Today is hard. Not sure why though. My other fasting days have been easy, so I didn't even bring any low calorie snacks with me to work.
Just need to keep busy I guess.
For those fasting, what strategies do you use to make it easier if it's hard going?

Fast Diet continues
Thursday 20 June 2013
Today is my second fasting day. I have to say that I found the first one on Monday a breeze. I even went out for coffee at lunchtime to a cafe, but just had a black coffee and didn't feel tempted at all.
Today may be a little challenging, as it's FREEZING cold today, but I am determined not to fall off the wagon.
I have found that I'm more conscious of what I eat on non-fasting days, which can only be a good thing!
I've been reading the forums on http://thefastdiet.co.uk/ and it is really great to see the different ways that people are tackling this way of life and reaping the benefits! Heaps of meal ideas too!
If you're thinking of trying this way of eating/living, I would really encourage you to give it a go. See if a friend or a family member will do it with you. I know of one other person here in Invercargill doing it, I'm sure there are more!
Keep warm!

Starting the Fast Diet (5:2 Diet)
Monday 17 June 2013
Today is Day One. First fasting day. Haven't yet weighed myself because I can't find my scales, so might have to duck into a pharmacy (or next door to Weight Watchers) to weigh myself. I also need to buy a tape measure so that I can take some measurements to track my progress. I'm dreading what the numbers will look like, but I guess I have to know where I'm starting from. It's all going to get better from here!
For those of you that don't know, the 5:2 diet is about intermittent fasting. As a woman I can have 500 calories 2 days per week and eat as I normally do the other 5.
Stay tuned for updates!
