I've done it! Sub 162 lbs, my lowest weight since 2014 when I joined fs🎉🎉


So I won't make my goal fir the wedding on Friday, but I'm not far off!

Will break my fast today.. getting eyebrows, moustache and beard threaded in prep for the wedding today 😉😁

I know my weight will increase when I refeed, but I know I can do it!

Into work early today.. loads to do before my annual leave and should be finished by lunchtime, so I'll catch up on everyone's journals and news this evening .

Just a note to ffbb.. thank you, I got the book, forgot to say with all the dramas!

Have a wonderful Wednesday fs friends 😎

Threading might be a good time for a pre-wedding drink. ;-) Congrats and here's to you being fabulous at a lovely celebration!

Since you're so close to goal, you should do a saltwater flush tomorrow to flush out anything extra from your colon that's weighing you down. Just take 2 Tablespoons of pink Himalayan salt and dissolve them in 32 oz warm water. Then drink it all within 5 minutes (I recommend using a straw, so you get less salty flavor in your mouth). The goal is to flood your digestive tract. Usually within 30 minutes, you will be ready to go. Usually within the first 30-90 minutes you will go several times. It's definitely an effective clean out. Just be nearby your toilet for sure... and don't ever trust a fart during this time! Teehee!

Thanks both 😁 Erika.. I'll try that this evening when I'm safely at home, before I break my fast

Well done 60.5 hours is a brilliant fast. I followed that advice of Erika's - it works - just book the toilet for an hour.

Did you manage to book tomorrow as leave? It sounds as if you have this all in hand and what a change in your BMI - from Obese to Healthy. A shining example to us all.

Good grief - 2 tablespoons is far too much salt! Looking up Salt Water Flush on Google it says 2 TEASPOONS! Do be careful, Poppy.

By the way, congrats on the weight loss and enjoy your pampering today 😊

Well done! I think anyone who can fast is amazing because I struggle with a 12hr fast when you have a cholesterol check.

DO you have any plans for your time off after the wedding?

FFBB is so right about wind-down recovery time, wish I could invite you for a spa escape after your big event! Have access to comfortable space with sauna etc (and plush absorbent BIG cosy bathrobes) I never take advantage of. Hope your Wednesday was not too hectic, and that your threading zones have calmed.

Way to go! Have a wonderful time.

Thanks all The salt water thing was a bit academic in the end as both my daughters were out last night and unsure what time they'd be back, so I couldn't be sure of a time window when I wouldn't be driving. (?!) so I'll try it another time, now that I know I can do longer fasts 😁 Thanks for all the support Ffbb.. I have airport runs today, sat and Sunday . Time with relatives next week .may take the kids to the lakes or dakes if the weather is ok 🤔
