The FastDay Forum

I hope your hair looks beautiful Azureblue! I haven't tried coconut oil on my hair yet but do put lots on my skin

It's fab and soft, feels much better.
Today we have been chasing the blue steam train Bittern around the countryside. Cold now!

I think she enjoys running out of puff..

Hi to all SSS Members
My new plan as of today Friday:::
Normal weekend with wine but a watchful eye on
food choices
Monday will be my first fastday followed by either Wednesday or Thursday depending on life's events, I'm only doing 2 each week for a few weeks to try and get them "true" fasts and concentrate on that for now all my other days will be 18:6 because this is actually how my days go and I will be shutting all windows + doors at 7pm.
However this week after my refeeding sessions and 2 sort of unsuccessful fastdays I've actually lost almost 1kg which is completely unbelievable but very acceptable
ta very much.

Excellent result and so pleased you've find a solution to carry you forward Sue!

Good luck Sue Q & stick with it because your plan seems to be working
Having been stuck for three weeks I have lost some weight! 2lbs this last week. It's very weird because I have no idea what my bodies doing there seems to be a sort of redistribution going on because I have lost inches.
Anyway best foot forward now or rather legs because my new exercise bike has arrived & I am going to try & tone up my legs, thighs & rear end I also rewarded myself for nearly losing 3 stone, 4 pounds to go, by buying myself a gold bangle. Last year I had promised myself if 5:2 worked for me that was what I would do & I had seen a second hand unusual bangle that I liked & didn't want it to disappear!
Your suggestion Sue of re-feeding I partly followed by doing my usual 16:8 & 5:2 week but eating slightly above my TDEE & it seems to have worked! So good luck for your next week on heading downwards.

Well done @isis Glad you've kickstarted you're weight loss again I do think creating confusion helps but whatever it is we'll take the bonuses along the way.
Nearly 3 stones wow brilliant get on your bike and that 4lb will soon be gone carefully though don't go to mad or you'll become saddle sore.
Love the rewards and what a fantastic pressie to give yourself the gold handle and you can't beat the "old" ones wonderful I hope you haggled for it.

Well done, @Sue.Q and @Isis, you both seem to have sorted out your bodies and are heading down! I only lost a quarter of a pound last week but that followed three good weeks in which I lost nine of my regained pounds, so no complaints from me!

Good luck to both of you! Onwards and downwards!

Brilliant @StowgateResident You've done extremely well and the quarter of pound would have been very welcome to me on a weekly basis instead of my 1kg yo yo yo act

Put it down to the fact that your not well @CandiceMarie But I have to say you did make me laugh so thank you for that but no not a surprise anymore shame about that but of course it could have been worse especially if you'd have been running him down.
Hope you're a little bit better today because up you have been quiet lately and that isn't like you at all you're not cursing me so I know you're not well
( have you heard from bigmama lately??)

Hmm have you ever thought,maybe its big momma who's taken yr award @Sue.Q??
Just sayin! X

I must admit @CandiceMarie That thought never even entered my head, Caroline's on the case now so watch out.

Well ive got my Thinking Cap on now @Sue.Q..some would say,its been stolen and it's purely down to jealousy..
BUT i ( Inspector Holmes at your service) think its all got something to do with the fact..you won Two Awards..
( hmmm ......puffs on pipe...) The forum just couldn't cope with the weight of two awards..and they simply fell off...
Case closed! xx
