The FastDay Forum

Hey all, I'm Sean. I live in Washington, DC, USA.

My first fast day is today! It's going OK so far. Looking forward to finding what works for others, and gaining a network of supporters / cheerleaders

Welcome to the forums, @s34nDC! What's your plan today? Are you grazing or saving all of our calories for one or two meals?

I'm having a pot of herbal tea right now to get me through. Just a few more hours then I can have dinner with my family.

Are you going to get snow tonight?

Hi Tracieknits, I've had 250 calories today, mostly almonds. Also a cup of coffee & 3 cups of tea (!). I've been up since 7:30am... so I've made it about 7 hours. I'm feeling OK, but having trouble focusing at work (a bit dizzy / disoriented). Occasional wave of hunger, but that's manageable. I plan to eat some carrots when I get home from work, and then a very small dinner as early as I can -- my 2 boys won't go down until 7:45 or 8pm -- and after that, go to bed early.

Sound doable?

Welcome tot he forum and Good luck! Well done on commencing yr first fast! X
