Agreed, wine IS very fattening, empty calories, bad for you etc. etc. But blimey, the menopause is awful enough without trying to struggle through without a nice ice-cold glass of Pinot every now and then!
Well, I have been on the ADF for just over a week now, but have modified it slightly - it is really, really hard to do at weekends, so OH and I are doing the 'fast' on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays, the other days we are trying to eat no more than we would normally (and actually, am no hungrier either, so it's not a problem at all) good home-cooked food, and a glass of vino or two. I find that at work it really is OK to do the fasting, if I take an interesting lunch with me to work, and then keep myself busy in the evenings (not too much slobbing about in front of the TV etc), and the fact that I know I can eat a nice breakfast in the morning, sort of makes up for feeling a tiny bit deprived. It is working for me, and I feel really good.
How's about the rest of you?
