The FastDay Forum

I'm still here too after completing 12 weeks on this WOE. Like Horseygirl this is the longest I have stuck at an eating plan and fasting twice a week is now a habit. I too can leave food on my plate and dont feel I have to eat everything. Weight loss has been slow but my clothes are looser are people are noticing I'm looking slimmer.
I love it and can't see me changing except, perhaps, to try a liquid fast now and again. For the past 2 fasts I haven't felt many hunger pangs so might give it a go on Thursday.

So, here we are in June and how many of us are still here?

Still here, converted a few members of my family along the way. People at work have noticed how much weight I've lost and I plan to continue.

I made 3 months today

I'm not.

Just realised I'm at my three month mark too! Hadn't even realised, it doesn't feel like I've been dieting at all. When I first started it was mainly out of curiosity -- can I only eat 500 cals in 1 day? And I started noticing results and have had no reason or urge to stop since - Brilliant!!

I am on 11 weeks this week so I suppose I have to wait till next week before I can claim the 3 months . I am at my target weight now but would like to loose a few more lb's If I could only stop the wrinkles appearing on my face and get rid of the granny tummy. (I have always been a dreamer.

I'm still here! I just love this way of eating, especially as it is so flexible. I started at the end of January so it's over 4 months for me. My progress is slow compared to some, but I'm fine with that. I still haven't persuaded my OH to join me though. I'll still be here next year and beyond, and there may well be less of me by then. Well done everyone!

I'm still here & my OH has been fasting today at work. This week I will fast tomorrow to coincide with a fasting health screening check. It was so easy losing the weight I put on whilst away for a few days. I have just noticed the thread on 16:8ing that I might try to pep my body because I don't really need to eat breakfast everyday. It is nice to see so many of you who started in January keeping going & you longer than that 5:2ers are inspiring.

I'm still here. When I use to go on a diet, I would know exactly how long I had been on it. This woe suits me perfectly. I tweek it every so often so it does not feel like a diet - just a life style.

I'll be here. I just had a 4-day bash -- friends, wedding, birthday etc. -- and managed to gain 5 lbs in that short time.... Today is a fast day, and I suspect I won't lose all of this as water weight (HA!)! So I'm thinking I'll be around for the long haul. I doubt I'll ever get to "maintenance" mode!

Five months on, still here, hopefully still losing though I will check the scales tomorrow. Might reach a satisfactory weight by Christmas ...

I'm still here and now going into 4th month.

Yep, still here, this is a life long commitment now I've been doing this for 7 months (started November last year) - still going strong - little sign of flagging !
That's a first for me I can tell you. The weight's still coming off, albeit slowly

2 days to go to my 3 month anniversary on 5.2 At the moment doing 6.1 but will go back to 5.2 next week. It's funny but I find 6.1 harder than 5.2, not the fast day itself but think I am overeating on the 6. However I am sleeping a lot better...?! Hope to be doing 5.2 or a variation of it FOR LIFE!
