The FastDay Forum

Good morning or evening fellow fasters. Heres to an easy fast day for us all.

Thanks Wineoclock. I'm in. Lovely day.

Feeling totally unmotivated lately,but will give it a go! Good luck you marvellous monday members! X

Yes I'm here. Feeling hungry already which is really not a good sign - normally Monday fasts I'm fine until at least mid arvo. But sure the hunger will fade into the background.

Hi Everyone.I'm in also after a weekend of overeating.I can do the fast days but don't seem to be able to cut down on the nonfast days.I might have to increase my fast days to 3 in order to get start losing again.

Hello,
I'm in today. Like you, Calmelk46, I struggle a bit more with the nonfast days than the fast days. I've started doing MWF fasts to get back on track, and try to keep TR to around 1500 cals so can have some extra wiggle room at weekends.

Just popping in to wish you Monday fasters a good day. I fasted a day earlier than normal so seems strange not being with you Monday. @CandiceMarie wishing you a determined day!

Hi All!
I'm in too, swim done now shopping and off to Mum.
Beautiful sunny day in Sydney
Have a good fast day everyone.

Just gone midnight here and I'm a tad sleepless - so, I'm awake when I'd rather be sleeping through the first few hours of my Monday fast.

I hope that I settle soon as I've a Monday 4:3 to work my way through in addition to other bits and pieces

I'm in today, too. @nznicole, I also fast on MWF, and have also been struggling with non-fast days for quite awhile now. This past week was a good one. I had a slightly crazy Saturday, but all the other days were reasonable (except maybe yesterday's wine fest. ahem.)

Anyway, good luck Monday fasters!

Hi all, I'm in today. There's a freezing wind today. Not nice. I've been to yoga where I got dizzy and the teacher said to me: Have you eaten today? No, says me, I don't eat on Thursday. Everyone laughed and it took me a while to get the joke. Just about ready for a serve of liquorice tea. Frittata tonight with smoked salmon, capers and dill. I'll have it about 5pm so as to be finished in time for the phone meeting at 6pm. Making Christmas presents this afternoon. Have a good day all. Remember - have it tomorrow.

Hi All - I'm in too after only fasting 1 day last week!! Anyway aiming for 2 this week - fingers crossed!

Sometimes on Mondays (or anytime after more than one non-fast day in a row) I get crazy hungry in the afternoon. I hope this miso soup is enough to tide me over.

Did you get through the morning hunger OK @KataMac?
On a fast day the last few tines if I'm teaching I've been ordering an egg salad tub from the school canteen. How many calories in the do you think is in that @SallyO? I think 80 for the egg and 50 if that for the lettuce, carrot, beetroot???? I have to remember to say no to the sad plastic cheese slice they put in there. Of course I ate it! I've bought 2 BBQ chooks on special I'm going to make into a beautiful creamy salad for tomorrow s lunch but I know if I start ripping into them now I'll eat probably a thigh or 2 so they're safely in the fridge till after dinner when tum is full and temptation is not so strong. Dinner tonight chilli con carne on a bed of cooked rainbow slaw ( from woolies- its shredded beetroot,carrot and broccoli stems) off for a walk now.
Good luck everyone.

Hello everyone I'm in. Made some roasted butternut squash and bacon soup for later. Will have it with salmon. Got a cuppa soup for work in case I need something midday.
Have a good day all.
