Time to reflect and plan.
Just over a year ago, I started fasting on Mondays & Thursdays, eating 3 small meals. I weighed about 12st 4 lbs. On other days I changed what had been my normal way of eating - low fat low GI - to include a bit more fat. I soon changed to eating just once a day in the evening. I slowly began to lose weight and inches. My average weekly calorie intake was around 12200. I was going to Curves about twice a week and walking at moderate pace for 1 hour five times a week. I estimate this exercise burned about 1500 cals a week - so on 10700 net I was losing weight.
Last September, following advice from a physiotherapist, I swapped my regular walking for cycling,and gave up Curves. Other activities such as kayaking,longer cycles and the odd 5 mile walk stayed the same. My estimate for my regular weekly exercise now is about 400 cals. I weigh around 11st 6lbs and I consume about 11000 cals a week, still fasting on 2 days. I haven't really lost any weight or inches...

Nearly 5 years, my how time flies. My current weight is 135, and I have decided to start fasting more often to get to my goal of 128. Anything between 128-132 is good these days. I have been around...

With two big holiday events in the past 10 days, my eating parameters have suffered a bit to say the least! For some reason I just could not get myself to fast this past week AT ALL, plus those two events...

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...

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....
