No, don't ever torture yourself. This is both simple and easy. Easy Peasy!!! LOL Yes, JUDDD is effectively an extended fast of approximately 36 hours because it takes our full DD and adds the sleeping hours before and following that DD.

Since our bodies are set up following natural circadian rhythm, which is regulated by daylight and nighttime, we have certain highs and lows within us regulated by that natural rhythm.

If you switch your Up and Down Days into periods from NOON to NOON, you are combining half of each day into one single same circadian rhythm day.. effectively feeding your body during its up cycle about the same calories every daily up cycle. Since your Down Days are very low calorie, when combined with Up Day calories and then divided into halves to be fitted into a NOON to NOON schedule, every circadian rhythm cycle will have about the same number of calories, all lower than your normal, but none truly at a fasting or a feasting level, like we do on JUDDD. I think you could lose weight that way, but every day would simply be *a diet*. That's how your body would see it, based on it's natural rhythm cycle.

One of the strengths of JUDDD is the power of its extended 36-hour fasting period, which is then brought slamming up against the feasting Up Day of full calories. (It must be a lot like living in the caveman days when you are starving and eating whatever tubers and bugs, shoots and berries you can find one day, and then the next day.. shazam!.. somebody kills a wild hairy beast and everybody gets a real good meal before it's gone and they are facing hunger again.)

And we all get to "diet" however we want to, but as to intermittent fasting within the JUDDD framework.. nooooooo.. it's not going to happen much with me. I tried the going-all-day-without-eating-and-just-having-supper thing, and.. I didn't like it.

Hope all goes exceedingly well for you. It's exciting that you are with us and are going to start in again in a little different way. The more you read, the more sense it makes and the more you realize how easily it works if you don't fight it or try to redesign it. Good luck!

What's your typical DD like, Gracie? I'm trying my DDFH (DD Fat Hack) today. Wish me luck!!!

(I'm taking the break and want the bounce to be between 138-135)

12/1- DD 138.0 ( that must have been the Chinese Food- salty!)
12/2- UD 136.3 (Yesterday was potatoe only DD)
12/3- DD 136.6
12/4- UD 136.6 (Starting maintenance break through 1/1/13)
12/5- DD 137.3
12/6- UD 135.3 (maybe it was the loss of spinal fluid )
12/7- DD 138.8 I'm still in pain from the 5th- so maybe it's inflamation?

Sorry you're still in pain, Carly. I agree that it's probably fluid retention. You'll bounce down in no time.

[Librarygirl]

Angela! Use the weight before shower! It's true, your body absorbs water from a bath or shower and you will weigh a little more afterward.

Good job on losinggg!

[calichris]

Ideal world goal: BMI less than 40 by the end of the year (225). December fun back-up goal (anniversary, Christmas, parties, travel, oh my!): maintain. Or anything in between. My plan is to make the days when I don't have events really good ones and add extra exercise.

12/1 - MD - 233.3 - challenge #1 ... DH's work Christmas dinner party on DD. I don't think the food will be special enough to change rotations, so plan is to fast until then and choose wisely.
12/2 - UD - 232.6
12/3 - DD - 233.1 - been a little loosy goosy lately ... committing to a great DD today!
12/4 - UD - 231.5
12/5 - DD - 231.5
12/6 - UD - 230.2
12/7 - DD - 231.5 - hip hop aerobics (first exercise of the month, oops )
12/8 - UD - 228.6

TY Librarygirl...it all shows up eventually, huh? I did SEE it...that is what I remember Usually I can jump in the shower earlier in the morning during the week, but it is quicker than weekend showers, and I am down -.2 I conditioned & shaved this morning...so I prolly did absorb more water this time.

I really wasn't expecting much loss this morning since I have lost the last few days. I have switched to LC again (I tried adding carbs, but my body just will not have it), AND I'm thinking perhaps the SIRT1 gene is starting to kick-in...I'm not full of energy yet...but I am not as tired as usual



Have a great day!!!

Ended Novemer at 232.0 >>>> -8 lbs

Dec4.... 233.0
Dec5.... 231.5
Dec6.... 231.0
Dec7.... 230.0 -- New Low!

[Deen73]

Hi, everybody -- today was my first weigh-in after being back to JUDDD. My highest from a month or so of doing pretty much nothing was 233. Then I did a week of low-carb and was down to 230. And this morning, the grand-total loss after 1 full week of JUDDD: .5 lbs. For 229.5. Now... while that's a little dissapointing, I am coming RIGHT up on TOM. It's still going in the right direction -- so I'll take that. Here's hoping for something a bit more dramatic next week!

[LoCarbGal]

If you're losing even a little right before TOM, you're losing! I'm sure when it's passed, you'll be down a couple or more pounds!

[Deen73]

Thanks for the encouragement, LowCarbgirl! Of course it would be nice to see 2-3 lbs gone on my first week, but I understand there are mitigating factors at work. TOM is one, as well as the fact that I'm not currently taking any estrogen supplementation (and, with PCOS, that makes it hard for me to lose weight). Also, I've really gone a bit nuts and up'd the exercise this week (sometimes getting 2 workouts a day -- well, one just walking, but still...) -- so I am telling myself I've added a little muscle. Also, I haven't weighed every day -- so who knows that the bounce is. Anyway, good job, everybody@

[Babsbabs]

December goal is to get back down to my previous maintenance range of under 150 again. My start weight is higher than I hope my true weight is as I had every flavour of chips that I like last night

12/01 DD 156.0
12/02 UD 154.8 started potato hack
12/03 DD 151.8 obviously a bit of water weight gone! ate 350 cals of potatoes/no fat. PDD (Potato Down Day)
12/04 MD 151.0 worked out to approx 800 cals of potatoes, couldn't eat to UD calories due to lack of appetite.
12/05 MD 149.2 1 more day of potatoes and then back to JUDDD
12/06 DD 148.8 finished the 4 day potato hack! It has been so successful for me I might do one more day and have today be a potato DD so I can have a regular UD on Friday for our friends Christmas party. I am not sure yet if I can face more potatoes...(I did one more day)
12/07 148.0 UUAD with NO potatoes and a party
12/08 150.2 DD
