The FastDay Forum

I'm starting off it seems. Have been doing better keeping my TDEE all week and am feeling fine. A step at a time! If anyone else is fasting, have a good day.

Hi! I'm really new and this is my first fast day. Going well so far... had 2 slices watermelon at midday and just woke up from a nap and had a cup of vegetable stock broth. Haven't felt really hungry yet, just have to retrain my brain as it's wondering why I'm not eating so much!
Dinner tonight is some stir fry broccoli, carrots, asparagus and tofu. (I'm not vegetarian, but DH is)

Yes I'm on too.
4.3, 16.8 low carb and no alcohol. Phew.......that's gotta do it surely.

I'm in today, probably not a strict 500 cals but, like weds, a small eating window (snack at 3, meal at 7.30), and keeping it low.
Have a good day folks!

I'm in! It's 4pm and time for a miso soup, I think! I've been busy busy busy today, so I've barely noticed!

Good luck, Friday fasters!

One of my regular 4:3 - if it's Friday, I must be fasting.

Good Luck to my fellow fasters.

I'm in the last of 4:3 for the week. Had to resist a yummy slice of chocolate cake already BUT….. I resisted.
Got to get this weight moving on down….. All the best fellow fasters

Like my commitment , although it's 5:2 with those same add-ons. It has had positive effect after a week already.

I'm fasting today as well. This is the third fast of the week, my first 4.3 so it feels a bit weird to be fasting on a Friday (no wine tonight!) but I've gained so much weight since the start of this year I need to make a good start! Fingers crossed the scales are nice to me on Saturday morning. Good luck everyone today. C x

I'm in today. It's been a 4:3 week for me, the first in a while.

I'm In today too. Feeling good this week. Have cut down the carbs on non fast days and don't feel as tired or have any cravings. 10 days to break a habit so hopefully by this time next week I'll feel even better. Got to stop the sugar highs and lows!

Have a good weekend everyone. X

I am in for an today, not ever my usual day but this week has been mixed up by social events etc. Looking forward to low/?no calorie day and especially to no alcohol (over-indulged past 2 days and don't feel well ).
Good luck everyone

I am fasting today, because it is my regular maintenance fast day. Haven't eaten anything yet today. My upstairs room is colder than the rest of the house. I was so cold that I was shaking, so made myself a hot water bottle. Lovely. I weighed 53.9 kg this morning, hoping to shift some of that.. Success to all and sundry!

Doing well. Third coffee. Saving my calories for tonight as we have a rare night without our 6 year old so eating something nice later on! How smug do you feel when you do a good fast day.

Welcome to the new fasters!
Today is my regular fasting day too. Sore throat and feeling yuck. Already going strong on the hot lemon tea. Looks like a nap may be in order for today.
