The FastDay Forum

I'm in for a much needed low cal day. Good luck, Tuesday fasters!

Joining you @MaryAnn . We know it will do us good!

Good luck MA, I'm not sure if I should post here or in the confessional! I was going to fast but woke at 3am and by 5.30 I was scarfing down toast. I try to buy 'that special' loaf only rarely, because once I know it's in the house I have to eat it. I have OCDC eating! I really eat for the pleasure of my obsession. Shamed.

Hi Tuesday fasters
I am in with you, too, back-to-back (yesterday & today).

@GMH
is that what English native speakers call to raise a toast?

Happy fasting

I'm in today the first day of a back to back fast.
Since starting quite well at the beginning of January I have had a dreadful two weeks (in terms of eating) and am now even heavier than I was post New Year. I really really want to knuckle down and get my weight back under control. I have a diary where I log my weigh ins and I'm 20 lbs heavier than this time last year and not happy about it.
So that's why I'm fasting today, and planning liquid only till dinner of Hairy Dieters Fish pie and steamed veg.
Good luck everyone

Moien, everyone. Yes, I'm fasting today. Only managing one a week at the moment plus a lighting day, but the grams are dropping off gently, so shall pursue this WOL for now. It does depend on the ort of night that I have had. If I have been awake since 3a.m. I need significant sustenance by 9 .

Hi all, I'm in too today. Don't like fastday mornings at all - I always feel I may not get to the end of the day without giving in, but actually I get there (... I always have so far!) And I love the result! I know there's quite some way to go, but clothes are already feeling less tight post-Xmas and I feel more confident too for doing something about my weight.

Yea for the 5:2!

I'm in!
Usually do Monday, but wasn't in the right mood yesterday after having an extra glass of wine (and therefore lots of cheese and crackers) on Sunday night. Oh dear, weight highest since October - it is a good job that I did the Christmas challenge or I would be back to square one!
Have a good day everyone

Im in today, good luck everyone

I'm in today for the first fast of the week. Good luck all!

@CandiceMarie
ha ha Reminds me of eating a horse and chasing the rider afterwards... I am sooooo hungry, ARGH. Back to back fasts are a real challenge the second day from 12 or 1 p.m. on... but the vision of all the stuff I will eat tomorrow morning is as full-scale

Let's keep going

I'm in today too. Got some squash and sweet potatoes roasting in the oven for a soup later. There's a bit of garlic and chilli oil drizzled over the top and it smells amazing. I find my senses of taste and smell are really heightened on a fast day!

Still been fasting twice a week instead of the three planned but trying to rip out kitchen and replace it whilst working full time too so had a few unhealthy takeaways. Cant be helped eh
Also got my knee op in a few weeks so will be bored at home, I think i will have to put a padlock on the fridge and give my other half the key lol

I'm in today as well. Turns out that I have a lunch date with a friend who needs someone to talk to. She's sympathetic to fasting so I'll get a bowl of chicken soup, and just not eat the solid bits.

I would have fasted yesterday, but we had a snowstorm (18") and all three of us were housebound. Hubby hates to have a fasting day when we're home, he can only fast if he's working and away from the kitchen. I don't know if he realizes that I'm home for each and every fasting day I've ever done!
