Welcome Miss O!
I’m from Ireland’s ‘real capital’ but hope you won’t hold that against me!

I started 5:2 last month and lost 6lb in my first two weeks, so great start, no major hunger pangs or anything. For the last two weeks I’ve been away so keeping a close eye on daily food intake, but not fasting, it’s so much easier to do on a work day. I did manage to weigh myself once and no change thank goodness.
Have to say though that I’m looking forward to getting back on track, and cooking up some tasty soups for evening meal. Porridge tends to work well for breakfast and I have some raisins and almonds to nibble on if the water isn’t enough to keep me full during the day.

Good luck!
Ellie
