Not sure what I'll find but nor am I too concerned because as I've said, weight loss is a bonus beside the metabolic changes which can be expected to happen. As a TOFI I'm vulnerable to coronary problems so my motivation is to lower blood cholesterol and ensure my other bloods are on the correct side of the ledger when I next get tested....

I also have had a chocolate frog this afternoon just before our dress rehearsal this afternoon (naughty me!) I was planning on having very little this afternoon and then a small dinner, but then my friend invited me to have Chinese tonight and I couldn't resist. I'll have to see how I go, but I have both a breakfast and a dinner meeting tomorrow so I'm going to have to restrain myself from overeating tonight. I may post again later to stop myself from eating any dessert after dinner. As usual I can see my weekend destroying all of my good work, but I'm so determined this time! I WILL HAVE WEIGHT LOSS ON SUNDAY!!!]]> <![CDATA[Fast day 22 thoughts]]> https://forum.fastday.com/blog/Joyful+Janet/fast_day_22_thoughts_b-375_sid-d83096c916d4cf8920ee411527bd2920.html 2013-04-11T13:02:36+00:00 2013-04-11T13:02:36+00:00

Since 21 st January I have lost 6 lbs and 1.5 inches off my waist; I have successfully done 21 fasts. It's 11 1/2 weeks since I started and I know I will continue to have fasting days in my life. :snail:

Fasting has become more important to me since I was diagnosed with osteoarthritis. Losing weight can only make me fitter and healthier, and fasting may help to fight inflammation, reduce pain and slow the progression. :like: ...

They are not happy about it but using the right language pushed them to agree. My eldest daughter who helps him out with laundry, shopping and cleaning will check each time she goes in that someone is there.
With regard to my cat, I visited her again today and she has had the nasal tube removed but still has the drip. She is eating a little now and was quite chatty with me. When I got up to go she tried to follow me. We are to go again tomorrow afternoon and there is a chance we will bring her home. She will be on medication and special food for a while and will need regular checks.
I am pleased to say my stress levels have reduced drastically.]]>
