Hi
I’ve been lurking across the forum for a while and decided to get involved at last. I’ve been doing 5:2 for about 3 months and have lost only 3kg. Now, I say only 3kg because I see others dropping bigger numbers. But yes it’s better than gaining 3kg or staying where I was, and I have lost a few cms so it’s all good!
So I have turned my attention to why I haven’t lost more weight – I usually track fast days on my fitness pal, and don’t go mad on non fast days. I have concluded I have STD! That is, “selective tracking disorder”, a classic dieter trap where some of the things that slip into my mouth don’t make it onto the calorie counter.
Publicly declaring my intentions here – keep accurate track! And when you do, Isn’t the morning after a fast day a great wake up? I do feel sooooo virtuous.
