The FastDay Forum

Hi @Juliana.Rivers, please count me in! I haven't done a challenge since around this time last year so I think it might be time to give myself a kick up the backside! I would love to lose 1kg in the next few weeks.
I weigh weekly (or even fortnightly sometimes, but for this I will go with weekly) so I'm not promising to do the trend weight thing, though I will try and do three consecutive weigh-ins at the end of the challenge if I remember! It's good to try out different things to keep 5:2 interesting.

Thanks for organising!

sorry for the long delay @fancyacuppa.. you are member 12 on this challenge. 1kg is definitely doable~~~@@@!!! Keep us posted.

This is a great challenge for me. I went over my maintenance limit by 3lbs over Christmas. Managed to shed 1lb but need to see the back of the other 2lbs. Please count me in @Juliana.Rivers My trend weight is 10st 1.8
Thankyou! x

@Noodle thank you for joining! you are Member number 13. All the best to shed that kilo! just under 4 weeks to go.

So sorry for @pamie123 for your beautiful dog . I still haven't gotten over having to put our lovely cat to sleep three years ago as she was old and had a tumour. Broke my heart, she was such a lovely animal.

I'm in, anyway.

I actually weighed in this morning and I've lost 2 ibs since weighing in on NYE. Currently weighing in at 9 stone 3 (129 ibs, 58.5ish kg) and so very close to my UGW of 9 stone.

I'm curious if I can hit 9 stone by Valentine's Day. I think it's possible as still losing on average just under a pound a week even if there are many stalls. Good luck everyone!

Thank you for joining @Flic.. you are member number 15
Let's try for 9 stone... let us know how you go.

I haven't signed on in several days. Can you please add me to the challenge? My current trending weight is 141.8 pounds.

Welcome aboard @SammyIAm.. i had trouble connecting yesterday to the forum, hence the very late reply... but you are member number 14 on the challenge. All the best!

My weigh in day is Sunday but this challenge started fo me on last Monday, following a fast day. Rather an up and down week for me - member no 4 - but my average is 144.2 pounds, down from my starting weight of 145.7 pounds, so I am very happy with that!
We'll gloss over what I ate yesterday - that will be reflected in next weeks weigh-in!

Well done on a good start there @StowgateResident!

I've looked at the 3-day average, the 7 day average, the Excel graph extrapolation, .... but the news is pretty obvious by looking at my scales or my waistband. Since 12th Jan I've done 3 fasts as planned & the weight is at least a pound (450g) down. Could claim more ... or argue less ... the point is the roll of podge is diminished, I'm on track & delighted.

Just realised I should be posting with info! Haven't done this before.

When I opted in for this my weight was 12.06.06 (on 11/01/16) so I see that as a starting point to lose the kilo. My waist measurement was 39.5 inches. Unfortunately this week the weight went up to 12.07.06. But the waist went down to 38.5". I am being so good this week - honest!

Fantastic news @WarriorPrincess... i love an extrapolation in the right direction (down)

We are counting on you to be real real good @silverslimmerlol~ this group has a cumulative 15kg to lose.

Today is my weigh-in day. My starting trend weight was 141.8 pounds. Today that number is 141.7. I am down 1 kilo, however, since the start of the month. But I didn't join this challenge until the 16th so I'm still chugging along here.

CSW: 144 lbs
1/6/16: 143.4 (trending 144.2)
1/13/16: 142.8 (trending 142.8)
1/20/16: 141.8 (trending 141.7)

Thanks for adding me@Juliana.Rivers. One week on and my trend weight is 10st 1.1. So a loss of 7 ounces, lol. No idea what that is in kg

I don't think that I understand about trend lines etc and I made a mistake on even a simple average last week! My average weight for the week ending 23rd January should have been 144.7 pounds and this week it is 144.2 pounds. I don't think that I like averages much because I have gone down from 145.7 pounds when I started this challenge to 142.9 pounds at this mornings weigh-in! That's a loss of 2.8 pounds, which sounds much better!
P.S. @Juliana.Rivers, please use whatever numbers you like!

Sunday weigh in, my trend weight on Libra is 171.0 pounds. That's an additional trend loss of 1.7 pounds, for a total of 2.4. It was a rough week, but the trend seems to continue to move in the right direction, which is encouraging.
