Week 18 of ADF

Today I'm at 161 pounds. I was really strict about the diet this week. I stayed well below 300 calories on fasting days and did not splurge on eating days. Since I'm not back to the 2 pounds lost per week, I guess that I'm really in a plateau for weight. That is probably fine, because most experts think 161 pounds is plenty thin for my height of 6 feet. I find it intersting that I'm eating the same but losing very little now compared to when I started the diet. It seems that my body "knows" how fat it is and it is losing down to this level in a response to ADF. It did not lose the fat because it was starved for calories, but rather due to the physiological/gene expression changes brought on by the fasting. At least that is what some authors suggest, and so far it makes sense according to my experience.
