The FastDay Forum

I wasn't going to fast again until Sunday but it seemed a long way away so I thought why not. Might as well get three in again this week before I start drinking alcohol again when my Dryathlon is over. There is no point even pretending I will have the same restraint then!
I'm at home so lazing around watching rubbish tv. I like doing nothing on a fast day, makes it much easier for me.

Hi all

I've had a third fast this week for pretty much the first 4:3 week. I've been playing about with the same few pounds for months now so I figured I'd give a Friday fast a go and it's been ok, although I know I will have gone over 500cals by bedtime. I had 5 thin oatcakes at lunchtime (150 cals) and then a chocolate as they were being passed round & I could have taken one home or said no but I thought stuff it I'm having one, and with the spag bol for dinner I doubt I'll clock in much less than 800 cals, but hey ho that's a lot less than I'd usually get through on a Friday and I've done 2 much stricter days this week already so this is just a bonus. Usually by Monday I've put back on the couple of pounds I dropped on mon/weds, so hopefully this will help get things moving again.

Just a select bunch of Friday fasters here -happy Australia day to all those down under, cold, wet and miserable here tonight!

Well done to everyone completing three fasts this week. In the end my day wasn't too bad because I kept busy ironing. My OH & I have just eaten Beef meatballs & spaghetti from the M & S Fuller Longer meals that was very good. I followed that with mango & my OH had banana & yoghurt & papaya so very enjoyable. Now I have to wait to weigh in the morning to see if I have lost any weight this week!

Job done (thanks to a busy day)!!
