Could I? Should I? Would I? Would'nt I? Did I? Didn't I?I DID - AND I ENJOYED not one but two delicious pancakes each with choc spread and freshly chopped strawberries,raspberries and apricot :shock: How many cals :?: Did'nt dare to try to calculate :dazed: But then I had moved my fast day to Today and could always do an extra repair day if needed (COULD'NT I?) :grin: SCALES SAY 62.4 :lol: STILL GOING DOWN :heart: How did everyone else do?

By jove I think I've got it! 2 weeks in and I think I've cracked it! I am totally loving liquid fasting, I rarely feel hungry but just get a bit tetchy and slightly miserable early evening - I can live with that (not sure about my family but I'm fine! :confused: )
I still want to fit 3 fasts a week in but find liquid fasting harder at the weekend - life's about little pleasures like meeting friends for coffee and actually having a lovely milky coffee, a glass of Bailey's on a saturday night, a biccie on sunday afternoons. So, I'm nothing if not adaptable and have come up with my own personalisation; sunday 500 cal fast, tuesday and thursday liquid fast. How fabulous is this diet? I'm making rules that work for me without feeling like a naughty schoolgirl everytime I tweek the original ones. Those diet clubs I (and probably most of you) ploughed money into for years had better watch...

This is my second day fasting and so far, it hasn't been too bad! I ran some errands, mailed a package, and went to the grocery store. Now I'm in the process of making some vegan sausages. It's keeping me nice and busy... I tripled the recipe to make a huge batch, and it's going to take about 2 hours for them to finish steaming. Later, I want to make some more eggplant bacon and an egg white + veggie omelette. Yum!!

I was also hoping to make some miso soup, but none of the stores I've been to carry miso paste. Sad face! :frown: I may end up making a veggie chicken noodle soup with some celery, carrots, tofu, and a bouillon cube, and freeze the leftovers. Then for non-fasting days, I can heat it up, throw some noodles in there,...

Hi
i have been doing this diet for 4 weeks now and although i have lost 5lb which im very happy about i feel its taking a long time to come off :frown:

i have a high bmi so was hoping it would come off a little faster my husband has been doing the same diet and cheating and has lost a stone ! (he has been dieting a bit longer than me )

I started to weigh my self every day and note it down but i just kept going up each time so not a good idea for me so here is the plan: i weigh every Wednesday from now on i will NOT look at my scales until next Wednesday, i will change my fast day to Tuesday instead of Monday as then i only have one day in between my next fast day Thursday and im going to try really hard ,

i think im fed up due to having a broken foot for the last 4 weeks and only just found out (i just thought badly bruised .... that's another story ) and ear infection

sorry to moan i do...
