I'm in, sniffs and all
Aubergine and chicken breast later.

Just did a run, that feels better.

Fasting too, and a day off from work - uh oh is it going to be harder?

Yesterday's fast went very well so I've decided to go for back2back and pop in today also. Sue

I'm in, but will see how if I feel if I go to the gym tonight - I haven't mastered fasting and exercising on the same day yet. However, Monday's fast went really well and I managed to swim before breakfast on Tuesday.

Good luck to all.

I haven't done this yet, good luck with it!

I'm in too. Seem to have shifted the uplift in weight from the weekend from my one fast of the week so far this week so hoping another one will help me alonge a bit more!

@Egduf Thank you!

I'm in. Already been to the gym this morning, now sipping on black coffee and looking forward to a lunch of lentil and barley soup with a slice of wholemeal bread.

This is my final fast before celebrating my birthday this weekend and next week - getting ready for a few days full of sweet things and boozy things; my next fast on Wednesday will be well needed!

I'm in going to try something a bit different and have split my calories over 2 meals today - having egg salad with a little salsa for lunch and then an egg and turkey salad for dinner. Hoping the protein will keep me from being hungry

For now I am drinking lots and lots of water to keep me going until lunch. Good luck everyone

HI Everyone
37o Celcius here to day. Didn 't want to fast. Had dentist after work so did.
At work at Lunch staff were talking about the Ruby soup which I had taken to work on a non fast day. Out of the blue a few staff commmented on how well I look after being on this way of life since October. They made my day and of course I am so GLAD I fasted as usual on Thursday

Also fasting today, just looked at the calender, today is fast #14.

I'm with you today. Running on black tea all day until some sort of veggie dinner tonight.
@RunningOlsen Good luck with fasting at home. Welcome to my life! I work from home and it was a real struggle at first. Over the weeks however, I've got used to ignoring the haunting cries of the fridge and have stayed on track. Try and fill up your day with as much activity as possible and time will fly!

Hi everyone. Better late than never. Kitchen's closed and I'm in bed ready to snooze after a successful fast day. Good luck to my fasting friends across the seas.
Happy Birthday for the weekend @jomou

@Mich37 I was at almost the same point you are now last year. I was down around 11 lbs after 7 weeks. We went to a camp with my husband's family. The food was prepared for us and plentiful (and good). I worried about it but ate till I was full but not overful. We even had pie daily (their specialty). We did fast the two travel days since it was a long day getting there and back, but after almost a week there we both lost 2 lbs! The fast on the return home was one we looked forward to after eating more than normal.

Enjoy your trip and don't let food dominate your time. Life happens!

Well, this is just a wave across the abyss. I usually fast on Thursday but this morning I had the muesli in the bowl before I remembered that it was Thursday. i put it back in the container and considered. I have to be out around dinner time and wouldn't be able to eat until 7.30 so I decided to fast tomorrow instead. I put the muesli back in the bowl and cut up a peach. Have a good day everyone. I'll be here tomorrow.

You must be busy @Sallyo, I've not seen you around. Good luck fasting tomorrow, I have a stressful day tomorrow so I'll fast Saturday.
I'm yet to weigh myself to see if this diet is working, but either way, i've learnt so much.
Good luck everyone
