The FastDay Forum

Morning everyone, I am also fasting today.

Nothing for me until dinner tonight - not sure what that will be but possibly something from Hairy Dieters!

I have to go for a blood test this morning so can't even have a coffee until that is done!

Good luck to everyone today.

I am on the fasting bus too. Still don't look forward to it or enjoy it but needs must etc

Mothers Day plus son's 16th birthday party = a sore head and therefore not an ideal day to fast..

Still, get one out of the way at the beginning of the week and the Sunday stodge intake will be but a distant memory...

Hungrier than normal though and it's not even 9am !!!

Fellow faster here, hope you don;t mind me joining you.

Starting week 2 & enjoying it so far. Nothing but water & black decaf for me until dinner tonight

Count me in too, fellow fasters Monday's my first fast day of the week - I also tend to look forward to it, after usually having had a good few feast days under my belt !! Desperately trying to reach my next goal of the 12 st mark and it's being a bit elusive at the moment (I've had a few family celebrations recently which I've attended and thoroughly enjoyed)- my daughter's home from an 8 month round the world trip in early April and I'm determined to hit that 12st mark (and maybe even a bit more) - she'll notice a difference in me at the Gatwick Arrivals gate !
Happy fasting fellow 5:2ers - hope it all goes well

So glad that today is a fast day. My hubby treated me to a curry last night after working a 13 hour shift on mothers day. Today was always going to be my first fast of the week, but I feel so sick I couldn't eat anything if I tried. Don't know if I've a tummy bug or the curry last night has made me feel unwell, the only thing I want to eat and much later on, is chicken soup, the thing I always eat when I feel unwell.

Third fast day for me today and it's gone well. Tried the two meals option today with my first small meal at 11.30 and dinner at 6.30, chicken and veg stir fry and melon dessert. OH and daughter had the same with more chicken and a serve of rice.
I did my lap swimming this am and have felt fine, just a bit hungry from 5-6pm.
Good luck to everyone still going.

Count me in.....saving all my calories for dinner tonight...chicken stir fry...yum yum. Soooo cold, forgot my gloves for the school run this morning and I couldn't feel my fingers ...had problems to hold the key to open the front door...back to normal now

Lucky me coming to the end of my Monday fast here in Sydney. Found it really easy today after a couple of wobbly days last week. Good luck to all you northern hemisphere fasters.

Hi. 3rd week, fifth day fasting and actually look forward to my repair days in a strange way!! Does help as well that I have lost 4lb and 2" off my waist. Yey!!

Good morning fasters, Monday is the easy one and hubby and I are well into this pattern now, week 10 I think. Usually we follow up with Thursday but this week will have to be Wednesday. Peppermint tea so far and feeling fine despite the snow outside.

Week 7 for me, fasting Monday, Wednesday and Friday this week as I had a brilliant weekend in London and enjoyed every calorie! Need to start introducing some exercise but the inches of snow outside make it hard to be bothered! Good luck everyone

Im fasting today. This will be the first week with two days. Aiming for mon & wed.Husband joining me today. It will be interesting to see if he can cope. I must admit I did find the first day last wed challenging.Ok till about 3pm then awfull. When I had my evening meal I was so ravenous I bolted some of it down and ended up with bloated tum and feeling sick. Threw half in bin and went to bed at 7 oclock. Hope I cope better today.

Good morning everyone fasting today-
I am really looking forward to this as I had only one fast day last week (more due to laziness than neccesity!)and am still feeling full from the weekend
Perhaps three fast days this week. Good luck all :

Good Morning world !! This is my 15th fasting day..I actually enjoy mondays as always eat loads over the week-end with no guilt which is super!!!!..However Monday bloating makes it so easy to have a "cleanse" ! Mothers day was lovely. I am not going near the bathroom scales until Sat April 6th. so no idea how weight is going but my fav. pair of jeans keep sliding down !! haha!! Good luck everybody...Think of it as giving your insides a bath!!! Drink that water!
