Just wanted to post on here because I am SOO over the moon. Its been my first week on 5:2 and I'm not going to lie, I have found it difficult. Not the fast days; I have actually enjoyed them, and not found them very difficult with regards to hunger etc. It's the feed days I have found difficult. I have a very long history of binge eating and it has been really hard for me to stop overeating on my feed days. This week I have had a few days where I have overeaten massively, and I have also felt really guilty in doing this. BUT I know that 5:2 is going to change my WOE and change my attitude towards food. Even now, after just one week of 5:2'ing its my feed day (pancake day as well!) and I don't feel the need to overeat, even though I have lots of opportunity to. And the biggest thing I'm happy with.. even after my not-so-great first week, I managed to loose 1lb! Its given me such inspiration, like if I can loose one pound on such a bad week, what could I do on a good week?! So just wanted to share that I am very happy with my progress, albeit a bad week, I know where I have gone wrong and am looking forward to changing my ways in the very near future
