Fasting Today, Thursday 8th February 2018
Posted: 08 Feb 2018, 12:17
Hi everyone! I'm back from my self-imposed exile from you all! I have actually gained weight since my return from my Christmas cruise, having already gained during it - that is not good but my head has not been in the right place so hopefully this week is not another false start.
It is five years since I joined this forum and started the 5:2 WOL. Although I have had times when I have regained some of my weight I have never returned to my original starting weight of 170 pounds - unlike my 50 years of calorie counted diets which always led me back to being over 12 stone!
I weighed in on Sunday at 156 3 pounds so nine pounds to lose before I am back to my target of 147 pounds. I am trying to increase my exercise but unfortunately have picked up a cold which has given me a very sore throat and taken away my voice and any desire to exercise! I am rather disappointed that it hasn't also taken away my appetite but, sadly, nothing ever does -
so that's not helping much!
Anyway, fasting today in the hope of getting going again. Good luck to anyone else joining me. Onwards and downwards!
