Mine are not much lower, especially not in the beginning. Although the first two weeks were not that difficult, I used every "extra", was most definitely hungry by dinner and surprised by the total calories. Would have large salads with the meal, extra veg, make some berry with coconut milk type dessert, indulging in the extra veg and fruit encouraged with this plan for fiber. On some eating days would have a MIM for breakfast, but no longer do that. My appetite has settled down, but fasting day is maybe around 80% of calories of an eating day. This was the first week I dropped the CO to see if that makes a difference.
With my weight loss, just ignore those five pounds the first week. I was way off the low carb ranch, too much wine. It was overnight water weight, so really only one pound a week. My goal is lower blood sugars so purposely adding fiber foods brings the calories up quickly (carrots, hummus, fruits, lentils) but lowers the protein. With one meal, I can only eat a slightly larger portion of protein, so my average protein has been lower, while total carbs are higher but net carbs still pretty low...so I am really doing a Ketogenic diet or an IF? Whatever, I feel great
