The FastDay Forum

I am. Surely I'm not the only one today?? Good luck to anyone that may be joining me

I am fasting today, had a break of a couple of weeks due to holiday and some bad news so back to 5:2 , this will be my 11th Fast day.

Hi you 2 I know most people are eating normally at weekend but can't believe its only the two of you well I'm joining you but mine is a semifast where I go the 24hrs then eat whatever I want in evening, handy at w/end as I'll be doing 3 courses tonight + prob tomorrow, I've also got to be careful this week as I only just scrapped in witha loss on Friday
So Good Luck to us then Sue

I'm in too. I'm in a 2 weeks vacation but today is a long drive day from Whistler Canada to Seattle, so I thought it would be a good day to fast, but since I'm maintaining and on vacation I will eat around 650 cals. Had a similar fast day on Wednesday when we drove to Whistler.

And me. Not usually Saturday, but have a busy week next week, with a long weekend at the end, so want to get the fast days over early in the week - good luck to all on this hot weekend (in UK anyway!)

Me too, I'll probably come in a bit over 500 as I didn't intend to fast when I woke up, but when I realised I'd be nowhere near a 'feed' day anyway I thought I might as well! Having some leftover balti from my last fasting day for tea - so yummy and incredibly filling too!

I'm in. Never do Saturdays, but I'm on a stretch of 12hr nights and it's too hot to eat, so I may as well stick in a sneaky fast

Hm, ended up nearer to 700 cals than 500 today! I knew I'd be a little "over budget" but went for a run this evening and felt dangerously close to fainting afterwards so had a banana to get my blood sugar back up. Anyone else had this problem before?

Hi htalbot
I usually work out in the mornings and I have to eat a small snack before, otherwise, I feel bad and can't excercize efficiently. I do this on fast and feed days.
What is balti?
