The FastDay Forum

Sunday dinner is eaten, Mondays fast begun. That's 24 hour of no food.
May The Fast Be With You :0)

Hi AB thanks for getting the ball rolling
Yes i' m in too
Considering doing my first back to back but I' ll decide that on Tuesday
Lets get Monday on the road first! X

I'm in, love my Monday fasts, see you in the morning, night night xx

Ballerina x

I'm in!

Good luck to all Monday fasters!

(I could do with a fast today, but not sure I will manage it. )

I, too, am in the Sunday part of my regular Monday 4:3 fast

Should be a decent day on Monday - couple of physio sessions to bookend work takes up the bulk of the day quite nicely.

to those who participate in the Monday fast.

Good morning everyone! I'm in, I really need a fast today. I feel like I was out of sorts and a little bit out of control with my eating this weekend.

Extra happy and productive fasting for all fasters today!

Hi everybody

Yes I'm in - lots planned - water aerobics, trimming the roses, baking for OH.

Black coffee, tea and vanilla & mint tea for my drinks today. Roast beef and some steamed Vegies for the evening meal tonight fitting in with Paleo and FODMAP allowed foods.

Have a great day.
Cheers
Maggie.

I'm in.
I've been away ten days, so although I did a B2B before I left and ate super carefully while I was away, walked more than 10k a day, I'm still heavier than when I started.
I'm a very long term dieter, and I thought 5:2 was going to be my answer but, it's not appearing so.
How long do you guys do 5:2 before you see results, I'm into week 4

Thanks for starting @Azureblue. Im here, at work as is usual for a Monday. Ive eaten out a lot in the last week so feeling like a fast is very needed.
Dont despair yet @Jaq, maybe as a long term dieter your body might just need to get back on track. Have a read around at some of the topics on not losing, lots of advice.

@JAC Hi,its worth being patient for the first few weeks..your bodys making a lot of adjustments..
It took me five weeks to lose anything at all..then i lost two stone in the last 3 months of 2013..
Put it all back on in 2014... Coz i ate too much obviously!
Have lost astone and a half in the first ten weeks of 2015 doing 5:2
Having said all that,i dont really care what the scales say..if my clothes feel looser and i feel lighter,happier,better - thats good enough for me x scales can be very contrary x

I'm in. This morning the scales reflected (unfortunately) the amount of food I had consumed over the weekend.

I'll be here too in the morning, though have of course started the fast. Just had a lovely dinner. Because I'm doing 4:3 this week again, it'll be Mon, Wed, Fri. This seems nearly like ADF. School holidays for the next 3 weeks, so it's convenient.
Have a good one everyone.

I'm in. Midday here. Good luck all

I'm in and looking forward to it after an (over) indulgent weekend. Just tea, water, black coffee for me until fish and a pea, fetta, parsley, lemon and tomato salad this evening. Going to do Wednesday this week instead of my normal Thursday as I am toying with the idea of doing 4:3 for a couple of weeks to get things moving. Monday, Wednesday, Friday seems like the best days for me.
Have a great Monday everyone.
