The FastDay Forum

Couldn't see a post for today so hope I haven't duplicated.
I am fasting today, second this week. Hope I am not alone!

I'm in as well - 2nd of back to back this week. The loss seems to have slowed down (and I think I've been a bit lax and so far this week I have gained) so from next week I'm going to try 4 3 and see how it goes as I still have some to lose.

There must be more than 2 of us today!

I am gonna give it a go today. I am hoping that making a last minute decision will take the pressure out of it.

I'm in today. I'm stuck in a chapel showing my wares as part of Dorset Art Weeks and it doesn't have any facilities!! Well it certainly makes me think about intake and I did well on Monday so hopefully today will go well too. It's also nice having people coming in to chat to and be a distraction. The internet is also rather vague so good luck with today Fasters.

I'm with you all today! Good luck fellow fastens

I'm fasting today too as I'm afraid I fell off the wagon last night It was my boyfriend's birthday and I felt guilty that I wouldn't be eating with him or taking him out so I caved! At least I was still underneath my TDEE I suppose, but my routine has been well and truly scuppered this week! Hoping to get back to it properly next week. Good luck fellow fasters xxxx

Hi one and all
I'm also in today. Did one Monday, so this should be second for the week. Made the mistake of weighing myself this morning, I dont know what I expected one fast and one good non fast day to have achieved exactly. Weight was 10.4. this is just my way of keeping a record. What it did do was motivate me for today that in really do need to do this.
Good luck today casters

Hey everyone, I'm in today too

I'm home revising for an upcoming exam, the sprogs (4 and 7) are home on half term and the kitchen is about 4 metres away from me. Today might be a struggle :/

Count me in for my usual Wednesday, I had a good repair day on Monday so I am hoping for the same today. On a Monday I only ever eat protein but on a Wed I have a very very long standing arrangement with a friend about 6years that we meet every week in a local Cafe and share a Scone and a pot of tea so I have to count that in my fast day calories. Which usually means a salad for dinner. It seems to work as long as I don't let the hunger monster bite. I have convinced myself that if I fail on a Wed then I will have to give up my 1/2 scone the threat seems to work because I always manage to keep below 400 calories. Sorry I went off on a tangent there. I hope you all have a very easy and successful repair day.@Damsen you can do it , you CAN do it it is only one day. Tomorrow you dine.

sorry@Damson Read end or above post.

I am in for day 2 of a back to back this week. with it been half term, my niece up for the week and my eldest 21st this week I have found it hard to fit 2 days in apart from doing a back to back. I did go over my 500 cals yesterday as we were at a race night and there was supper in with the price. I only ate at the race night but not the most ideal food for a fast but i got through the night (did pinch a few sweets and crisps off the girls! opps) Hoping for a goodish one today having although making us all one meal tonight however I wont be having the mash or roasties just the sausage and a big plate of veg.

Oh yes, I'm here and it's 3.15pm and I'm so hungry I could die Haven't had anything but water and that glass of iced coffee (47kcal) and dinner is hours away = poor poor me. Will have tiger prawns with curry and coconut from the first HD book, ack I can taste it just thinking about it...gahhhhh.

FAILED!!!:(

Hi Everyone!

Having a nice hot cup of tea for my lunch then probably a whole bunch of chicken and (low sugar) baked beans later - if i'm feeling flash maybe some broccoli.

Haven't been keeping up the 2 part of the 5:2 - but since I started in March I have always fasted at least one day a week. I'm finding out that my social life was busier than I thought and so much of it involves eating out. I guess the next step is figuring out healthy restaurant options and not caving and having dessert.

HANG IN THERE EVERYONE!

Sorry to hear that Debsie but don't beat yourself up. Try again another day. Don't look at it as failure it is just a minor deviation. You will get back into your stride another day.
