The FastDay Forum

I'm in. Not even 10am and I'm starving already!! Want to try and hold off eating until lunch as I know eating now is just going to make me hungrier! Not usually this hungry on fast days but had a couple of weeks off fasting and I think it's sent my appetite a bit funny again!

I'm in today.

This is the first fast day I've missed breakfast - just water so far. I don't feel hungry at all, but my stomach is rumbling really loudly and my colleagues are noticing. Any tips to stop a rumbling tummy?

Normally I would of eaten my breakfast by now (recently i've been having 100g of raspberries and trying to make them last about an hour!) but am trying to last a bit longer before I eat as I feel that i'm getting hungrier as soon as I eat something. However, I am very, very hungry so i'm not sure how long i'll last before I snaffle the lot.

Dimmit - this happened to me on Monday - a cup of Miso soup did the trick!!

I'm in today also. It's second of three this week. Had a cup of tea and a packet skinny late so far. It's a 66cal ainsley Harriet cup soup and a 57 cal weight watchers yoghurt at lunch. Then I might make a casserole for dinner. Exercise class later too.

I am and I'm hungry for both food and coffee!
Got to do some blood work today and an x-ray and my appointment id for 2PM. I'm leaving soon and I will pack a nice coffee and a sandwich for when I'm done.

Good Morning, count me in for my 2nd fast this week.

Hi everyone

We are in too (Les and me). He's away since 6am this morning and I was too busy at work to sign in before.

It's our second and last fast for this week.

Hope to have a late lunch as usual and then a nice but small dinner later.

It's a lovely day outside. Oh well back to work.

Good luck everyone

Morning (just) All,

I'm fasting today too, fourth fast day, and it feels sooooo much easier that the previous three! have had a cup of tea and am feeling fine, no hunger pangs .....YET....I might try and hold out until dinner.

Keep up the good work everyone, tomorrow we can eat lol.

Yes I'm fasting today I did yesterday and went over my calories (as i thought i would) and eating out tomorrow so this will be my 3rd this week let's see on Friday if the plateaus still with me Sue

Well, I think this might be a 4:3 week to shift the extra holiday pounds, although there are only 3 more of them today than there were on the day before we flew.

I only woke up at 11, hopefully a sign that the jet lag is ending, and still not hungry so miso soup for lunch, veggies for tea.

I am going to tackle the mountain of ironing resulting from the holiday. Happy to be wearing shorts I wasn't confident enough to take away with me. I love 5:2 fasting

I'm really struggling this afternoon, feeling very hungry and wish I knew what I could eat to take the edge off.

I have a plum but that's really for later on this afternoon!

I don't think it helps that i'm bored at work and therefore have the time to think about my hunger - i'm working my notice and I feel my mind has left the building before my body is allowed to!

Not long to go! I'm on my second fast of the week. I'm thinking of doing a semi fast on friday as well to make up for some over indulgence on my feed days. In other words fast until the evening but not stick to 500 calories for my evening meal.
Has anyone else tried that?

I'm in today too even after having an early 5am start with my baby 2nd fast of the week and hoping to loose after stalling last week
Good luck Peeps

I'm still here.

Today is dragging on even though I am busy at work. Will have my banana soon.

Done this during my holidays when were renovating the kitchen and had to have loads of take outs. Worked for me as I didn't put on during that time. then done my usual 2 days the week following the holidays and when I went on the scales I had weight off.
