The FastDay Forum

One kilogram was added over the weekend so time for another Monday fast. Dinner is the same as last Monday, beef chow mein with less mince and more cabbage/carrots. It's grey and overcast here today so that will be a nice comforting meal come 6pm. Anyone joining me?

Yea, I'm here, as usual. My weekends and Mondays have become weird recently. i used to put on weight at week ends when I have wine and dessert with my evening meal. Last night I had a very large piece of apple pie with cream on top!!!
But I lost weight on a Saturday and did not gain any more by this morning. 56.6 kg.
I tend to eat very little on Mondays, and before I always lost on a Monday. But last Monday my weight stayed the same
I've tested my scales, they are accurate.
So the answer, I know, is to plod on, what ever the scales say!!! The weight IS dropping, all be it slowly.

A fast day for me too, started at 7.30pm last night and hoping to get 23 hours done before eating salmon salad tonight. I've drunk a lemon tea and 2 coffees so far.
Onwards and good health to you all.

Hi all. I'm in today. I've been swimming and walking this morning and now doing a bit of gardening, although the clouds are gathering ominously at the moment.
Something veggie for this evening's meal.
On my last fast day I managed well all day on water and the occasional tea then ate in the evening. However the floodgates opened then and I didn't stop nibbling...it turned into an 800 day rather than 500. Trying to be more disciplined this evening! I keep repeating my friend's favourite mantra that this is a marathon not a sprint.
Have a good day X

after a nice weekend with eating and drinking (within bounds), BruceE and I are ready for a fast day today.

Espresso and tea in the morning, followed by beef veggie chili tonight.

I'm in for my usual Monday fast; just after noon here, so have had black coffee and am having my green tea now. "The usual" the rest of the day: Broth, snack, dinner...
