The FastDay Forum

Hi there, lovely to find this forum. I am a food writer and run a food tour business, so naturally, weight gain is an occupational hazard for me. I suddenly gained 20 lbs. about 2 years ago. I have never tried a successful diet in my life until now. I am keen to share my experience and to hear about others. I am also keen to find great ideas for fast days and to convey my own.

I have recently started a blog on the subject if you'd like to have a look:

5:2 Vegetarian - How I'm losing 1 lb. per week

Happy fasting (and feasting)!

Hi Celia & welcome to the forums Sounds like a lovely life being involved with food like that, though I'm sure the weight gain was less than lovely. You must be thrilled to have found a way to compensate for it and presumably still enjoy your job!

It's bedtime in a moment but I'll try to have a look at your site soon, thanks for the link!

Well done on your loss Celia ... oh how odd that sounds! Where else, but in the world of weigh-control would you find one saying 'well done on your loss'

Lovely day job you have there

Well done on the loss Celia. I am really enjoying reading about other's success as it gives me motivation!

I'm vegetarian, and I have just read your blog - Thanks! you have actually made tofu sound appetising, normally I can't stand the stuff, but I am going to try your recipe next fast day.
