The FastDay Forum

Morning all

Well I have read the book and I am ready to start, first fasting day for me is tomorrow.

Going to have some grapefruit for breakfast and then chicken and veg for dinner.

Hoping to lose about a stone and half, I will post my stats up with my first weigh in.

Looking forward to hearing how everybody is progressing

Hi Tigs and welcome!

Hi Tigs!

Hope your first fasting day goes well! I did my first one on Thursday and it is number 2 tomorrow. Dare I say number one was better than I anticipated so fingers crossed the trend continues.

Best wishes,
Ede

Welcome Tigs....and ede(dont think Ive seen you on here yet?)
Hope things go well for you both.....Ive just completed fast 7 and I promise it does get easier ......and loads of support on here1

Well I found yesterday quite easy. Total calories was approx 450.

Feel good today, not so bloated as I normally feel on a Monday..

Really looking forward to my next fast on Thursday.

Excellent news Tigs, glad your first one went well! I am on the tail end of second day and doing ok )

Hi Virginia! You are right only just started on here and had some teething troubles, explorer does not like me to be logged on and kicks me off in a few seconds, luckily firefox less fussy! )

Ooops my shocked faces above were meant to be smilies!

Well 1st week completed and I have lost 7lbs... VERY pleased with that ! Just under a stone now to lose and I will be very very happy

Brilliant Tigs, I had no change the first week but we will see what the scales say today. Good luck for this week!

Thanks Edie....keeping my fingers crossed for you today

Hi there all. I will be doing my 7th fast tomorrow and have lost about 4 lbs. I was just wondering what food you eat on a non fast day.Do you eat what you want,eg, chips sweets, crisps etc.Not all at the same time of course, I haven,t been counting cals on a non fast day have you?

Nope not counting the calories when I have not been fasting

Last week I had some of the following

Cupcake
Crisps
Steak and homemade chips (Deep fried)
Pasta and cheese sauce
2 x Meal outs, one was deep fried mozzarella, pan fried veal with veg and potatoes, the other deep fried calamari, steak and chips
Lunch was mainly homemade soup
Breakfast has been either grapefruit with blueberries or instant porridge and berries

Thanks Tigs33. I have been the same.I haven,t been counting calories and eating what I want.The only trouble is, I have stayed the same weight for the last two weeks,I am getting a bit disheartened.( sad face)
