That was me, first weight watchers meeting when I was 11yo, and right now at 41 years old I weigh less than I did then 😲
Welcome to the group, we’re a good bunch, try to be supportive while also delivering a bit of hometruth when it’s needed and helpful advice wherever possible.
What were your symptoms before when you went up to 5mg, and being really honest with yourself what was your diet like at the time?
Its not always the case, but often we see links between drastic undereating or ‘poor’ choices and symptoms (junk food, refined carbs, low fibre etc).
Most of us see better and more consistent losses and feel way better when we eat around 500 calories below TDEE, a good mix of Protein, fat and fibre, reduced but not eliminated carbs and complex rather than simple, so ryvita instead of cream cracker, whole grain seeded instead of white bread. Plenty of green veg, berries, kiwi fruit will help keep your digestion working.
And the secret weapon, that everyone overlooks or forgets about, it’s certainly the thing I have to remind myself about most often, WATER!!!! Black coffee, black tea, herbal teas, squash, diet soft drinks, however you can get it in is fine but you need loads of it. About 2lts a day will do it.
