Yeah. It does sound like we have a lot in common. When I tried it before, my husband and teenaged son kept saying, "What you're doing is not healthy." That was said a lot. Then I went to the doctor and she said she would never recommend fasting. I have to admit that after hearing so much negative the only thing I needed to help me fail was a little craving. It was actually easy to give in and break the fast with everyone giving me such negative feedback.
I will not do that again. I'm actually not hesitant at all now. I'm just trying to make sure I pick the best starting date. I have done that now. It will be on December the 4th. I'm not hesitant at all about the MC. It's the LF that I'm worried about. The instructions seem so simple but I'm affraid that I'll somehow mess it up. I'm really just a little worried about the LF.
