Fabulous weekend of fun, well washed down with red wine and real ale. Looking forward to fast today and waking up tomorrow feeling better than I do now.

Weight loss stalled for over 2 months now, so I'm really hoping it'll break soon. I'm out to dinner tomoz, but otherwise a quiet week, so hopefully low carb and NEAT will be effective
Yes I'm in. I have a tricky week ahead so keen to get this under my belt!
I'm in too, after a fabulous weekend which involved a 3 day food and wine festival... so yes, enjoying today's fast. Although I am feeling bloody hungry now at 5pm, luckily have a game of soccer in an hour which will help get rid of the hunger waves.
I'm in as well. Was working on Saturday but had a great day sailing yesterday. It was pretty windy so we had to work hard to keep the boat from capsizing so my muscles ache today.

I've been 4:3ing over the past few weeks and whilst it work initially it isn't now. I have found myself with many failed fasting days and I've been eating poorly on normal days. So back to 5:2 and the Hairy Dieters new book for tomorrow's dinner.
That's an awful lot of paper to eat wildmissus! :lol:
Did a cheeky Sunday fast yesterday so I could have a Monday fast free to make a change and because I may fast Tuesday this week as might fit in better so I'm done! Good luck Monday fasters :0)
I'm in too, with not much left of the day now, thankfully! Was a lovely day so whiled away the afternoon gardening. Torchwood and Beauty and the Beast on tv tonight so that should occupy me for the rest of the evening! :smile:

Hope you get results soon Minumonline! :heart:
I am in too. 2 liquid fasts in a row, today and tomorrow and probably a 16:8 on wednesday as I'll have a big and nasty day and won't be hungry for breakfast anyway. :wink:
I'm in for a complete liquid fast today - much needed after a very indulgent weekend!

ATB to everyone fasting today.
Not the easiest today, but totally doable. Snuggled on the sofa now with a cup of tea and my knitting, looking forward to lots of loveliness and liveliness for the rest of the week.

In theory I'm just starting out on 16:8 on feed days, I'm out tomorrow night, so should open my window around 1.00pm. Not sure how that's going to work, as I'm usually starving the morning after a liquid fast (I've been known to get up and cook breakfast at 5.00am !) I want to give it a try though, as I'm sure once I make it habit I'll find it OK.
Just passed a major test!

24 hours into my fast, and I've cooked my wife's fast day meal for her - an omelette, m/waved potato and peas.

And I've watched her eat it while we're watching the Hairy Bikers - and I had a black coffee!

Cheese and mushroom omelette:
1 whole egg and two egg whites
100g fried mushrooms
20g grated cheese

With 100g potato and 50g frozen peas with brown sauce.

Comes to a little over 300 cals.

Only 4-5 hours 'til bedtime! :smile:
Bahaha Minumonline I do that regularly! Now it's back to decent weather, I'm at least taking the dog for a walk first, so it was about 7 this morning. (And oh what a breakfast, Pumpkin seed bread toast with cream cheese, avo and tomato, plus banana, strawberries and a few macadamia s for "dessert", all washed down with cups of tea... Mmmmmmm)
Liquid fasting today but I'm only 5-6 hours from bedtime now. My son just made dinner and the house smells fantastic. Mouth is watering so it's time for a great big swallow of water. ;)

Looking forward to breakfast tomorrow after AM exercise and weigh in.
Second day of my liquid fast. The really big issue I have is with cold. My hands and feet are crazy cold and it's sometimes a pain in the butt. :curse:

I really prefer liquid fast to "normal" fast. It's easier to deal with. It seems that the fact to not have to chew don't trigger my hunger and I don't feel it. Even on the second day.

Tonight will be another soup, maybe a vietnamese these time with all the flavours and spices :grin:
What are you guys having for your liquid fasts? I haven't checked this thread before.
