The FastDay Forum

Here I am, on the train, half asleep and fasting. Disorganized as seems to be my problem with food lately, so just had a coffee with milk, brought a flask of black coffee with me and a protein bar to have sometime this morning. Then I'll have dinner, probably a 600-700 cal day for maintenance. Good luck fasters.

Joining you GMH and all the other plucky thursday fasters! Good luck to all of us
with our fast and repairs x

Yes I will be fasting tomorrow also. Looking forward to it for my body repair!! I fasted on Monday, it went well and also been doing 16/8

Got to tell you about this, I live in Devon and it's really big on recycling. Anyway we have a green and black bin and two smaller boxes for recycling tins/plastics/paper etc. Well on Monday night I went to put out the smaller green box, to my horror I felt my yoga pants starting to slip down. I had my hands full with carrying the box so I couldn't pull them back up. I was just grateful that it was dark because seeing the sight of my rear end would of frightened even the hardened person !!

Me thinks it might be time to get another pair of yoga pants.

JJ309 what a wonderful thing to have your pants fall down!!
I'm in today, nothing until dinner then maybe a stir fry not sure yet.

JJ309 - that has me laughing in my way to work!

I'm in for my second fast of the week.

I really love the feeling on the morning after the fast - open my eyes and think 'I did it!' ... just the thought of feeling like that tomorrow morning will help pull me through today.

Miso for lunch, hamburgers for dinner (kids get buns, but not me)

Good luck today fellow fastens. Aussies - we need to drink lots of water today, if the forecast is right it's going to be a hot one!

It's already very windy up here Otter, bushfire weather for sure.

@JJ309, that gave me a good giggle! Good news that your yoga pants are that loose though.

Good morning fasting friends.
I'm in for my 2nd fast for the week, so glad to feel back on track.
Still giggling about the pantsdown JJ309
Thanks for such a happy start to our fast day.
Yes its predicted to be 39deg in Sydney today
- that's about 100deg in Farenheit for the non- metric
LOTS of water today.
I'll enjoy my swim this morning, then visit Mum and help keep her cool.
Dinner will be stir fry veges and goat cheese, followed by watermelon and strawberries- may skip the hot chocolate tonight!
Have a good day everyone.

I'm in, going to for a liquid fast today, although this sin't helped by DH next to me eating my homemade bread and boiled eggs!!
Nasty weather in NSW, stay safe, and if in doubt, run in the opposite direction asap is my philosophy for bush fires.

Morning everyone!
I'm also in and do not mind at all, as yes it is going to be such a hot one today I think it was 20 degrees at 7AM this morning.
Lots of herbal tea, water and sugar free lemonade for me. I overdid it a bit last night but on the plus side, I said no to the bread basket and cake for dessert and I also turned down another gin and tonic and opted for a coffee!
Have a great day everyone.. Aussies make sure you stay hydrated.

Phew keep cool all you Aussies!
Plenty of cold water with slices of lemon and lime and lots of ice!

Fasting day for me! I really went overboard yesterday..It was coincidentally my first day in the gym - I think I felt more entitled to eat so that needs to be fixed. I'm hoping to make up for losses today with a good solid fast.
To everyone back home in Aus, take care! Someone mentioned bush fires and now I'm all worried. Maybe this weekend is a good one to fire proof your properties!?

I'm in for a fast on Thursday, it's not yet here... but I'll be with all you fine folks! Just doing the simple 5:2 this week, but hoping to be back to my regular next week! Happy fasting everyone

Ohh me wants food :/ the air con is cranked right up so it's really cold in the office and I'm not feeling any of this lovely heat outside. Boo!!

I'm here as usual on a Thursday. No heat here though - cool and drizzly, perfect for indoor pursuits. Stay cool Sydneysiders!
