Had a not so good week last week, calorie wise. I don't count so no idea how much I consumed, but I was convinced the scales were not going to like me this morning.
On Sunday we ate out at a Turkish restaurant, I couldn't eat it all so we took it home and had leftoveres the following day.(Pretty sure prior to 5:2 this would not have happened.)
On Monday had a blueberry muffin at work for breakfast (I never buy these as I try to not buy stuff that I can make myself - it works as I then don't have time to make it anyway) - took them in to cheer my teacher up - didn't work - then found out we were getting the dreaded Ofsted in on Tuesday - at this point I decided that this was not going to be a good week.
Monday after work I was eating Nutella out of the jar.
I also had some dairy milk 
Tuesday fast went well until I got home from work, felt exhausted, so we got a kebab
but... but.. mine was a small one...
Wednesday myself and teacher polished off the remaining blueberry muffins. In the evening myself and Hubster were scoffing Belgian chocs(hubster brought back from stag do), homemade caramel popcorn and maltesers leftover from the weekend (leftovers from weekend? No such thing prior to 5:2).
On Friday it was someone's birthday, so I had a piece of carrot cake and a very small sliver of cream and jam sponge. Oh and two different biccies, neither of which were worth the calories. I'm sure there were other things I'm forgetting - possibly a creme egg....
So I weighed this morning thinking the best I could hope for was a maintain and I've somehow manged to lose .75 lbs. Maybe it's because I didn't indulge as much as I would have previously, maybe it's because I know when to stop better now and maybe it's because I know that one bad week doesn't mean I've ruined my entire life but I LOVE this chuffin' non diet.
Seriously if you're reading this forum and tinkering with the idea of starting 5:2, stop wasting time and do yourself a massive favour and get started. If I'd started a year earlier, when I first heard about it, I'd have reached target by now.
