The FastDay Forum

Well Im in today after months of not diong this. I'm actually going to do 4:3 as I have a holiday Sept 4th. I have about 6 lbs to lost til then. I was doing the dukan diet and have lost about 6 lbs on that. I'm now going to keep to Dukan but also do 4:3 to try and kick start the weight loss again as I seem to have stagnated.

I had dukan bread for breaky (200 cals) and I have 200gms of chickn for lunch and that will be me for the day. I also have a 6mile run. I will do that Mon, Tues and Wed and then eat a bit more normally the rest of the week and see how I go

I'm fasting today too. I usually fast at work but I'm on holiday for the next few days so fasting at home is a new experience! Had a difficult weekend, overindulged a little and felt rotten because of it. I think it might take me a while to settle in to the routine and know my limits (I am a very greedy girl sometimes!).

I did it! I'm giving 5:2,another go as its the only approach that works for me. Had carrot sticks and no fat yoghurt for lunch and chicken sticks and stirfry veg (no oil) for dinner. Still have 130 cals left, woo hoo!

Count me in today.

I'm fasting today, 1st fast of my week 2. I started this morning with a run (training for couch to 5K), I had a very light breakfast after and now drinking plenty of water with lemon, light tea this evening of homemade veg soup, really hoping for a good result on the scales in the morning. happy fasting day everyone!!!

I'm in today and planning for Thursday too.

I had a very busy week last week with 'foody' related things all week. I did still manage to lose a pound, and do feel that I don't 'overdo' it all the time like before. Three weeks in and 2lb off - slow but steady and hopefully this week will be a good one.

Happy fasting!

I'm fasting today. The same as lenny it's my 1st fast on week 2 and my 2nd week doing c25k too. I had a good result last week so hoping to continue this week. Feel hungrier today though.

Yes I'm fasting today but may go little over because I've just had snack on return from seeing the nurse ( see my post !!! )won't go over by much but don't usually eat in the day. Good Luck All Sue

I fasted today. Its the end of the day here and ill go to bed early to take my mind off eating.

I did really well today. The past few weeks I have cheated... But today I did very well. Staying out of the kitchen helped! As did drinking lots of peppermint tea. Amazing how good it feels not to eat so much AND to accomplish my mission today! Feeling GOOD!!!

I am going to try 4:3 - three fast days this week. First time ever... And maybe never again. Lol.

I'm in today! I've been off for months but I'm anticipating (or rather hoping for) an easy return to a fasting routine. My other half has decided to try the Paleo WOL so it seemed the right time to return to some kind of eating plan for me. I've whiled my morning away with Crocheting before I have some porridge and then taking the kids and dog for a walk, anything to stop them arguing!

Good luck everyone

It's my first day! Scared and excited! I've not eaten yet and I'm genuinely fine, but I have my soup for when I need it.

Hello to you all I'm in today! Have a bit of a sore tummy today so I'm hoping that fasting today and drinking lots will help with it. I haven't weighed myself for a couple of weeks but people keep asking me if I've lost weight which is nice I can't help feeling that I'm cheating in some way though

Another great fast day and I'm off to bed. Wineoclock, I'm glad your Mum and Dad's results are positive and that the day is over for you. Imagine how much more boring it would have been if you didn't have your tablet/smartphone/ ipad and our forum!!!!

I'm in. I've been on holiday in America for a month and feel bloated and clogged up from all the indulgence. I'm at a resort with friends but my husband is fasting even though he's travelling so I am motivated to keep up the side. Here's to lots of non-food distraction to make a challenging fast day pass quickly. Allons-y!

I`m fasting today also. Starting my third week with a fast.

Happy with the results so far, so loving this way of eating.
