Hi all,

I’m returning to 5:2 (or possibly 4:3, we shall see!), today, after a loooong break away. In all honesty, I can’t remember why I stopped, it was working just fine =/

Oh well, back to it, and I have to say I’m really happy. I made the decision on Friday and have actually been looking forward to my first fast day which is today. I’m thinking I will return to what I used to do which is mostly eat nothing all day, just have lots of black coffee, herbal teas, still and fizzy water, and save my allowance for the evening when I will have my usual New Covent Garden Soup (wild mushroom, yum!) and some fruit.

Luckily I haven’t done too much damage in the meantime, I just hate counting bloody calories all the time…

I feel like I’ve taken control back hurrah!

Happy fasting (or not!) lovely people 🙂

Welcome back! And Happy fasting to you! We all get side tracked for one reason or another. What matters is we get right back to it. Kind of like taking a detour on a trip. You get waylaid for a bit, but eventually, you get where you are going!

Likewise Dragonfly!

I’ve just had a bowl of soup, will have another for dinner tonight and just water and coffee in between. I’m struggling a bit today but I know I will have 4 days of normal eating once I’m done so that’s keeping me going!

Have a good one 🙂

I am having a bad fast day too! Sometimes they are trying!

I swapped cheese for peanut butter in an effort to curb my peanut butter addiction…now I can’t stop eating cheese! Ugh! Why do I have this uncontrollable urge to snack?? And nothing in my day is stressful, and I am menopausal so it ain’t hormones!

Ok, deep breath, drink my coffee, and regroup!

Better luck to you guys!

Aw fitnfast I know how you feel! I did sneak 1 chip from my husband’s fish & chips last night but managed to resist more. I have a peanut butter addiction too by the way, especially for Skippy, I can eat it straight from the jar with a spoon haha. If I had to choose between PB and chocolate for the rest of my life it would definitely be PB!

Oh well, fast days done this week, hooray!

Happy Thursday 🙂
