The FastDay Forum

Just starting us off

I'm in today! It's already 2.30pm here in NSW and I'm feeling empowered!

We are celebrating Australia Day at the Childcare centre where I work, so it's been sausage sandwiches, ice creams and green and yellow jelly and cake, and that's for the children! I was sent out to buy morning tea for the staff this morning and came back with lamingtons, white choc and macadamia cookies and sticky date cookies. I've even surprised myself by not breaking down But I'm proud to say, I have not even had a taste
Even when I had to go into the kitchen and make 2 plates of food for some children that were asleep!
This is not at all normal for me! Usually, at the first hurdle, I will decide to postpone the fast, so I'm very impressed. And somehow, the longer the day gets, the stronger I am feeling! Woohoo!

Good luck to anyone else fasting today

Well done Catamo!

I'm in for my second fast this week. Also today I am home with my sick child, and I find it much more difficult fasting when home. Also, have not slept good this night (kid was crying a lot), and been up since 5 Hoping to find the energy to do some house cleaning today to keep myself busy

Thanks @cyan!

Still going strong. It's definitely harder at home and I find it more challenging when I'm tired too. So good luck!!

Not fasting but he thread seemed a bit lonely so hi "waves". Yes well done not eating all the yummy food and well done fasting on a Friday, I enjoy Friday drinks to much to fast.

At my last fast, also at home, I decided to watch "Super Size Me". I'm not gonna do the same mistake today

WOW!!

I'm in today 3/3 which means its Friday!!! I love this fast day so much, it always means tomorrow I can sleep in, eat whatever, and it's another week of work over and closer to half term!

Have a great fast day all xxx

Hi all

I'm joining you today.
Catamo - impressive restraint! I find on fast days that I am really aware of the smell of food which makes it seem all the more tempting.
Have a good day everyone.

Where is everyone?
I may be joining you fasters today. I've already done two this week. So if I haven't lost anything when I get back from ex class, I will be in for another.
Watch this space.



I do like a Friday fast too @daydreamer21 for nearly all the same reasons. A way hey weekend. I'm not a sleeping in person.

Edit. Ive shifted a pound this week on good old 5.2, so no fast today, just 16.8

What happened @Cyan !!

As for me, well this is my FOURTH, yes you read it correctly, FOURTH fast this week! I have been yo-yoing from 11:12 to 11:11 for blimin ages now (not even a week in reality!) and today I got on the scales and what did I find?...I am now...(drum roll)...11:12...doh!

Hey oh...better luck tomorrow

Bean

Joining you today with a third fast & hoping it might make my weigh scales MOVE in a downwards direction!
Hope you all have a good day

I'm in! Lost 2kg this week but we will see what official weigh in day tomorrow reveals so feeling very pleased. Feels like I am back on track and enjoying fasting again after xmas and struggling to get back into it.
Happy fasting everyone!

Wasn't supposed to fast today but did a bit of a sweet binge last night and, as I am feeling like crap, decided a good repair day will be my best option. So coffee, lemon and soup for me today

Good luck everyone !
