The FastDay Forum

I am starting 5:2 today. I have about 60 lbs. to lose. I bought the Fastdiet book, which I have read, and I have the Fastdiet cookbook on order from amazon. I live in the United States and think it's cool that this is an international forum.

Hello to all!

Hi I am in Australia! Great isn't it! Good luck

Waving to Australia! Good luck to you too! This is a great way of eating.

Hi tealeaf! I'm new too and have also bought the book and watched Dr. Mosley on PBS. Have you seen the his video on the PBS site? If not watch it-it's amazing. This type of fasting is so doable and is really keeping my mind off food. I have lost 4 pounds in 5 days! I would like to lose about 50 pounds. I'm finding that my obsession with food is waning. Good luck to you

Hi to all the new starts!!!
Hope everything worked out on your first day....have you found that all the things you thought about eating today while fasting yesterday...you now really dont want?
I go to bed on a fast night thinking about hot buttered toast for breakfast....but next morning Im fine and settle down to my wheatabix without a backward glance!!
