Happy anniversary Janeg! Obviously where you are alcohol isn't a problem?
Role on bedtime!

4 hour until dinner. Craving carbs so might have a very childish meal of mac and cheese out of a packet! :s

I'm in today - going to be a strange one though because I am out of routine ( striking teacher). But I will get through I am sure.
Good luck everyone else

Mandy is it happening in every school?

Thought I would join the Thursday group today! Thunderstorms here in Crete so I have a nice vegetable casserole for later in the day.

Morning all

Lots of fasters here this Thursday! I am in but feeling a bit grumpy as had a squabble with my hubby and I would normally console myself with food. It is good that this WOL has allowed me to step back and see how much I do eat for comfort!

Anyway lots to do today so hopefully it will pass fast and everyone will be talking again in time for steamed fish and leeks in cheese sauce tonight! x

Hi again all, fires surrounding my little suburb. My boys are safe but waiting for buses to evacuate as roads are blocked and parents can't get through. I know they'll be fine. When I looked out my backyard it's clear as a help. When I look out the front it looks like the fire is only 1 or 2 streets away, Hubble putting sprinklers on the -roof now. I hope your ok wineoclock, keep safe. This is my 3rd big bushfire in 25 years but this time . Can't get rid of this queasy feeling.

I'm in hope you're all safe in the Blue Mountains.

Lots of challenges to fasting today. Please keep safe and well all.
Just starting my day here in France. A bad night as there was a fox nearby, a moonlit night and my dogs went mad. Had to get up and let the big boy do a tour round. All chickens present and correct this morning.
All animals fed and I am enjoying my black coffee. Same as others today am already hungry but am focusing on tomorrow. Just working out if I can make a shepherds pie within 500 cals! Must be the colder weather. Am determined to maintain my routine of fasting.

Hope you NSWers are all ok; difficult to conceive when it is only 8 degrees here. Good luck, we re thinking of you.

Fasting not going well, just had a small tin of salmon to try and sate me as I am grumpy and hungry (and a number of other dwarves!)

Someone is awake and buying 5:2 cookbooks in New Zealand!

Hello everyone, I'm in today. Good news about boobs wineo, I've just had a mammogram also and it proved I've got two cysts.
Phew!! It's encouraging to know that someone else is not eating today, it really keeps me going. My danger zone is about 4.00pm so I shall keep busy to take my mind off 'food'!
I cooked a superb low cal chicken breasts recipe in my slow cooker yesterday, so if I do feel the urge to eat then I will fall back on the chicken. On my fast days I usually just have liquids. We shall see
Best of luck
P.S. I'm due to go to my hairdressers soon and I'm hoping she might say 'haven't you lost weight', we can dream

I am here for an unplanned fast today. We had some delicious home made waffles last night, with a 40 years old waffle maker and they were soooo good. Even if they were a light version, I decided to fast today. No regrets at all they were worth a little effort the next day

@julianna did your kids get home ok? We're they at St Columbas then? How stressful for you not to have them home when his is all happening. We are on the other side of the highway so weren't worried about our place.
Thanks for all the boob congratulations. I do love it how my name is being reduced to wineo, it's rather apt

Almost the end of Thursday here. Has been a good day over all. Slight headache for a while but that's passed. Sometimes towards the end of the days when I'm fasting I can get a little manic and that happened today. Nothing worrying just get a little giggly and slightly unhinged. People who know me well would probably just say that was normal for me lol.
