This is my my 15th fast today but I have to admit that I have had two failed attemps at doing my 15 th fast (one last week, one yesterday) and I sincerely hope that I will be able to stick to it like on fast days 1-14.
My recent feast days have also been rather binge days.
I have been a binge eater for years and years so there is really no surprise there but I just so much hope I will be able to be back on track... :bugeyes:

What triggered this unhealthy turn for the bad? With the 2:5 eating plan I always felt fine with the pattern two feast days and one fast day. The wider gap of 3 feast days seemed too long. I therefore changed to 3:4, but that proved too hard for me and I think triggered this past lapse which not only made my weight pile back on but caused me to feel really bad about my body and my nutrition again.

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....
