The FastDay Forum

Heyy! I'm quite early on it because I have already made my huge 122 calorie salad for lunch (I attached a link which failed, but if you want the recipe I'll happily provide it if you PM me ) , planning on having tomato soup and toast for dinner Anyone else in ? Good luck ! Fresh week fresh start !! ( should probably mention I completely failed last week) Xx

Hi @tinamacarina
I am in today too - hope you have a better week than last week

By the way, the link that you provided somehow caused Safari to get stuck on a message "Safari cannot open this page" that kept reappearing after I clicked "ok" (tho a page was visible underneath), and the only way out was for me to clear all my history which has meant I have had to reload each page - bit of a pain. Obviously you did not intend this, but could you check that the link works ok. Thanks!

I am most definitely in for repair tomorrow!I too didnt do well last week...on friday it will be my 6 month anniversary and i want to do my very best for the next five days
Chicken salad and strawbs for dindins monday night
Hoping to do a back to back and have buttery scrambled eggs tues
Good luck fab fasters , repair well, xxx
Ps lovely photo Tina x

I'm sure you'll soon be back on the wagon CM!

Somebody is keen-but yes it will be Monday as usual for me.

I'm in for my second week.
The last fast I tried not to eat for as long as possible and got to about 10.30am. I always wake up starving. I love my breakie! It's still Sunday evening here, but I have planned my 500cals already. I will start with a run. Somehow that staves off the hunger for longer.

Hello,

I'll join you today after an indulgent weekend with icecream and cake.

I still feel very full and my body needs the time to repair and relax after all this high carbs..

Good luck to all you fellow fasters!

Hi at @tinamacarina had the same issue as @Sassy1 can you edit out your link or maybe a mod can as it was persistent and stuck and I had to exit as well and come back in.

I am fasting today, had my coffee much earlier with DS before he headed off to uni, usually a bullet coffee is my saving grace when I flag around 1pm. Anyway fluids work the best for me so will be drinking the day away green detox maybe as have been tucking into cake for DS's birthday celebration cake.

All the best everyone who is in

I'm in! Woken up hungry which is very unusual for me as I don't eat breakfast anymore. Maybe it has something to do with me frying up leftover ( frozen) Christmas ham and eggs for my boys before I sent them off to school? Maybe a cup of tea will help?
What's for dinner everyone. I'm going to try @carorees baked veges rubbed in pesto and a little BBQ chicken thigh on the side.

The link worked ok for me,@tinamacarina. Looks like a salad to look forward to. I'm in today. I'll eat nothing except a miso soup at around 2pm, if desperate.For dinner I'm planning a Vietnamese Prawn salad: vermecelli rice noodles, with cucumber, prawns, chilli, mint, coriander and cashews and a dressing of rice vinegar, fish sauce, garlic, sugar and lemon juice. It's a recipe in the 2004 Delicious Magazine by Ben O'Donoghue. I just did an internet search for it so I could put in a link, but it wouldn't come up. It's attached to a speel about how he lost weight for his wedding. Lots of other prawn salads came up though. Prawns are a perfect diet food. Have a good day everyone, and especially the newbies. Just think of tomorrow.

I'm in...after a very indulgent weekend:(

Hey girls, so sorry for faffing up your computers taken it off now. Glad it worked for you Sallyo, that dinner sounds absolutely lush! Enjoy! Good luck everyone else, know how you feel with over indulgence..! x

I'm definitely in. Too much baking, curries, homemade bread and alcohol. Nearly two kilos heavier than last Friday

Started the day with workout at the gym but had some yoghurt and blueberries afterwards.

I am in today thanks @tinamacarina - I was also able to read the article, with thanks.

Great menu for your meal tonight @Sallyo - sounds delicious.

Have a great day everybody

cheers Maggie

I'm in. A nice calm day planned, nothing to do but practise the St Matthew Passion. On second thoughts it may not remain calm as I have difficulty in fitting in the German words! Anyone know some good swear words in German?
