Hi, In need of some insight !
Started 5:2 last Monday. Fast days are going to be Mondays and Wednesdays as this is what fits relatively easily into my life. Last Monday split my 500 cal allowance into lunch and dinner, on the Wednesday consumed them in one meal. Hadn't read the book but have gained most of the info I needed from the website. Have eaten as I normally would the rest of the time. I know it's best to just weigh in weekly at the same time but couldn't help a peak at the scales on Thursday morning after my fast day to see if I was going in the right direction. Was chuffed...had dropped 3 lb. Now for this morning...The official weigh in...Im exactly the same bloody weight as when I started .
I bought the Mimi Spencer/ Michael Mosely book on Thursday and have read a third of it so far. I haven't yet got to a bit where it says anything about restricting yourself on your non fast days, in fact it sounds as though calorie counting should not even be thought of when not fasting....why then have I lost no weight ?
Help ! I was so excited and raring to go last week, didn't find the fast days too traumatic but a tad despondent this morning.
