Hi, I am a 62 year old patiently trying to find a way to decrease my BMI. Athletic endeavors tend to leave me with some minor injury that gets in the way of continuing them. Therefore I only do light activity now. My weight always creeps up to 165 when left to my own devices. I can usually diet down to 145 but maintenance has been my main problem. Therefore I am hoping that the 5:2 plan will help not only with losing the weight but maintaining it. I do seem to adapt to structure but have a time sticking with it. I also like the idea of not living on chicken and fish with no desserts for the rest of my life. This forum seems to be a great support to those who use it.
