The FastDay Forum

I started 5:2 two weeks ago and was disappointed after my first week to find I didn't lose any weight... HOWEVER, talking to people on here encouraged me to continue with patience, and I lost two pounds this week, so I guess it's working!!

Would just like to say a massive thank you to everyone who supported me last week when I wasn't feeling so sure about this... It looks like you were all 100% right!

Awesome! Keep it up!

Good stuff milly may! Exercise patience and it will work given time. There are many factors why your loss may be slow, appear non existent but there are usually reasons. There are posts on here about why you may not appear to be losing.

Fingers crossed for you!

Well done.

I can only agree, I also started 2 weeks ago, on 6 Jan and this morning I am 1.8kg down but what I am most pleased about is the 5.5cm off my waist.

That's awesome! Congrats!

Well done on getting some of the weight off and on your patience.
Have you measured - everywhere? Sometimes there are changes in measurements when the scales stubbornly will not move (for a time). It can help keep motivation up.

Well done @millymayand @brian1 for a terrific first couple of weeks and for keeping the faith!

Thank you everyone! @brian1 that's an amazing loss, I would love to lose that much off my waist in just two weeks! :O
