The FastDay Forum

Good Morning from Brisbane, sunny and 27 degrees today:)
I'm fasting today...and I really need to...after Christmas night out on Saturday ...and family lunch on Sunday...and a few sweet treats in between;)

Hiiiii Jem,i' m in when morning comes
Still 2 weeks left to squeeeeeeeeze in some more repairs before Crimble
Good luck Jem and all Monday's Miracle Fasters! lets have a good day! X

I'm with you today Jem. Warm day forecast for Sydney too.

I've got that end of year, walking with glue on the bottom of my feet feeling.

Looking forward to wrapping up work for the year and getting some r&r.

Tucked into my first mango of the season yesterday - now that's the taste of summer, Christmas, and holidays to me. (bring on the mango daiquiris!)

What's the taste of Christmas to all you Monday fasters?

Have a great day everyone!

Hi Otter x i think marzipan is sooooo christmassy! But the taste of Christmas for me is probably a large glass of Baileys with a mince pie..as i dont drink or eat them any other time of year..also a choccy Santa or a white choccy snowman..and of course tangerines and nuts! X

Hi Jem I'm here too. Off for a follow up breast ultrasound today after my lumpy breast scare a month ago. I know I was given the all clear but being the paranoid person I'm a tad nervous about today.
Otter I bought a tray of mangoes for $12.99 last week, bet they aren't that cheap at Christmas.

Hi fellow Monday fasters,
I'm in.
I really need to fast as I've been stuck on a plateau for nearly 3 months.I've been doing 2 fasts a week but seem to be hovering around 80 kilos forever.
Today I've decided to forgo breakfast a only have liquids until evening when I'll have a prawn stir fry for tea.
It doesn't help being in the middle of a cooking frenzy as I make the family loads of mince pies ,shortbread and gingerbread.
I agree with you Candice Marie,Christmas is Baileys and mince pies but I'll try to wait until Christmas day before I sample them
Cheers

Nice lazy morning, hate getting up too early on a fast, sipping spicy orange tea.
Hope you have a great day fasters.
Have not given thought to dinner, maybe baked beans with peri peri sauce splashed in.

Hi everyone
I am in for my usual fast today, as a travel back from Adelaide to Melbourne.
Miserable here drizzling and cool. Doubt it will be much better at home...
Zamale - I envy you your lazy morning!
Wineoclock - understand your nerves, but sounds good for an all clear.
Carmel - hope the liquids get those kgs moving!!

Christmas is mince pies and shortbread, and my mum's Christmas dinner
Happy fasting!

Hi everyone. Went out to the Christmas tree farm yesterday so we'll be doing some decorating tonight! I'm in today after a horrible Sunday of unusual gluttony. I might be in tomorrow as well! Good luck everyone and stay strong!

So much talk about food this morning! I am in but as it's cold and drizzling here I don't think it will be an easy one. However, the scales were looking great for a Monday morning (particularly given I had beer and hotdogs at the cricket on the weekend) so am hopeful to reach my CC goal tomorrow morning. Good luck everyone!

In in the morning as usual.

I'm in. I also had a rather gluttonous Saturday night, where I managed to scarf down alot of food and surprisingly didn't get a tummy ache. I am more or less in maintenance now but I definitely need a fast today!

I'm in today, busy too so will help keep my mind off food....
Cheers to all fasters today.

Hey everyone!

I'm in after 4 days of being awful food-wise and 3/4lb heavier
Shouldn't have got so smug about being just off 10 and a half stone.

I hope I can do it today although I'm pretty hungry right now. I am just drinking lots of water and I have a sugar free energy drink and misos if I need them.

Not sure what to do for dinner.. any suggestions for someone who is a rubbish cook?!

baked bean with peri peri sauce added?
