Fasting today Friday 24 May
23 May 2013, 21:36
Hey all,

I'm on a half day today - finishing up a 36hr liquids only fast at 12pm. I plan on having sushi to break my fast and maybe a small bowl of pasta for dinner tonight (and maybe some sneaky cherry slice for dessert :P )

Anybody else in?

Hey Fredi!
Happy Friday!
Doing my 2nd ever fast today.
Made a pot of vege soup last night and at 240 cals it is more than enough to keep me going through the day, will use the balance 260 for dinner and desert :)
I admire you for the liquid only fast!! you must be looking forward to lunch, only a couple of hours to go :)

Hey deedeelicious! I certainly am looking forward to breaking it, especially now that I've just planned to have lunch with a friend and catch up! Perfect end to a good fast!

Good luck with your second fast! Apparently they start to become second nature after a while - I'm not quite there yet but they are getting easier!

I'm fasting today too (though I haven't actually gone to bed yet, so tomorrow really). In a bad mood, but hopefully will wake up in a better one tomorrow... Good luck to all fasting today :)

Oh, Tada! I get my second chance to have my 2 bob's worth...I am a bit hungry now. we-ell :starving:
I did a half fast 2 days ago and was a goodygoody except for a slurp of vino and some yummy pub grub last night. Which included chips :oops:
But by now my fast is making hunger signals all over my rumbly tum. Ah, but it's good. I like it. I will savour tomorrow and enjoy some H2O and a bit of yoghurt later on. I will soooo enjoy looking at my scales with a number which I haven't seen between my toes for about 3 years...make that 4...grand.

I'm in, but not quite sure about tonight as family are having Chinese take-away to celebrate end of exams, so might want to join in - tricky to calculate calories, but just a sensible small portion should be manageable.

Have a good one, everyone!

Doodle, I've finished my fast for the day but I'm having Chinese tonight as well - going to be hard to stop myself from overeating, but I have both breakfast and dinner meetings tomorrow so I need to make some very healthy decisions to ensure that I don't undo all of this weeks good work!!

Joining you today. seem to have struggled with moving below 11 and a half stone for the last couple of weeks so I'm determined to lose this next half a stone. Good luck everyone. X

I've been away on holiday, eating loads of yummy food, so today is a bit hard getting back on the wagon! My head is light, my tummy rumbling, but I won't give in! This too will pass!! Cuppa Soup in 2 hours!

Still not lost much, but the figure is looking trimmer, and another pair of trousers is sliding off without a belt!

I think today will be a looong day! Woke up with tummy rumbles. Its my third fast this week so I might go 16/8 if it all gets too much. Thats the joy of the plan, you can adapt and not totally blow it. Sometimes just knowing that will keep me on track for the rest of the day.

Think I'd better go over to the fizzy water now. Already had so much coffee I'm twitchy and got eyes like a bushbaby!

I'm in! Feeling a little less hungry now I've downed a pint of water. It's visiting the parents day so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that my mum hasn't got a fridge full of cream cakes, as I'll probably have one thrust in my direction. I'll be declining politely...hopefully.

Have a good one everyone!

Hi I wasn't going to be fasting today but scoffed loads yesterday (3/4 of a whole bag mozzarella & pesto kettle chips, croissant, bagels, wine...) so I'm planning on just holding off eating until I'm actually really hungry & ready for it. Hopefully that'll be a late lunch type thing which would be around 15-16 hours since I last ate. Will probably break my fast with a yummy huge green smoothie (although with cocoa powder in it turns a horrible sludgey brown, still tasy though!)

Like Miffy, it's the adaptation that makes this plan so useful and is what allowed me to really enjoy all of the food I ate yesterday without guilt!
