The FastDay Forum

am in today after a failed fast yesterday, trying to decide whether to do 2 days in a row, and otherwise I will only manage one day this week (fasting on fridays and weekends doesn't work well for me!)

Oh I'm starvin and I've had my dinner. Can ye hear the lard dripping off my thighs and my ass shrinking! Actually, I've been much hungrier than usual today. It feels like that time I did two consecutive fast days.

Hay, whats a @Banthafish? Just curious!

I've been fasting today, first of the week because of having too much food in the house to eat up on Monday and Tuesday. I have been hitting the cakes and chocolate rather hard the last couple of weeks, so I have decided that I need to buckle down and get back to my target weight before my molehill turns into a mountain!

Now I just need to decide whether tomorrow or Friday will be my second fast of the week. I'm guessing Friday would be best! Only because it's further away!

@scubachick sorry to say its just a daft name I made up! Banthas are things from star wars, and fish, not sure where that came from - though perhaps I was hungry at the time?

Hahahaha, @Banthafish! I thought some new creature had been discovered. Now if you were Babelfish I would have recognised it as a sci fi reference!

I have found your avatar!

It's Thursday 1st May in Melbourne, 3:30pm and I'm preparing dinner early. On Monday's fast I left food preparation till way after 4:00pm and I was so hungry I struggled to keep to the fast. I want to fast, I need to fast...so I need to plan and be disciplined where possible (least disciplined person in the southern hemisphere). Happy fasting to all Thursday 1st May fasters.
