The FastDay Forum

OK I'm committed for today, 500 cal fast, haven't fasted for a week and been eating too much. Wet fish time. Good luck those joining me.

Good morning @GMH, I'm in for my second fast this week. The first was a bit wobbly, so going to take a stronger stand against sneaky calories and vague intentions.
Happy and purposeful fasting everyone.

I'm in. Feeling strong now but it is only 8.30am.

I need a kick up the wotsit as well. I am going in the wrong direction again. Will fast today. Gnocchi later for dinner.

Not for me today as I'm DODOing. Thursday usually is a fast day for me.
So, Im sending positive vibes, good intentions AND I've got the wet fish on standby for those who want/need a slap.

I'm in today! Feels a bit more like I'm back on the proper wagon again this week... best of luck to everyone... keep hydrated! xox

I'm in today. It's a lonely one for me as my OH has reached his weight goal and I haven't reached mine so we both fasted Monday but I'm doing today by myself
Stay strong everyone

Thanks GMH. I'm in today. @nursebean Oops, I forgot to do my Wednesday 52 version of DODOh! So used to my Monday / Thursday routine ... nevermind. Good luck everyone

<・)))><< Was very conscious of the possibility of a wet fish slapping today. Hope all goes well for Northern hemisphere 5:2ers.

I am fasting today. I wish I could eat, but it is only 12:30. Sigh.
I fasted on Tuesday as well, but there was no 'fasting today' thread for that day. It was upsetting. I still do not know how to start a Forum topic. I would have, if I knew how. I do not do Internet social media, so am not very agile in stuff like this.
After my Tuesday fast I was back to 52 kg. And I did not put on any weight as yet so even this morning I was 52.kg. Wonder if I lose any today? My goal is 51.7 kg, and would like to get that a bit more established, before going on back to maintenance. Next week I'll have a visitor for 10 days, so will not probably fast so much then.
Good luck to all other Thursday fasters.

Im fasting today too. Had an approx 100cal salad just now, so need some inspiration for an easy 400 later.
My mind is blank!!

We are in as well. I'm making a veg curry tonight, so I'm looking forward to that.

There are not many of us today, so we'll have to make an extra big effort to show that we can do it!
I was tempted to give in at 1.30 pm when my husband cut himself three huge slices from a freshly made wholemeal loaf and then covered it with a copious amount of butter!
I managed to talk myself out of it and now, an hour later, I am not feeling hungry at all! I think that part of my problem is that I am back to my target weight, having lost my 'holiday' weight from last week, so my mind was suggesting that I didn't really 'need' to fast. However, I know that I need to consolidate at this weight before returning to a more normal, maintenance way of eating, so I am very pleased that I didn't give in!
Good luck to everyone fasting today. Stay hydrated, stay strong and keep busy! Onwards and downwards!

Help! Apologies for submitting my previous post twice. Is there anyone out there who can remove one of them? Please!

I'm fasting today, egg salad for lunch prawn salad tonight, exactly what I had on Tuesday
@Margotsylvia there was a Fasting today thread on Tuesday because I posted on it, albeit very late in the day. There were only 2 people on it and we could have done with the company
