The FastDay Forum

I'm in! On holiday last week so had a small weight gain, looking forward to getting back to it! Fast number 16 for me.

Hi all, I'm fasting today first time in four or five weeks. I haven't been well but that is sorted now, thank goodness. I am hoping it won't prove too difficult to get back on the wagon, at least I know from past fasts that I can do it even if there are times I could eat anything that isn't moving.

I´m in too. Went to scale on this mornging and jei, I´ve reached my goal! Still going to continue on 5:2 for a while. We are going to Kiss concert in the evening, but I´m still having a fast day. Just taking water with me to the concert.

Have a nice day everyone!

I'm in, and I have really been looking forward to fasting from about Saturday! Too much food and drink over the weekend

I have gone without breakfast for the first time, I have miso soup and an apple for lunch. There are grumblings coming from my stomach but hopefully, once I'm busy I'll not notice it!

Today is my Fast Day Numero Uno!
I have fruit for lunch and salad for tea and lots of coffee and fruit tea inbetween and a 40 minute gym session afterwards to kick start the process.
Not feeling anxious anymore thanks to this blog and all my family and friends who are supporting me!

16 weeks for 16lbs...lets go!!!

im in .. first fasting day for me ...

I'm in!
Mind you, won't be as low cal as usual because we're out to a beach BBQ later... Still, I normally save most of my cals for my evening meal anyway, so I'm not going to stress about it, tho I'll avoid alcohol.
Good luck everyone.

It's exactly two months now since starting the 5:2, and as I posted in another thread I've lost 11lb according to the scale but my body shape hasn't changed and my clothes do not feel any looser, very irritating.

I can also feel a cold coming on, I've had a sore throat and a bunged up nose over the weekend. Is fasting recommended or best avoided when you're feeling a bit under the weather? Today is supposed to be a fast day for me.

Oh man, I'm soooooo in today! Glad half-term is over, and all of the day trips over with where I've been tricked by the smells of fresh doughnuts, candyfloss, cinder toffee, ice cream, fish and chips etc etc etc etc etc!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep I'm back and todays a fast day, last week's holiday was brilliant, plenty of good food exercise and the occasional tipple!

So 2 or maybe 3 fast days this week will soon sort out last week.

Good morning fellow fasters, I am fasting whilst snuffling with a cold or hay fever. At bit bleurgh but hope for the best and press on.
Remember
You can eat it TOMORROW!
:0)

Its my first fast today. Did this earlier in the year and I know the first couple are tricky so will be glad when this week is over. Green tea with a hint of sugar then fruit teas all day some sort of veg mix from tesco for tea

Good luck to everyone on their first fast day today!!

I decided to fast today after all, currently in lectures sipping a coffee for breakfast

I'm in! Last week was a bit strange in terms of fasting as I did Tuesday and Friday instead of Monday and Wedneday, and the Friday was a mega mistake as I felt grumpy all day. But looking forward to trying again today. I think I'll have a cup of coffee to wake me up.
Good luck everyone

I'm doing my 36 h liquid fast again; had my birthday last week so enjoyed lots of yummy things! Feels good to start the week with a fast. Only a few more hours to go... Happy birthday to the birthday girls, and I hope everyone has a good day!
