The FastDay Forum

Anyone else fasting today? I know you're out there!

I've had a weird adventure this afternoon searching various grocery stores for miso paste... no one seems to carry it! All they have is the instant miso soup mix. First world problem?

Sorry, didn't see this earlier. Yes I was and have managed it m sis nod off during Sherlock on telly though and have just woken up. Think that stopped me thinking about food lol. Am off to bed in a minute so have managed today

I have been fasting today but my husband has not! I reminded him yesterday that we would be fasting today but this morning, whilst I was out grocery shopping, he 'forgot' and by the time I returned he had already eaten his usual lunchtime sandwich. He then denied any knowledge of it being a 'fast' day! This is my first week of maintenance and so I continued with my fast and he will have to sort himself out another day, although I suspect that he won't bother!

Where is everyone? Surely there can't really be just three of us fasting today! If it is just us, then 'Well done!' for making it on a very hot Friday!

That's hilarious, StowgateResident! At least you remembered your fast day! Funny that you mentioned sandwiches... my boyfriend brought home a 3 foot long sub sandwich yesterday, and the whole thing is still sitting in the fridge! Trying to resist the temptation... haha.

Wonder if any other fasters will come out of the woodwork...

Hello everyone, I'm new and have almost completed my 1st fast day! Was not too difficult until evening when I had to make the evening meal for everyone else.
To the lady looking for miso paste, I usually buy at the Asian market in the refrigerator case.

Here I am. It is the end of the fast day. I did great up till 5pm. Had to go to grocery for the fam and came home with a pound of bologna because it was only 88 cents. To good a price to say no. So dinner was fried bologna sandwich. I'm disappointed in myself and feel sorry for the fam that I fed them that crap. But I hate cooking when fasting.

I did a fast too. In fact this week I have managed two great fast days. Still completely going crazy on non fast days but I am pleased as last week, which was my 8th week more or less, I could not even manage one day. I thought it was over for me, but here I am back again.
