I am sooooooo on it!!! For life now!
I guess I should introduce myself, seeing as I intend to be sticking around for a while!
I'm 36 years old, have one daughter who will be 4 in April. I'm a single mum and work part time as a nurse.
The weight that I am now (14stone 11) is exactly the same weight that I was when I was 9 months pregnant, which has been depressing the hell out of me!! But not anymore as I now know exactly what to do about it!!
I have done some fasts over the last year or so.... But have been WAY too harsh on myself, attempting to do 36 hour fasts with nothing to eat at all, or trying to do 20:4 every single day.....nobviously not sustainable over the long term! I guess I thought I needed to take drastic action....but that is so obviously the wrong way to go about it!!
Anyway.... So here I am.... Today is my second week on 5:2, and my 3rd fast. I did 2 fasts back to back last week and will do the same this week just because it's easier for me to stay with it once I've started. If I have a day or 2 off in between I'm not sure I'd get started again. Last week the second fast day was much easier than the 1st.
So..... I'm going to waffle on here now and again to keep me focused....
