The FastDay Forum

Hi everyone,

I will be fasting today, Monday, December 2nd after celebrating Thanksgiving with my hubby and family.

A bit too much to eat and I'm up 2 pounds. Yikes.

The good news -- I'm back on track.

Well done for getting straight back on the fasting horse.

Holidays are there to be enjoyed and I bet the 2lb will be gone by next week.

I think the fact that I actually fasted last Monday helped my gain not to be worse. I think it also is water weight as well because I have a tendency to retain fluids.

Thanks for the encouragement to move on.

Right there with you, Andi! I'm going to be positive and think of all the damage I'm undoing and preventing by getting right back on the fasts this week (versus spiraling out of control after a holiday week as I would typically have done in the past.)

Good luck!

Well done for being back on track and good luck with the fast today

Your post is motivating me - I'm so not good at having my routine broken and huge delicious celebratory dinners are such a temptation. I was absolutely fine on thanksgiving day but for some reason, the next day saw me having such cravings and the second thanksgiving dinner I had on Saturday was a complete blowout

I fasted yesterday which went smoothly but today I'm back craving chocolate, and I gave into the craving

I daren't weigh myself, gonna fast again tomorrow to hopefully make up for things
