The FastDay Forum

[janeg]

Is Friday the new Sunday? Only me today? Surely not!
Third for me and a proper one as Monday was my ' sort of ' where it worked all day until the chip shop beckoned at tea time. So , Beloved is away and it'll be easy to do the poached eggs.
Might make bread as I'm missing the home made stuff now. The novelty of plain Mother's Pride is wearing off. Just need to get to know the new oven. And work yeast in the cooler temeperature...
Gool luck fellow fasters if any

edited to put on the right date - tube!

I usually do a half fast on Fridays, get to exercise class, and save my first meal till my groceries have been delivered. Often having some gorgeous fresh bread. But this really equates to an eating window style of fasting. As I usually skip breakfast anyway it's no hardship to be honest.

I'm in ...just popping in quick as really busy with month end preparations at work but hopefully that will help with taking my mind off food

Again I don't feel like I have had a very good week but then I might have a skewed view of what a good week is ..not sure .. we shall see on the scales on Tuesday.

Happy fasting all

I'm fasting today too. Trying to do alternate days which is working out quite well. I think my body is liking the rest from food lol.
Happy fasting everyone x

Hi RedRobin,

I'm with you today. I did great fasts Monday/Wednesday. Nice low cal day Tuesday but yesterday.... I had a rack of ribs and a bottle of white wine lol. I'm supposed to be getting my holiday weight off, not increasing it. I guess I don't want to leave my holiday behind, yet lol. Gained 1lb.

If I stick to 400 cals, one meal this evening I should lose 2lbs and then only be 1lb away from my pre holiday weight. In 3 weeks I have gained 8lbs, lost 6lbs, and gained a lb lol. Let's see it just going down from today.

Good luck Friday fasters.

My third FD this week as the last couple of pounds have been stubborn - delighted to say that I reached my Goal Weight this morning. After 9 weeks of 5:2 I have lost a total of 14 lbs - can't believe it. Wanted to go out and celebrate, so went wild and had a fresh orange juice!! Still intending to finish this Fast Day as I have a 3-course Thai Lunch booked tomorrow - my first ever so I want to be able to try all the dishes!
