The FastDay Forum

Um...yippee too? Shall we all plan a birthday party? On a day that isn't a fast day for any of us?

Yes deffo! I know Penny is 29 oct..when are you WJ? X

Yes certainly count me in please - I am a 61 year young Sassy Senior.

cheers
Maggie.

Mine is Nov. 10. Birthday parties are one thing, but I'm hoping to have an extra special blow-out virtual party sometime in Nov. when I reach goal!!

Ooh i am the ninth! X

Hi All
Now can i join you? I've already joined twice before with dodgy wifi and my application must have gone
into cyberspace.
At 64 i do qualify my joints have been warmed-up with spanish sunshine, even the throat infection i've bought back with me is'nt going to get me down or my predictive weight-gain, yes i'm still on a high and back to a fast tomorrow willingly, so pretty please can i come in ? Sue

Welcome @Sue.Q the more the merrier! *hug*

Penny, doing the tag that way would have worked but you used a } instead of a ].

Certainly did - just checking to see who was paying attention
Take a bow @wendyjane

... There are some SSSs who are getting very girly and giggly at the back of the class this morning! Birthdays are no excuse for getting overexcited now - you should know better at your age

Am I in? Do I need to post or do anything?

Welcome one and all, this place is tardis-like and has infinite capacity for happiness and hugs.
It's actually not raining this morning hurrah hurrah, so my builder has arrived and put up a new back gate hurrah! This makes me ridiculously happy, though the clouds are once more writhing overhead.
Little grandsons arriving soon so playtime will begin :0D

Just come back from my routine 60+ health check.So, despite still being technically obese amd allegedly eating too much salt and drinking too much alcohol ( this based on the fact that I only drink 3 days a week rather tha every day) it seems my risk of having a cardiovascular event in the next 10 years is 5.9% which is not bad for someone who is cracking on 62

Well done Lil!

I am one happy bunny!

Just had a few days with my 7-week-old grandchild, Oscar Charles. Our fourth, but my daughter's first. His pics are on my blog - shortly to be updated.

And tomorrow my wife and I will celebrate our 43rd anniversary.

Thought you'd like to see the words I've written on her card:

"I loved you then
I love you still
I always have
I always will."

Ps. I'm just about to put my SIL's bottle of port back in the cupboard!

Yippeee, I did it!
I have just completed my first 5:2 Fast and I feel terrific, but the best part was last night after having eaten the 500 calories for the day, whilst watching TV I was thinking I felt like a cheese and biscuit, but I told the feelings to go away and they did. I conquered!!
Many thanks to one and all for your support and this great forum.

Maggie.
