The FastDay Forum

Is anyone else in today?

I had a bit of a disaster of a day yesterday, so today feels much needed. I plan to fast on Thursday, too, while I'm traveling to the US.

Good luck, Tuesday fasters

Im trying to fast i'm struggling today after eating bad yesterday!

already had a coffee rice cakes and cup of soup!!

fingers crossed!

These days I always end up nibbling a lot during the day. It means my dinner has to be smaller, but so far it hasn't been a problem...

I'm in as well, for a regular fast day on my 6:1 strategy. In for 'just another day at the office'. Sounds perhaps a bit boring, but isn't routine about making (fasting) life simpler and more easy?
Have a nice fast day.

I am fasting as well. I now notice that my weight has begun to creep up!
So I have decided to do the 5:2 for the next three weeks, to get my system back to where it was behaving nicely. This means Tuesday ans Thursday fasting for me. Nothing much until suppertime! It is only 10:45 here now, so it'll be a long wait.
It is so great we have the fasting tool to correct any blips in the system. Good luck everyone fasting today!

I've been away from the forum for a couple of weeks, and had a couple of not very good fasting weeks to match (I blame the bank holiday). But normality has resumed, and I'm back to my Tuesday and Thursday fasts! And it's raining so no temptation to go to the shops at lunchtime

I'm not eating until a small snack when I get home from work this evening, followed by some turkey chilli which I cooked last week. Love having pre-made freezer meals on fasting days.

Good luck to everyone else!

I'm in today, having managed to pile on an extra 4.1 pounds over my target whilst I had family staying last week! I have already disposed of 3.4 pounds of it by fasting on Sunday and not over-eating yesterday but further effort is required to restore my 'wiggle room'! Nothing will pass my lips, except black tea and water, until chicken casserole and vegetables this evening. I find that if I eat anything at all, I just can't stop nibbling - so abstinence is my answer!

Good luck to all fasting today. Onwards and downwards!

I'm not fasting today but good luck to all those who are, you can do it!

Fasting today. I didn't yesterday as I woke up and wasn't in the mood. I've been doing ADF for two weeks, alternating FDs with NFDs and just think my body needed an extra day when I wasn't fasting. So Sunday and Monday have been "normal" days for me, and my plan is to start today with another fortnight of ADF. Still enjoying it a lot, though.

Off to walk the dog. Happy fast day everyone!

I'm in today as well. My usual Monday fast went belly up. Was a continuation of terrible eating on the weekend. I really need this fast and I'm hoping I can go back to low carb for the rest of the week with another fast on Friday. I haven't checked my weight since Saturday but no need. I know I've gained, my pants aren't as loose anymore . Planning on not eating until 4 ish or maybe later if I can manage it. I'm in the same boat as many, once I start eating I don't want to stop! Good luck all fellow fasters! We CAN make it through the day!

Hope everyone's managing ok so far today? I started to struggle and had a moan at work so got given a raspberry and echinacea tea. Well, it tastes pretty horrible (I'm not a fruit/herbal tea fan) but has successfully put me off wanting to drink it, or eat anything else for that matter!
