The FastDay Forum

Hello all. You have not heard from me for a while because our online system has been very on and off. Also I forgot how to start a new topic, I still fast regularly on Tuesdays and Fridays. Often there isn't a topic for those days.
My weight keeps steady. Is this because I am getting older. My weight maintenance seems to include twice fasting each week!! I would like to lose some. Naturally I am glad that I am not gaining, at least. I always lose some when I fast but manage to put it back on again before the next fast. And I am skipping lunches every day anyway. Sigh.
Good luck to others fasting today

Thanks for starting the topic. I am too tired to figure how this morning. I've had only one cup of coffee so far.
Yes, I am in today. Usually I fast Mon. and Fri., but yesterday I was not well, needed my gingerale. Not good to fast, I've learned, when my body or emotions are off. I haven't planned my snacks today, but have plenty on hand. frozen blueberries, nuts, egg, salad ingredients. I too gain back, but it's the icecream that calls to me in between fasts. Good luck to you, and other fasters today.

Hi MargotSylvia,my favourite name!
I' m joining you and grannieannie and feel sure others are,even if they haven't signed in here! X

I'm in today. I would usually fast on a Monday but yesterday I went on a coach trip to London for a guided tour of the Houses of Parliament and a meeting with our local MP. I ate all sorts of high calorie food throughout the day and so thought that I would throw in a fast today to try and stay at, or around, my target weight.
I was playing with our accordion group at a senior citizens meeting this afternoon and they were having a birthday party for the Queen. There was a very nice buffet, from which our accordion group were invited to help ourselves, but I stayed strong and ate nothing! Unheard of for me!
Early dinner tonight because I have a committee meeting this evening, so just time to go and tie my runner beans to their canes before the slugs eat all of the growing tips.
Good luck for the rest of the day everyone!

Hi there! I'm in too, just bean too preoccupied -mainly thinking about food!!

Anyway, trying to hold out as long as I can, until 7 ish maybe. I've got minute steak with lots of veg, all,of which are green I notice so there could be calamitous consequences!!

How's everyone doing?

Bean xx

Hope your day went well Terrific Tuesday Fasters!
Mine went ok,bit over ..must admit will be glad when its tomorrow! X

Thanks Candy @Candicemarie I'm pretty pleased with my fast today. Managed to wait until 8 this evening and have munched my way through 482 cals. The kitchen is now closed and this bean is off to bed!
Hope today was a good one fellow Fasters!
