2nd fast day went well :)
21 Feb 2013, 21:14
This is what I had:

2x strawberries
2x cups of tea with semi skimmed and 1 sugar
Cheese/leek/onion quiche without the pastry
salad and a bit of salad cream
diet coke can
1x options hot choc

Just under 500 cal and feeling pretty damn good! Have learnt this week to switch my Monday and Thursday fast to a Tuesday/Thursday feels far easier not jumping right into a fast after the weekend.

Woo!

Well done, sounds like a good day of it :)

I heard somewhere about a way of making quiches using squashed up cous cous instead of pastry. Might have to look into that as quiche seems like a nice eggy change from omlette!

Sounds interesting :) I am quite excited at the moment to be honest, just hope the scales reflect that on Tuesday

Hi Sophtwizzle!
Congratulations on your second fast day.
I did my second day yesterday too, and though once i had my 500 cal meal in the evening i could have carried on eating, i did feel pretty good about it all.
The meal was grilled chicken with Harissa paste & bulgar wheat salad - all from the Hairy Dieters cookbook and it was fab. Finishedoff with a glass of Diet Pepsi with a slice of lemon in and actually didn't miss not having a biscuit or something for a pudding.
Hope i can get through the weekend now without undoing all the hard work!
Will keep everyone posted :)
