I looked everywhere to see if this was up already. Could I have started today's fast thread?
Well I'm on board, wish everyone well for today.

Hi Zamale,I'm in too!
Good luck to all Monday Marvels,lets have a Magical Monday ...
Happy fasting and repairing and being good to our bodies!

I'm there.
Got a renewed sense of purpose, seeing as I'm so close to goal. Done pretty well today, but fasting properly tomorrow.
Good luck #fellowfasters

Here as usual. Bit of a gloomy day here.

Yes it is gloomy today in Melbourne. I am in today too but somehow I am back paddelling in the last few weeks. I reached my goal weight but now up one and a half kilos. Yet I've never broken my fast days and not much drinks on other days.

Welcome to your first post Pariah! Sometimes a little weight gain is just water gain, maybe a previous meal was a little more salty, ToTM, lots of reason, don't get discouraged.

Yep, you beat us all to it!!!
I'm in, and a bit dank here today too.

Im here.

Hi everyone
I am new to posting on this site.
I am in Melbourne as well, definitely gloomy outside, after a couple of lovely days.
Am just having my first lemon and ginger 'tea' for the day.
Then back to the cleaning!!
Not sure if this will get posted to the site today, since I understand that first posts are checked before release.
Happy fasting

Hello everyone, thanks Zamale for opening the post.

I'm in today. Having my first coffee. It could be eggs for tea, then again it could be an Asian soup with buckwheat noodles and snow peas and coriander. Perhaps chicken in the soup. I like to have a plan in the morning. Today's jobs are : 1. to prepare resources for my classes this week. 2. To tidy the dining room table. 3. Possibly, depending on weather, prepare the bed for the tomatoes and plant seeds of pumpkin, cucumber and zucchini. Better get started/.

Hi everyone

I've just started 5:2 today and am 5 hours into my first fast.... (not counting or anything... haha)
Feeling ok so far but I know this afternoon is going to be when I struggle.

Good luck everyone else fasting today...

A couple of newbies today! Congrats on starting, I hope you finding the journey rewarding.
These forums are wonderful motivation to help you keep going thru the fasting days (as well as during other challenging times such as when cravings strike) so make the most of the vast experience of those who post.
Although I did my first post today, I have been on 5:2 since April, and am very pleased with the results so far. Wishing you the very best

I'll be in when it's Monday here. Good luck to everyone! I'm planning some Indian spiced lentils for lunch and a veggie burger for dinner. Probably a 16 calorie wasabi seaweed snack at some point, too.

I love your energy and positiveness, its infectious and makes this day doable

I'm back to my Monday fast today.

Sydney is surrounded by bushfires and the smoke seems to be getting thicker.
The city itself is not endangered but so many outer area fires are burning. Stay safe all our Blue Mountains friends!
There is a health warning out for asthmatics - sounds like a good day for indoor exercise.

I'll have veges and fruit for dinner.
It's my book club tonight and I'm planning to save 120 cals for a small glass of wine!
