weight: 8st 6-8lbs

Ok so Im out of my hole. I've pulled myself out and knocked myself about a bit. I'm now going to set a plan to get me through the Xmas which allows me to maintain and not put up weight. No point in hoping for a loss since if I couldn't lose in the last 4 weeks of no drinking then I'm not going to lose over xmas. The plan is to mix 16:8 with 5:2 and watch the carbs if possible.
i have a lot of parties so its good to have a plan that is not too restrictive or I will fail. Was feeling a little helpless earlier as had lots of cakes in front of me and I gave in and gobbled a maple pecan plait and a biscuit and then came home and ate left over tortilla chips and dip. Im still probably only around 1400 cals but it was a fast day gone wrong. Today is Tuesday and I have a party Wed, Fri, Sat & Sun. Therefore my aim is mini fast of 6-800 cals tomorrow(depending on the restaurant food for my xmas party), I wont ddrink. Thurs
i am going to fast but because it is a second...

Popped back up to the 155 range this morning (10/30/2017), but feels like this is the ceiling instead of the floor this time, which is encouraging. Besides, my monthly cycles appeared today, so must allow...

I'm currently shifting a lot of my mindset and methods this week, so I'm jumping off the weeks and switching to days. This is, after all, a whole life kind of thing, right? Besides, I don't like having...

Good luck, @moderatemeals! I think you'll love this way of life!
Losing 1.6 pounds is hardly a plateau! You are not going to keep losing at the same rate as the beginning. You should be very happy with 1 pound a week!
Thanks for the comment, cblasz.
Maybe this WOE is so successful that everyone's lost the weight and got on with their lives! I can hope ...

Yes, it is terribly dead here, especially lately. I think that people either just have all the information they need or have stopped this WOE. It is a shame. But stick around. It seems to go in waves....
