And nearly 18 months on from joining the forum...

I was dancing for joy, back in January, as I'd achieved the dizzying lows of 10.9lbs and was very happy to maintain this. Imagine my pleasure when, week by week, little by little, my weight dropped by another 6lbs to take me to 10 3lbs (143lbs).
I have now lost 33% of my initial start weight of 15st 3lbs, (213lbs), a whopping 70lbs in total. Not all of this has been achieved through 5 2, as I struggled to lose 14lbs or so before finding this way of eating. That still leaves a very healthy loss of 56lbs in a little over a year.
But this forum isn't only about 5 2, it's about support, friendship, safely being able to ask questions without seeming a fool and sharing positive experiences.
I'm now happily in size 12 (UK) and regularly being ignored by friends I've not seen for sometime, "because they didn't think it was me!!".
I now know 'what works for me' and, armed with that knowledge, I think I shall be happy to maintain my current weight for the rest of my life.
