat. I am happy. 37.5 pounds to go.
