KM64's Refeed Diary

[km64]

DAY 1

Hey everyone, here I am in refeed land - what a mind blower!!! Just read through Yeti's refeed diary which has given me a little more confidence about refeed and adding more food (still pretty scared but here I am whatever happens).

I'm 2.4 above the goal cohens set for me but after my last month or two of battling not to deviate, constant hunger and coldness plus hair starting to fall out in last couple of weeks, I'd have to say I'm so ready to finish this program!! Just hoping I don't gain much weight like is possible according to the refeed stuff I've been given - really wanted a bigger buffer so I didn't get bakc into the 70s if I add weight at any stage in refeed, but just have to go with what my body is saying - and I really can't wait till refeed is over and I can start exercising and building muscle tone again (I can see muscles now and how big they are that I either never knew I had or had never seen since childhood).

While I'm not at goal I am certainly the smallest I can ever remember being since puberty and that is way cool! Fitting into a size 12 suit for work, enjoying airplane travel in massive seats (hmmm - I'm sure they didn't swap their seats over since I started cohens!! lol), loving the comments from people I haven't seen in a while.

So today I just got to add a bit of old protein and veg - have put it all in my lunch meal (veal strips stir fried with veg, tomato and a bit of mayo). Looking forward to the larger amount.

My refeed is 16 days (depending on what my wieght does of course).

Looking forward to the weekend (which is part of why I started refeed today) as tomorrow I get to add new fruit and Sun I get some bread. Should be interesting (have a little feeling my body and bread are not going to like each other much).

So here I am and looking forward to these next couple of weeks to see what happens.

Cheers - Kay.
