The FastDay Forum

[Debs]

Yep, me too! We were supposed to go to Antarctica for my 50th but have had to put it off. Bali is lovely if you can find a quiet corner so it should be relaxing. We are off to Alaska and Canada in June for a bit of cold weather practise!! I CAN look like a whale there, all rugged up

I've not been doing it (adf) long enough to have a trend line! I only started using the true weight app yesterday. My tracker on here has been very erratically updated since I found the forum last April I could get it re-set I guess...

Ho hum. I know I'm doing it as per the rule book and it takes time to show I guess.

Funny thing today: I don't feel like eating much, which is novel. Not sure whether that's an automatic dieters response to a gain, ADF shrinking my stomach, or feeling a bit under the weather.

Goods news folks. Two weeks here nearly trying to establish base camp and tried on a pair of white jeans last night that were bigger than I thought on me. I don't have any scales or tape yet so found this quite reassuring! So just fasting when I could seems to be working fasting today

I wasn't too bad yesterday actually @Debs.

This morning I must admit I am up early as my tummy was grumbling all morning and the sounds woke me haha!! Again not that hungry though - going to do a quick workout on the treadmill then my weigh in! Cant wait!

So just did weigh in and for the past 2 days (fast/feast) I lost 500 grams (1.1 Pound)

I found I lost 300 grams (0.66 Pound) more by doing the fitness than I did without - although this is only one log entry so it may just be a coincidence.

I propose a name change!

Alternate Day Feasting - who likes the sound of that better haha

I'm toying with the idea of joining you all in the ADF tent - is there room?

Husband is away for the next couple of weeks (home for the weekend), so would be easy to try for a week and see how I get on. I will continue to stalk the ADF tent and perhaps take the plunge next week - although I normally fast on Sunday, so I guess that may as well be my first fast.

Although I normally save my 500cals for an evening meal, I am quite liking the idea of a lunchtime meal, maybe something to trial?? Mind you, I sometimes don't eat at all as like Debs I fidn this awakens the Hunger Monster.

Why not @Badgirl666, you have nothing to lose. Oh yes you have!! Join us losers in the ADF tent and see how you go!
Just sneaked a cheeky bacon roll from the canteen and feeling naughty, but the trend is lurching downwards. I shall be good and carb free for the rest of the day now. Honest guv!!

Boo hoo. Done my calories for the day.
Bulletproof coffee
Evolution juice (organic sweet greens and ginger)
Banana

@rawkaren - it must be about 3pm there? Is that you finished food-wise for the day??

Indeed I am. I was pretty used to fasting at the front end of the day when I was not working, but this might be different! I'm about to go to a meeting and providing I can drive home without feeling weird, I will probably be ok. I probably have a few calories left for salad in lemon juice if I'm desparate when I get home!

Feeling weird driving + those multilane freeways + four way junctions does not sound good Karen! Hope you get back ok, and not hungry!

Stop toying @Badgirl666 (blimey, the devil!) and jump onboard the fast train to slimness. Oh, ok, it's not that fast...but it's determined. It'll get there in the end

I really cant get over how steep that line is when I changed Diets - To me that speaks for it self **Points at all those watching this board with intent but not taking action**

hehe

Glad I'm not the only one who went crazy at Christmas Tim!!

Yes, I think you're right...the EOD keeps you on an even keel doesn't it. I give you full marks...but keep up the good work!
