The FastDay Forum

No-one else fasting today? Just me then! I have been busy this morning with our U3A Accordion Group, which meets at my house every Thursday morning, so that has kept my mind off food. My body is now telling me that I need lunch but I am not giving in as I know that this will soon pass. The answer is to keep busy, so this afternoon I will be mainly ironing and getting ahead of myself with assorted paperwork. The fatal thing for me is to sit and do nothing because then my head turns to food!

I haven't decided yet what I will have for dinner this evening but there is sure to be meat or fish in the freezer that I can do something with. Baked salmon sounds as if it could be suitable but I'm sure that inspiration will strike this afternoon!

If you're also fasting today then have a good one and, if you're not, then enjoy yourselves! I can have whatever I want tomorrow - in moderation, of course!

Hi, did join you yesterday but didn't log in. Went surprisingly well, barely felt hungry at all, even at the cinema in the evening.

I was reminded of it as watched The Truth About Slim People on Wednesday night, and IF got a brief positive mention there.

Still have horrible cold/cough, but wasn't affected by fasting either way.

Good luck to everyone fasting today and over the weekend.
