The FastDay Forum

Hi all!

Only just found that this forum actually exists, I started the 5:2 diet earlier on in the week with my first fast being on Monday, today being my second fast! It's going well so far, I've been having a few fruit drinks spread out through the day on fast days just to keep my hunger pangs down as well as drinking a lot of water.

It might just be my perception but I already feel like I've lost inches around my stomach, haven't actually measured though but considering I'm only on my second fast day, I probably haven't

Hi there!
I only found this site a few days ago, and love it too. Well done on doing your second fast day. You are probably right in saying you won't have lost any inches yet - but I would really encourage you to take your measurements and write them on a calendar or something. I started doing this at the beginning of Feb and have found it really uplifting if I am feeling I haven't lost any weight to dwell on the inches I have lost! Good luck!
