The FastDay Forum

So glad it's not just me! Keep going to get up from the computer and do something and just end up opening another web page instead! Cup of tea sounds like a great idea. Maybe I'll be tempted to clean the kitchen up a bit while the kettle is boiling...

@julianna yes the house is ready for the party. It's not completely finished but good enough. So it's fire up the wood fired oven and party on

I'm half in. I'll do my usual fast day soft-boiled egg for brekkie, miso soup for afternoon snack, but dinner will exceed 400 calls. A few of us are having an unorthodox Thanksgiving at a teppanyaki place. Best steak and seafood in Okinawa. I probably shouldn't say more than that in this thread...

uh oh. half-fast fail. there was fudge at teatime today. The pieces were tiny, but I had 3. !! I finally just left. I could see I had no will-power.

I was planning a half-fast tomorrow. It might go better since I'll be on a plane with no access to food.

Well I made it...3 fasts this week after none for 3/4 weeks. 1x500 and 2x600 cals. Good fasting everyone.

Yes I`m going to stick with it today. I`m suffering a significant relapse of Me syptoms so am Just going stay at home and let BS take some of the strain. Experience at Hedge End M+S was totally unaccepable, so cannot drive anywhere at moment, so taking taxis everywhwere. Will bill M+S once I am confident to drive again. May need help of solicitor to do this, but one has already contacted me. Have asked BS to take bras they `gave`, me in compensation for my trouble and offered to pay for taxi to and back from hedge-end.

I'm in! This will be my 2 weeks anniversary of 5:2, and i'm really glad about it.

Hello All I'm in too, but am 'under the weather' with a flu type bug.
Not sure how the day will pan out as I don't have much appetite presently.
Happy Thanksgiving Day to all our friends in America!
Have a good fast!

I'm in today too, just one fast this week as I'm sort of on Maintenance. I have a hair appointment over lunchtime, then Quorn Bolognese and Slim Pasta for dinner.

Good luck

And Happy Thanksgiving

I am fasting today, very seriously fasting today! The scales didn't like me this morning......

I'm in. Battling a cold and it's freezing here but determined as I want to record a new number on weigh day tomorrow. I saw a number that started with 12 earlier in the week bu it didn't count as it wasn't my official weigh in day!

Day nearly done. I hope dinner was within the limits: 2 boiled eggs, lettuce, tomatoes, beetroot, half a slice of bacon, mayonnaise dressing, one slice of sour dough bread -no butter and a bowl of strawberries with a little cream. Oh, 2 squares of dark chocolate. What do you reckon? I only had a cup of miso soup during the rest of the day.

I wish I was so disciplined. Last week I kept adding to my progress tracker as the scales went lower and lower. This week went the other way for a while but I didn't add new weigh in data. Too demoralising. Tomorrow is official weigh in day and I will be filling in whatever the scales show. Fingers crossed...

I'm in too (as usual on Thursday) although I was on the verge of saying Chuck It! cause I'm hungry. And cold. And …..like grrrrumpy Took a couple of spoonfuls of marinated mixed beans that was a left over. The one leftover the 14yur old don't devour LOL. The rest I save for dinner - a pie with ground meat, whole preserved champion, sour cream and grated chess. I promise, I will only take a small piece. Weigh in tomorrow will be interesting.

What's grated chess? And preserved champion?

I'm in today, but finding it difficult. I thought hunger pangs come and go, when mine are constant at the moment, and it's not mid-day here yet. Don't tell me to drink, I'm drinking for England! It's not helping. Decided to have porridge and stewed apple at lunchtime, but will probably have an early lunch at this rate. Noon is ok, yeah?
