Fasting today, Friday, May 9
09 May 2014, 00:05
I'm in. Is anyone else?

I'm having a much needed fast after a bit of a melt down, I mean carb load, day yesterday.
I'm in today for my 3rd and final fast of the week. The scales are being very kind to me this week, got my fingers crossed they'll still be as kind at weigh in tomorrow. Hope you're having a good easy fastday @MaryAnn :)
I was beginning to think I was on my own today, @justdee! I'm having a good fast day. I'm looking forward to my fish and asparagus dinner tonight. It's already 4pm in Japan.

Have a good one!
Was just going to start this when I saw your post. Friday does not seem to be a popular day! My third fast of the week too. Not very focused today but will stay with it as don't feel much like eating anyway!
Best of luck Friday Fab Fasters xxx
Thanks @candicemarie. I think you have been on your own for most of it @MaryAnn,(well, we were fasting too but we were asleep so it's been much easier for us :) ) Glad you're in with me @bobshouse, I'm sure they'll be a few more joining us later. When maryann goes off to bed later we'll drag each other to the finish line. This time tomorrow we'll be happy to have another 4:3 done. Good luck :)
Yup that is how I look at it. Planning to get out in the garden today but first have to make a difficult phone call. My dear demented dad is in 'very sheltered accomodation' ( yes that is what they call it now) and they have contacted me to say that when having lunch dad expects staff to carry his tray to his table. This has to be paid for! Dad is 82, walks with a stick, is bent over and has had a stroke. We pay a fortune to maintain his independence! I will struggle to be polite!
Good morning fasters! My OH & I are in fasting today & I'm certainly hoping to have lost some weight this week.
I hope you have a good day :grin:
Much needed today.
I'm in after eating rubbish yesterday!
Happy fasting everyone x
I'm glad a few more of you are fasting with us. Hope you all have an easy day.
@Bobshouse how bad is that? I would go mad. Wouldn't you just do that for someone anyway. I can't believe these people. I'm mad for you now. I hope everything goes well and you get it sorted. I thought the staff at these places were called "carers". Don't let the stress throw you off track.
I tried contacting the mental health manager but answerphone! Have emailed asking for a response today but nothing. My father has dementia, which is why he is in this place. His previous home was shut down and it took months of fighting to get him a place elsewhere that I was happy with. Social services promised support but it never happened. As dad can dress and feed himself we could not get any funding so it is all done privately.
Sticking with my fast, will not let this wreck it!
I am not fasting i was but i ballsed it up bigtime. AAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!
Oh dear, never mind new day tomorrow. That is the joy of 5:2.
Oh well @debsie better look next time. We all have days like that.
Well done @bobshousefor being determined even with other stuff going on. Hope you can sort thing out for your dad soon. I am soooo in the right head space at the moment, I hope it last.
