The FastDay Forum

I'm in although i feel quite hungry which is unusual for me in the morning.
I will top up the coffee and drink plenty of water and try to last until 2pm before i eat. Good luck folks.

I'm in too today - good luck everyone

I'm in but not really 'feeling' it today. Already contemplating jacking it in and it's only 9.30am!

must try and be good as i'm having a week off fasting next week whilst we are on holiday so should really try and stick with it today.

Maybe diet coke and tea will do the trick????

Good luck everyone!

I am in today too, didn't get to check in until now. I was with my granddaughter and she keeps me too busy to think about food....
Just had my one meal this evening, salmon and vegetables. Oh that was good.

Having an early night so I don't keep eating.

Happy fasting everyone.

I'm in! Just had a black coffee and a tablespoon low fat Greek yoghurt with some blueberries and cinnamon - mmmm!

Then banana for lunch and half a tin of soup with a ton of veg for dinner. I find some hot water and lemon is good for fast days, it takes away the bloated feeling and for some reason is pretty filling.

At the tail end of my fast day. It's been successful and I'm keen to see what shows on the scales and tape measure in the morning. All the best fasters!

I'm in too.

Oh @ChinChin, what a difference it makes where in the world you are... you're at the tail end of your fast day? It's not even 6am here yet! LOL

I'm kinda amazed at how much food I was able to gather for today and still be under 500 calories. I get strawberris and blueberries with my black tea for breakfast... a big salad for lunch (and miso soup too!) then I still have some raw veggies for a snack.

Today will be my second fast of the week, and my second ever fast. Monday went well, lets see how today goes. Wish me luck!

I am in.

I'm combining 5:2 with paleo (but not cutting out dairy, because, just no).

I feel like I have lost something this week, so I am pleased! Good luck everyone

hey guys I am fasting today. Feeling absolutely starving! Lucky I have my app which sends me messages of encouragement throughout the day. If it was left to my husband I´d have stuffed my face by now! XX

Caboodlez, I am starving, too. Felt really lightheaded earlier.

I just caved and had 2 dates and 30g banana as it was closest to hand.

That and a cup of coffee with milk, and I am already 100cals down. Damn it.

Im starving today too, I been drinking loads of water which normally helps. I cant drink anymore or I will have to stay in the toilet for the rest of the day

I'm in today.
@Caboodlez, I have a similar app & some days it's the only thing that gets me through. I change "coaches" once a month or so to keep things interesting. Good luck to all fasters today. Tomorrow will be here before you know it & you can have anything you want then -in moderation of course

I'm in today and desperately in need of a good fast! I spent the weekend in Madrid and overate hugely! My (Spanish) son-in-law made us a wonderful paella with chicken, pork and cuttlefish. It was delicious but so filling - and that still didn't stop me having 'seconds'! We also brought home quite a number of cakes from my daughter's Bakery and those 'had' to be be eaten - otherwise they would have been wasted!

Good luck to all fasting today! Onwards and downwards!

That's me done.. But i'm a total cheater! I bought a ready meal which I NEVER do but I just needed the effort of working out cals taken away from me, I needed it to be easy today!!

@chichi13, buying a prepared meal isn't cheating. If it falls within your calorie range & helps you get through your fasting day its a good tool. Don't be so hard on yourself, you made it through another fast, great job!
