I am delighted to announce that today my trend weight is at target!!! It has taken me almost exactly 18 months to go from 105kg to 65kg, dress size 18-20 (UK) to size 8-10. I've reduced my waist from 40" to 27".

I am beyond chuffed as you can imagine!

Before starting:

A couple of months ago (nearly at target):

Today (badly taken selfie!):

You are AMAZING!

You look amazing, you've list and amazing amount of weight in a short period, and best of all is that you obviously FEEL amazing. I am so, so happy for you.

What an inspiration!

Many congratulations! Your commitment to this WOL, the extent of your loss, and your consistent downward trend with your weight is very impressive, as is your knowledge and the support you offer everyone.

You don't look like the same person! You must feel so pleased with your achievement. All the best for maintenance.

I am so happy for you @carorees!

You are a total star and an amazing inspiration to us all! Thank you so much for posting your photos - they tell such a story and give the rest of us terrific hope.

What a fabulous summer you are going to have! Every year, for years and years, I have wished I could be slim in time for summer! Of course, there are no magic fixes.....but 5:2 is the closest you can get to magic. You are living proof of that! Somehow, you found the willpower & determination to really do something about your weight...and the results are incredible!

I too started my 5:2 journey last November at a size 18/20........& can't wait to see where this WOL will lead me. May 25th will be my 6 month mini-Fastiversary....& I am already pretty chuffed with how far I have come.

Huge congratulations to you and grateful thanks also for all the time & effort you put into this wonderful forum. I think you are great! Xx

YAAAAYYY!! You look like a different person!

Congratulations and very well done. You must be so pleased. A great advert for this WOL.

absolutely amazing and as the others say - an inspiration to us all.
I will never be slim before this summer (at least there is less of me) but maybe for next winter and the vacation I dream of?
And you looks so much more happy as the slim you

Your weight loss is admirable but as I looked at your pictures I couldn't help to see how much younger you look! I am wondering if you had periods that you 'cheated' on a fast day or if you really able to maintain the 24hr fast?
