The FastDay Forum

@RedRobin
They are different in my experience like those FDs with days in between are as well. I have had back-to-back FDs when everything was sooo easy I could not believe it. Then, like today, I am rrrrrrreally very hungry and my tum is loud. And I think of eating often. I do it only on occasions.
Have not tried eating-windows at all yet. There are quite a few members on here who do that successfully on holidays and extra-munchie-occasions. Maybe that is for you, too.

Oh my... am I looking forward to 6:30 p.m. dinner time...

Good day everyone
M

I'm with you there @Mahalo! Looking forward to dinner time tonight as well...plus my Cheerios of course!
Happy Fasting Friday everyone xx

Ok, I'm looking forward to tomorrow now...big time!

Know why i am lookin forward to Tomorrow @nursebean @mahalo et al?
Coz - my new rule - the last day of every month, i ' m no gonna calorie count! Not gonna go crazy but for once in the month, i free myself from the tyrrany of calcounting! X phew will be soooo nice! Woohooooo!

Sounds great. Nice idea, indeed @CandiceMarie.

I would have a nice glass of wine tomorrow... But I am in a challenge until 21 of March and won't - not this or next month Commitments must be followed...

So we have a lot of shared joys here CM and @nursebean and all others who look forward to weekend's food (if not fasting), haven't we

Ate my dinner far too quickly ARGH And my tum is even louder now than when empty

Hiiii @mahalo! Yes a grrrreat weekend i hope! X
I am always happy when i am...

Fasting here too. I took the day off work to get caught up around that house. It's always dangerous for me to fast with the refrigerator nearby. Although I'm managing so far, I've been cleaning house all morning and got hungry so I've already had my 100 cal of protein I normally save for lunch. It's going to be a long afternoon. Hopefully I can keep busy. Good luck every one!!!

Well I've got tomorrow to look forward to but Sunday will be a fast!
Enjoy yourself tomorrow Candy...but don't go crazy!!
I've had my meal...now just a bowl of Cheerios to look forward to

I almost forgot to come in here today. I was really hungry at work today but got over that and managed to do my weekly messages (food shop) straight after work. I am now fantasizing about all the food I can have tomorrow but probably won't have. I had half a pizza (465 cals) for dinner tonight and a 10 cal jelly. Pizza probably isn't the best choice for a fast day but it was what I really wanted and it tasted great. My feet are painfully cold so I'm just off to fill up a hot water bottle and sit at the kitchen table and do some paperwork. What an exciting Friday night. I can't wait until Sunday evening when I can open a bottle of wine - I'll have been dry for the whole of January.

@wildmissus i loved that you said " messages" ...
We used to always call shopping messages..but it seems to have died out where i live
I think as kids it was always " messages" coz your Mum and / orNan sent you,with strict instructions about which shops to go to...queueing in each shop - no supermarket...remembering Mum / Nans 'divi' number at the Co op!
I can still remember both numbers to this day!
Keep those tootsies warm and enjoy yr Sunday wine! Well done on yr dry January! X

Pizza? On a fast day?!

@nursebean, yep, a bit of a mistake because I'm hungry now. Having a 40 cal hot chocolate then I'm off to bed before I raid the cupboards!

@wildmissus..i too indulging in a 40 cal drink then gettin the hell out of it to bed..not hungry just want to eat!x
@nursebean i thought i'd follow Nursy's example and bought a few M n S meals..unfortunately, ive bought ones that serve two! Doh!
Schoolboy error!

Been a very busy Fast Day but that helps it to flow evenly.

Good Luck to those with many more hours still to go.

Last one on as usual. I have an hour and half till bedtime and am doing well. Ate a nice meal of salad, a few pecans for protein and half a tortilla. They are so good toasted until crispy, in little wedges. I am pleasantly full and have just made some tea in my little teapot and will sip it in a beautiful Royal Albert tea cup to make it special and satisfying. I'm looking forward to my sleep tonight. My darn neighbour was out scraping the frost off his car at 6:30 this morning, right under my bedroom window so I moved to the couch in the living room, then when I'd just fallen asleep my other neighbour started shoveling the sidewalks this time under the living room windows!! #@$%^ I'm hoping for a restful night tonight. At least it isn't snowing so there'll be no snow shoveling!
Sweet dreams everyone.
