After a full five days off, we're back to fasting today.

Hopeful I'll make it to dinner without eating

It's my first fast day today... tried to go as long I can without food but not used to not having breakfast so had a fat free yogurt at about 10am! It's lunchtime and I've managed on 134 cals so far so fingers crossed I'll make it.

Stomach keeps rumbling though!

Yup, got my bean salad, grated carrot and miso soup in front of me as I type.

Only just finished my homemade bacon and blackeyed bean soup, which I'm chuffed about! Especially as my tummy was rumbling by about 8am this morning... I did wonder how I'd make it through the morning, but it's served as a good reminder about how you can ignore hunger and it goes away. So yes, that's the first thing I've eaten today - just got by on about 1.5 litres of water so far and about 4 herbal teas.

I've been doing my fasting on Tuesdays and Thursdays but I must admit the four day stretch over the weekend does feel like an awfully long dangerous time!!

Hi, first post! Just having my lunch of cottage cheese, ryvita, raw courgette and celery. I usually do three 200 calorie meals on fast days.

Good luck to everyone fasting today.

Yep fasting today, haven't eaten since 9pm last night. Going to hold out till 7ish tonight. Been on black coffee and water all day feeling good .

12:50pm and going strong. I did some cleaning, got a new purse and I've dusted off the treadmill. Look out, I may actually use it today! It will be the first time since my thyroid went bonkers again last summer and I used that as an excuse to stop all exercise.

I hope nobody was watching Comic Relief Bake Off!

Tempting stuff and sent me trotting to the kitchen (not a fast day for me!)

I tend to go to bed earl on a fast dy - make tomorrow come quicker
