It's here! The new & improved mobile FastDay Forum has launched!

View this email in your browser

Hi there errantbehavior

The team here at FastDay thought you'd like to know that we've been hard at work on a great new mobile design for the forum due to popular demand from the community - and it has now gone live!

We're sorry it's taken our little team a while to get this together but we wanted to make sure we got it right. We've listened to your feedback about the way it used to display on mobile devices and have tried to take as much of this on board as possible when creating the new mobile version.

> Bigger, clearer font
We've made the font bigger and clearer so you don't need to squint when using a small screen!

> Easier to navigate
We've re-organised the menus so that you no longer need to scroll down the page to reach these and have put all those useful links in a convenient drop down menu.

> Simplified layout
We've removed unnecessary elements from the page for mobile view, such as avatars and user signatures, maximising on small-screen real estate for the really important stuff - the posts themselves. The forum and topic lists have also been optimised for the small screen.

> Recent topics
You can now access the full list of recent topics by clicking the link at the top of the quick list of recent topics on the forum homepage.

> Ads moved & removed
We felt some of the ads just cluttered things up so we've removed those and also moved some other ads to be less intrusive. Do please remember that we depend on advertising revenue to keep the site running, but we want to be able to find other means in future.

We hope the changes we've made make it easier for the you when browsing the site on a mobile device :)

Click here to come and see the new look!

As always, we have tried to do as much pre-launch testing as we can - but our developers are only human and if you should find any bugs please do let us know on support@fastday.com so we can work on resolving them as soon as possible.

It's almost here! New FastDay mobile version coming soon...

View this email in your browser

Hi there, errantbehavior!

We've listened to feedback from the community since the FastDay site launched back in May and are pleased to announce that the new mobile version of the forum is coming very soon indeed!

We've tried to take on board as many of your comments and ideas as possible to make the mobile browsing experience smoother than ever. We've also taken this opportunity to enhance the look of the desktop version so there are improvements for everyone, whatever your screen size!

We're now doing our final round of testing and aim to have the new version live before the week is through. Keep an eye on your inbox for the launch email where we'll tell you more about the new features.

Of course there's no need to wait for the updates to visit the forum, you never need an excuse to catch up with the community... drop by today and say hello!
 


If you're not so confident with technology, we'd like to assure you that the way the forum works is still the same as always, so you won't need to learn any fancy new tricks to keep in touch with your fasting friends! We've just made the layout cleaner, clearer and easier to navigate on a range of devices :)

Got problems logging in or need a bit of help? You can email us on support@fastday.com and we'll respond in a jiffy. We also have a handy facility for resetting your password if you've forgotten it so you can get back in to your account right away.

See you at the forum soon!

FastDay Friends Weekly: fasting news, views & delicious chews!

View this email in your browser

Hi, errantbehavior


Welcome to the FastDay Friends Weekly newsletter, our community news and a great way to find out about some of the fantastic content on the FastDay site.

This week we've been reaching out to successful fasters so that we can bring you more of the stories you love to read! If you've had great fasting results and would like to share your experiences, do email us.

Wow! Kirstin lost 20% of her body weight!

 

"My biggest tip is to find the right headspace before you start... I think once your thoughts are in the right place, everything else follows."
 
 Could your fasting story inspire your fellow fasters?
Get in touch, we'd love to share it!

Community shout-outs!


It's not plain sailing for everyone when it comes to weight loss and indeed life in general. This week we're sending our love and support to some FDers who have had a bumpy ride since they started but have persevered. 

So, Karenm and Wolfie this shout out is for you lovely ladies and to your continued success, whatever the pace may be.

Om nom nom!

What's the buzz?

Every faster knows these are true! You know it's a fast day when...
What do pet food, milk and toothpaste have in common?


 

Did you know...?

How does exercise affect metabolism?
Exercise is good for our health, but it doesn't affect our weight much....

The results are in!


Last week's poll question asked which days are your fast days? The results haven't surprised us here, with the majority opting for Mondays (37%) and Thursdays (28%). Mondays prove popular as a means to repair following a sometimes indulgent weekend and Thursdays allow us to break the fasts up with a couple of days between, also allowing for any Friday night social plans we may have.

Weekend fasting does not seem to be popular, with just 4% fasting on a Saturday and nobody wanting to miss out on their Sunday roast (did you know you can enjoy a roast dinner within 500 calories? Planning is key!).

Despite the flexible nature of intermittent fasting, only 6% of the voters say they vary their days each week. I am among those few, on medical grounds - I have to fit my fasts around clinic and hospital appointments!

This week's poll is about how you discovered intermittent fasting, voting only takes a second so click here to stand up and be counted!

Great new mobile forum coming soon!

We've had a lot of feedback about the site since the revamp and in particular a lot of requests for a more mobile-friendly version of the forum. It's been in development for a while now but we're pleased to report that it will be launching very soon so you can keep up with your forum friends more easily when you're on the go.
Watch your inbox for our launch announcement!


See you at the forum!
