The FastDay Forum

Howdy all!

I've heard so much about intermittent fasting in the last few months, and was really intrigued by it, especially how it seems to go against everything that's been said before, eat 6 meals a day bla blahh.

So i thought i'd give it a do! Today is my third fast, and its alot easier than I thought. And because its so simple even I can stick to it....hopefully

When I fast i just don't eat anything, I just drink water and brews

So about me;

I'm Jamie

I'm 6ft 1 and on the 1st of Jan I weighed 17st7.6.

I'm hoping to getting back to about 14.5-15st. I think i'd look ill if i was any less than that tbh

Heres my log so far;

1/1/2014 - 17st7.6
7/1/2014 - 17st1.4

Wish me luck. Hopefully i'll get to know you lot and we'll be able to achieve our goals together.

Good luck everyone!!

Hi @Jamie-F And Welcome to you this is one decision you'll have no regrets making. Good Luck to you.

Welcome! Looks like you are off to a cracking start!

The best of luck to you! I'm on my second fast day, and very curious about all this. I was tipped abouth a thread "Men Only!". Head over there for testosterone infused motivation and support if you like

Good luck on your 5:2 ing
Head over to the men only shed for good support, but it does get gate crashed now and again.

Hi and welcome to the best forum for honest advice and support, not to mention lots of laughs along the way! Best of luck with your fasts!

Thanks for all the support guys

Just a quick update:

1/1/2014 - 17st7.6
7/1/2014 - 17st1.4
14/1/2014 - 16st13.5
21/1/2014 - 16st11.2

Still enjoying 5:2 but the loss has slowed right down.
I keep cheating on normal days though :/ but aslong as I have nothing but water on a Monday and Thursday it seems to be going ok.

Started gym to since 1st Jan twice a week and seem to be making improvements.

Thanks for all your kind words and good luck
