The FastDay Forum

Its still early evening here but I plan to join you tomorrow, Monday 3 Feb

It's been 2 weeks since my last fast so I'm curious to see how it goes.

Good luck everyone and see you later

I'm in. As others have said another hot day in Oz. I'm just letting my hair dry naturally before I turn the fan on. Otherwise it can result in a strange windswept look!

Just off to bed now (with The Luminaries) but will definitely be fasting tomorrow. Feel bloat right now...too much water me thinks!

Happy fasting everyone!

I am in as well... Too many Haribo's over the weekend. Good that OH is in Kalgoorlie the next couple of days, that will keep my mind busy.

How are you coping with the heat on the east coast and SA?

Yet another fantastic avatar @nursebean.
Well the headache has gone to be replaced by a pulled thigh muscle after my HIT this morning, I feel like Im slowly falling apart today

Some of you really start your day early!

I'm in today too, lots and lots of water and a lunchtime coffee should get me through the day. One good thing about the heat is that it makes you feel less hungry but I'm counting on the forecast midday cool change so I can get some gardening done; the garden is looking rather woeful. Why is it that while the 'proper' plants suffer from the heat, the weeds just thrive?

Have a lovely day everyone!

I'm definitely in after the scales showed a 2kg increase since Friday morning. Water, black coffee, peppermint tea and one miso until 6.30pm tonight.

After 2.5 days off over the weekend, I am *so* in today.

Yup! Fast #1 this week.

@Wineoclock and @Sallyo - I do wake early!! On non fast days I'm up early too - but having breakfast, so jumping in here to post on a fast day replaces breakfast time and definitely gets me into a good frame of mind for the day. Wino - hope you can get on top of that headache quickly, it's tough fasting when you're not feeling the best.

@Candicemarie - that otter pic makes me laugh too - they're such cheeky gorgeous creatures. Always my favourite to watch at the zoo - I've never seen one in the wild. I thought this one looked like it was just popping in to make a comment a bit like I do now and then!

See all you northern hemisphere Monday fasters soon!

exactly @Otter! He looks like he is going to start chatting...looks like he would be verh decisive in his points of view doesnt he!x

Yes I'm here, first Monday fast for a while.
January is always hard to get back into normal routine!
Feeling hungry but will def wait till 6ish for my stir fry veges followed by fruit.
Have a good day everyone.

I'm in today. Feeling lunchtime hungry but I know it will pass. I want to save all my cals for a bbq tonight.
Have a great day everyone!

Heading off to bed on a Sunday night - I'll be joining the fast tomorrow morning with an egg and orange for breakfast - and chicken and veggies tomorrow evening. Same menu every fast day - it works for me. Good luck to all the Monday fasters!

My first failed fast - I got some sad news that a friend passed away and I can't really focus on fasting.

Life is too short right now.

So sorry to hear that @MelbMandy

Life is indeed too short, we have to cherish everyone around us.
