Treat it the same as any other night. If you don't have work tomorrow, get up at normal work time and go for a ride instead. You won't drink tonight if you know you're up early doors.

Make yourself a big mug of tea (or coffee), sit back, and wade through the fasting thread for details!

Friday evening and about to finish work. I won't be doing my normal trip to the pub with a friend for a few pints. Hopefully Mrs Moose will be impressed by me not falling asleep on the sofa after dinner 
Hopefully I won't continue to be not impressed by not sleeping at night
Oh and consuming the world's largest portion of trifle earlier probably doesn't tie in with the idea of losing weight but it certainly was nice!

I wouldn't want to be doing 6+ hour bike rides on the fasting days, but generally I haven't had any problem - I don't even get particularly hungry. My strategy is to eat a lot of low calorie bulky food such as salad. I have also started making my own vegetable soup. These things are satisfyingly filling without actually adding up to many calories.mmm food for thought (bad pun!)
very interesting though

@david k tagged you so you get the ping of an update. PS it works if you keep to it. sadly i went on the 10:0 diet where i ate twice as much for 2 weeks and didn't fast. feeling sluggish now . looking forward to work proper next week when i can start again.
oh and sunday will be my last alcohol day for some while.

Watch it while you can - I'm sure that the BBC will have it taken down once they spot it is there!

Excellent idea Mr. Culture.
I've been hammering the booze, as well as other narcotics, for more than a decade. It's only in the last few months that I've started to care about the effects this is having on me, and reading through this thread has proved excellent motivation to pack it in.
Good luck to all!

In other news, I've felt like crap today, just like a hangover. Could be my body detoxing I guess!

Me too! I haven't felt like this since I quit smoking years ago, so I guess those cheeky ciggies around Christmas took their toll!
