The FastDay Forum

Morning, I'm in today a 24 hr possibly with my 500cal I'll see how the day goes. Finished at 7 pm tonight. I also find that it makes it easier to eat less on the Saturday. Enjoy the day guys it's a beautiful one!

Morning all! I'm fasting today. I also have to frost and decorate 96 cupcakes and 1 giant cupcake for a civil partnership I'm attending tomorrow. It'll take all my willpower not to lick the bowl!

Morning all! I'm also in today, had most of April off 5:2, due to holibobs etc now on the 2nd fast of May- did really miss it! Also had the brace tightened yesterday, so it's liquids and mushy foods all the way for a few days now- lovely!

I'm planning my first fast of the week today. I had my son visiting and now my daughter. I managed 2 days when my son was here, but today will be the first since my daughter arrived.
Have missed fasting and feel huge.......
So today it is. Off for my first black coffee of the day now.
Good luck everyone.

I'm fasting too today - 2nd fast of the week cos I missed Monday due to holiday. Bit worried as going to Hairspray tonight - have sugar free sweets for show just in case - but positive thinking

I'm fasting today too! Third this week and fifth overall. So far, eating nothing until evening meal (and a very low-cal one at that!) seems to be working best for me, so am aiming for that again today.

Have big first communion to attend on Sunday, so need to make room for all the grub that will be on offer and I'll be expected to down

I'm doing it today, don't like fasting Fridays but it'll keep me off the booze and I'm not going out tonight. I'm about to go for a drag with the idiot dog but it looks quite stormy so it may not be the full 4 miles! The weather doesn't bother him but I got seriously battered yesterday. Welcome to spring in West Wales.

I'm fasting today. Fridays are quite a good day for me to fast as we tend to have wine on a Thursday night and then again on Saturday. That said, I've yet to establish a regular pattern for fasting - but isn't that the beauty of the flexibility of the plan? Some days I've planned to fast and realised when I woke that my heart isn't in it, and other days I haven't planned to fast but find that by lunchtime I haven't eaten and am not fussed about food, so I carry on and make it a fast day

To the person who queried the only eating one meal but not a very low calorie one, that's what I would be doing as well. Every little helps and all that.

I'm fasting today - I normally do Thursdays but I got some bad news yesterday that threw me off. Today I made it through most of the day without a problem but now it's evening and I really want something sugary while studying! Just trying to remind myself that tomorrow I can eat regularly.

Good Morning this is my third fast of the week. Good luck everyone!

Morning all. I'm fasting today. Looking forward to my official weight in tomorrow morning. I am a daily weigher though only record it on a saturday. Having been a bit slow the last couple of weeks, I sense good things this week.

Good luck everyone!

I also fasted today but it's already 7.30 pm here and I have just spent my 500 cals on 2 glasses of champagne and half a bag of cheese twisties! lol well spent I say! WOO!

That was my 7th fast and weigh in is tomorrow morning before I break the fast with breakfast (HA!)... hope the champers and twisties won't affect the weight on the scales... it doesn't matter where you get the calories from right?... right... guys?

I'm fasting today too. Started last week so this is my fourth fast. The scales recorded a loss of 2.5lbs for last week so I'm pleased with that, especially as the bank holiday was not great. The first three fasts have been relatively easy but I feel like today might be a bit harder for some reason. I'm trying to keep a positive attitude though.

Count me in! Together with my bad mood and my headache.

I'm in, got to get rid of last weeks gain

Good luck everyone
