I have been back for three weeks but a day and a half after our return from a month away in North America, we were called upon to look after our two granddaughters while their parents moved from Belgium back to England. We had the girls for just over a fortnight and we took them back on Monday, this week. I was exhausted!
I got started back with the fasting on Tuesday and have dropped five of my extra eleven (!!!) pounds already. You can imagine how much time I have spent dashing back and forth to the loo - getting rid of all the extra fluid I was carrying around!
So today has been my second fast of the week and I have been careful not to go too mad on the the other days. Having got rid of the excess fluid, I now have the long slog to get rid of the other six pounds but I have done it before and I hope that it won't take to long to shift.
Good luck to anyone else fasting today. I have had nothing except my usual black tea today but am now going to prepare something delicious for dinner!
