Fasting today? Tuesday, 3 Jan
03 Jan 2017, 14:17
Well it's not a usual light day for me, but I finally have the boys out of the house, so I will go for it. My goal is my usual two espressos with 1/2 tbsp half and half cream, plus black tea for breakfast. I have a grapefruit set aside for lunch, as well as 1 point (ww point) of turkey breast slices to eat with some plain green salad for lunch. Dinner will be zero point veggie soup (nothing but starch free veggies and broth -- cabbage, onions, carrots, celery, leeks, zucchini, tomato, bell pepper, garlic) and a chicken breast.
Hi fellow fasters
I was hoping for a good full fast today but it will be a step towards doing a good one on Thursday now. A low day is ok instead to get me eased in gently. Less exercise, too much food and wine have put me into a zone I don't want to be in. Plus i have my Mediterranean summer holiday booked which is always a good incentive for me to shift some fat.
Good luck all :heart:
I've been in today - also not my usual day but yesterday seemed just too soon after the festivities. I did manage one day between christmas and NYE and hoping to get another in before I go away on Sunday for a week in Finland. It does seem harder than usual when you've had a break but I've had my dinner now so all is well. My Libra trend weight at the beginning of the year is 2lbs less than a year ago - some progress????
Any loss is an improvement :-)

Yes, I was hoping for a proper fast day, but at about 3:30, I snapped. I ate about 6 points for a very late lunch (berries, yogurt, greens, some deli turkey and a low carb/low calorie wrap). I am confident I can keep dinner points very low to end the day with <15 points/~750 calories. Despite not being a perfect fast day, it feels like I'm easing back into my pattern of light days on Mondays, Tuesdays and Thursdays.

The plan for tonight is zero-point veggie soup (all fresh non-starchy veggies: onions, celery, carrot, cabbage, leek, bell pepper, garlic with broth and seasonings), some grilled chicken and I may roast an acorn squash.

:-)
