The FastDay Forum

OK - so ever since my holiday(s) i've been struggling to get back into the swing of things

My weight has yo-yo'd back and forth between a few lbs

BUT TODAY! i think i've cracked it - my 1st day in AGES to manage a fast day! I've been watching the calorie intake but always got to lunch and felt SO hungry i could not contemplate fasting

Today, although it was "planned" i just cracked on and tried not to think about it too much and it's nearly 5.30 and dinner-time

I asked the time old question - "am i hungry or do I just think i need to eat?"

Here's to the road to recovery! next planned fast will be Thursday now - fingers crossed!!
slow and steady we go!!

Welcome back! That's a good question to ask because it stops you eating from habit or boredom. I fasted yesterday and felt hungry quite early on but was determined not to eat until about 4pm as this works best for me - I just drank plenty of fluids all day. So well done!

I've not fallen off the fasting wagon myself yet but I've come very close to it a few times. Good to see you back on board and remember - take each day at a time. Slipping off isn't uncommon, as these forums testify, but it's not hard to restart.

Thank you! it's great when you get support from fellow fasters!

I think that's why i decided to come back on-line!
