Hi guys. I've just done the deed and have lost another 4lb this month making a total lost of 11lb! I am thrilled to bits as I don't feel I have missed out on anything as I eat out at least 3 times a week. My BMI has also gone down though not quite in the normal weight range yet. Thrilled with my progress but my poor hubby has gained 2lb. He's bitterly disappointed . Still, upwards and onwards.

To say I'm happy does not come near describing how I feel. My BMI is in the (top range 0f) normal for the first time in 5 years.

Weigh in 02/03. Weight. 61.9 kg. Body fat: 28.3%

Weight loss so far: 1.5 kg. Very happy, even though I didn't take waist measurement when I started I can see and feel that I have lost tummy fat, usually I don't lose from that part even when I was on low carb diet.

Really pleased with progress overall. I'm averaging about 1 1/4 pounds per week. Although I had hoped for a slightly quicker weight loss (I have best part of another 2 stones to lose) and I am a little disappointed with the slow inch loss from around my very apple shaped waist, what I wasn't expecting was the dramatic improvement in that feeling of well being, increased energy levels etc. AND not feeling the urge to snack all the time. I'm really into this WOE and so long as the scales and tape measure are going in the right direction, however slowly, I'm sticking with it!
Good luck to all other 5:2ers out there today! X

Hi guys. Great news for all you "losers" Am I missing a trick here? I thought we had to update our own progress tracker and that big brother (or sister Coralees or Moogie) pull the info from that. Can someone, anyone, advise a not very techy person please? Good luck with the next month people:-)

18 Feb: 171 lbs with waist of 33.5
2 Mar: 162 lbs with waist of 32

I started dieting on 18 Feb. The first week was really a low calorie diet but I had a couple of 900 cal days to (sort of) try out 5:2 way of eating. I lost 6.5 lbs that first week and the rest on proper 5:2.

Monty - I think we're to post here (if you want to join in the monthly weigh in) and update your own progress tracker too x
