Hello All
I have had a couple of weeks off as I have bought a house with my boyfriend and we have moved in together!
I am back to fasting today, and we have worked it out so that the meals I cook on my fast days can be adjusted to both of us.
Looking forward to getting back to the great results I was seeing before, I have lost 6lb and 6inches. Have gone up 2lb since stopping the fasting (and because I ate too many takeaways during the move!!!) but back on track now!
It feels great to be fasting again and I feel fine today 🙂
Have a great day everyone

Happy to join you on my first day on the FD. I’m one of the men doing this and hope it will be a lifestyle change. Read the FD book from cover to cover yesterday and decided to start straight away. Planning to do Mondays & Thursdays. Managed to keep myself very busy today – 5 hours in the office, 2 hours jetting the patio clean and a bi-weekly visit to the Physio who was not impressed with my diet plan! I decided on porridge (water only) for breakfast @ 7.30 am and chicken breast with lots of vegetables followed by an apple for dinner @ 7.30 pm. Two coffees and plenty of water during the day. It helps my wife’s a nutritionist. Seem to have managed fine with no strong urges to eat something inappropriate – did not partake in the cakes a colleague brought in for his birthday – hoping there will be a small slice left for me tomorrow.
Wish you all success and hope we all stick to it and ….only 9 hours ’til breakfast!
Hi Shana and others,
Shana, so glad that you posted. I am doing this with my husband and it’s the first time we’ve done a diet together. I’ve just started the third week (fasting on Mondays and Thursdays). It does feel like it’s getting easier. For me, it’s been important to try different kinds of food, factoring in a snack, and figuring out the best times to eat. Today has been the best fast day so far. I honestly wasn’t sure if I could sustain it last week. So, it seems to take time to adjust – as they say. It’s been fun to step on the scale with my husband on Friday mornings and see the numbers already coming down!
Good luck to you!
Hello everyone, it’s my first day today and I am hoping to lose just under 3 stone and keep it off. I have tried many diets over the last few years but always end up putting even more weight back on. I’m hoping this will encourage a way of life for me and not just a diet. Any tips on where to find the calorie contents of foods so that I can figure out what I can eat?
Hi y’all! I’m in my fourth week along with my hubby, and am finding it easier as we go on! Have lost 6lbs so far and feel great. My hubby has never been on a calorie counting diet before and as he does a physical job (plasterer) it’s very hard for him on fast days. I’m not sure that he will stick it but will continue without him if necessary! 🙂 Good luck all x
