The FastDay Forum

One of my usual 4:3 so I'm fasting. I've an appointment with a physiotherapist at lunch time and I'm hopeful for some guidance as to how to cope with my uptick in joint problems before the surgery as well as some advice and options for rehab. afterwards.

to other Wednesday fasters...

In for a fast day today too. Really struggling to not gain, Equinox challenge is a bust. I would now need to lose over 10 pounds in less than 3 weeks...not going to happen. I find it hard to stick to the rules when supper-time rolls around and usually eat more than 500Cal. Drinking black coffee at present and feeling OK. What's that Chinese (I think ) definition of success - fall down a 1000 times; get up 1001.
Good luck all fellow fasters

Im here. Going for a two meals a day strategy to get me through.

Only 3 of you in today?! What's going on?
Let me know how your two meal a day strategy goes Oatesy!
I'm currently enjoying my day off with a full tum after a delicious lunch. Oops sorry I shouldn't have said that
Hope your fasting today is a complete success. Not long to go now...really

Checking in for my 2nd fast day of the week!!! Go Wednesday!

I'm in today for the first fast of the week (I was away for the last two days for work and I'm damned if I'm going to fast whilst getting food expenses...), does mean this might be the only fast of the week as I don't do Fri-Sun and I'm not sure about consecutive days! Might mix it up a bit and do low carb or a couple of eating windows later in the week

I'm in also, had my steak and salad and still hungry

My day has been OK appetite wise - yoghurt for breakfast; no lunch because I visited the physiotherapist; dinner was vegetable stew with a slice of gammon followed by a satsuma.

Looking forward to tomorrow.

Good Luck to those of you who are peckish and need to accommodate that for the remainder of your fast.

Argh! Watching bake off on a fast day is not a good idea! Mmm shortbread....

I ended up fasting on Wednesday, though that wasn't the plan. I was very busy in the morning so postponed breakfast - and then found I didn't actually feel hungry. Had a 2 1/2 hour drive and planned to eat when I got home - but again, was busy and able to leave eating until dinner time. I did allow myself to have a few more cals though with dinner.
This will be a help for today when I am having dinner at THAT cake shop (Brunetti's).
Hope those who intended to fast did/ are doing okay.

I am or was in for a fast today. Watched my friend's 2 year old and looking after a badly injured cat from the local shelter, so it's been a busy day for me. I'm hungry but don't really want to eat, so stuck to a bit of apple and some miso soup for the day. I guess good luck to the Thursday fasters in the other thread?
