I'm sure I will figure it out at some point, it just isn't as easy as I had hoped
@Debs I swear blind that it's the carbs that do it if I put weight on. And I mean any carbs, but particularly the refined variety! I do so hope that you will be successful soon Debs. I feel for you I really do!
Definitely agree that sleep is so important. Without the stress of work I am getting more sleep, so that has no doubt helped me too. I know of others with chronic poor sleep who are having lots of trouble losing weight. Seems so unfair. Solving sleep problems is not easy, nor is dealing with stress - if "you" are someone who can find a way of dealing with these fairly easily, then you are probably not suffering from them too much in the first place!!
Very best wishes for finding a way through your current situation

This technology astounds me
Interesting reading.i remember now wen I first started 5/2 last year I didn't lose anything for ages and then added a sort of 16/8 every day and the weight dropped
I kept it off for awhile but about 8 months ago I just gave it all up and after a few months all the weight I lost is back.
So I am now motivated with help,from the forum to get back into 16/8 and 5/2
Thanks
Like @sue.Q, I'm not giving up but am determined to find something that works. I know it is meant to be 80:20 diet and exercise, but I do wonder if the exercise will make more of a difference for me, so I shall increase my resistance work to see if. I can burn a bit more fat. I know that may stall weight loss but at least I will know if there is a difference and it will help with toning too.
Here we go again, wish me luck........
Yes there is a key somewhere just for you, the mystery is finding it, I had far to many carbs over the weekend so its pay back with a few days reduction, but all my normal days have now become more like 18:6 this seems to fit very nicely into my life, and will go back to a weekly weigh-in.
Obviously giving up my sugar has helped me both with calories and my carbs so at least 3 days of our trial my total was probably under 20g, now the dreaded sugar has gone I can bring quite a few days in quite low towards the figures I was getting so that's the route for me
from now onwards.
Really hope this kickstarts things for you Debs you deserve payback for your perseverance, I'll still be your trial buddie because I need mine to hold at least even the small tiny losses helps our mental state because we at least know its still working.

Being a lazy exerciser this is a big deal for me, and already feel better within myself.
I better be careful, my hallo is slipping!!!
cheers Maggie
