Well after years of struggling with my weight and trying many different diets I've decided that a 'diet' isn't the way forward for me. So here I am, trying a new way of thinking and hoping to find that that 5 2 is a new way of life.
Started on Monday, and today is my first fast day. Feeling a little nervous about not eating til 6 this eve, but am keeping myself busy in the meantime. Have downloaded the my fitness pal app to keep track of calories, which is a godsend! Also started the 'couch to 5k' programme yesterday. Hopefully this isn't too much too soon but I'm sick of being overweight and unhappy.
Am also currently signed off work with depression, and so decided that setting myself this goal will help with that.
Anyway, there's my intro, I'm going to go off now and read all the inspirational stories and salivate over the recipe suggestions.
