Hi guys. I'm in. Had a really smooth fast day. Have not eaten anything and its 7 pm. Spoiling myself with 4 oysters, 100 grams of prawns and half a tuna sushi roll. Soooo excited! Only had 4 hours sleep last night so it will be easy to have an early night. We've been having 1 & 1/2 spicy chicken or tuna sushi rolls with a ready made salad with 132 cals for 2 people for fast nights a couple of times and its been yummy and I love it as I'm not cooking while fasting. @Wineoclock do you like sushi and a bit of chilli. If you go to the new sushi place at Lennox centre at Emu Plains and ask them nicely they will make them for you, ( they're not on the menu) if you do , make sure you say ' lots of chilli sauce please" because its not really that hot. Theyre called spicy chicken sushi roll ( or tuna) you will have to order 3 or more I think. Make sure you point to the black sushi rolls as once they didn't understand me a made me rice paper rolls. A bit of local knowledge for you.
Cheers,
Julianna

2nd week of 5:2, watched the horizon programme yesterday & feeling inspired! Fasting today, planning on eating late afternoon/ early evening

Morning/evening everyone! Not normally a Thursday faster but on a day off so thought would do today instead of Friday.
So far so good......school run done, a couple of errands to run and housework!
On holiday after tomorrow so looking forward to a week away from the normal routine
Have a great day. X

Oh it was so nice to have dinner tonight! I only lasted four fasts last year... But this time it is so much easier and I think that not eating all day and having one large satisfying meal is for me mentally better than having two little pitiful meals etc So glad that I can stay focus this time

Hi @julianna thank for the info. I love chilli and can do sushi that doesn't involve any fish

I'm in! Having coffee for lunch and ignoring my rumbling tummy. Looking forward to ratatouille this evening. DBH will be having sausages and bread too, so I might have to have a taste of that too
Hope everyone's having a good day

Oi! Everyone is done or finishing up, but I'm just starting my Thursday fast. Hope it's a good one for all of us.

8:30am here and I'm in for the day. I have some stressful stuff going on at work today so here's hoping the day goes well.

Hi everyone!

I think I lost a pound overnight just blowing my nose. What an awful cold! At least I'm not hungry, and if I were, I couldn't taste a thing!

Why are Thursday fasts so much harder than the Monday fasts? Really have an attack of the nibbles today.
But, hols on Saturday, hurray hurray.
Onion soup for supper.

Why are Thursday fasts so much harder than the Monday fasts?

I don't know, but I always find the second fast of the week so much harder. I'm finding it harder than normal anyway at the moment. Hopefully will be able to keep within 500 today, especially as the non fast days are not going so well.

Don't worry about the non fast days... With you in spirit, tho.

Hi @peebles - I hope you feel better soon. I went back to work today ........ blimey I did not realise how exhausted I would feel, so take it easy and rest up .... my appetite has not returned yet but hoping I'll feel up for a spectacular re-feed of my favourite food this weekend as feeling weak is not a good place to be Good fasting to all out west!

Nearly at the end of 2nd fast day, felt a bit harder than Monday as I just couldn't get warm - have heating full on! I'm going to weigh tomorrow and from then on every Friday .

I hope everyone had a good day.
