hi there Happyholidays

sorry you are feeling annoyed today, I am sure someone will be along very soon to suggest something, but please please don't be too hard on yourself, when I started 5.2 it took me about a month for the pounds to start coming off, so it does happen, its just a slow process for many of us!
my loss has been around 2 or 3 lbs every month on average, but so far its almost 12lbs so I am happy with that :-)

two weeks isn't that long, and it will happen, your body needs adjusting and then it will kick into action!
good luck and hang in there, stay away from those scales of you can :-)

oh, how frustrating! Have you taken any measurements? do your clothes feel any different/looser?
Otherwise if you give us a wee bit more info on how you fast like timings, how you split your calories, your TDEE, we may be able to help.

That's not right. What is your TDEE and what is your BMI?

Hi rawkaren......my tdee is 1650 my bmi is 29.....I can honestly say I have stuck 100% to the 5.2.....There must be something drastic I am misssing in the routine......I will say my shape is changing slightly but I did expect weight loss after this amount of time..
I will be grateful for any help.....
