Hi Sara – join the 5:2 Diet Australia Facebook group – we are all supportive and encouraging of everyone https://www.facebook.com/groups/52DietAustralia/ and there are lots of us from Perth too! I’ve been doing this WOE since March this year, lost 6kgs, been on plateaus for a couple of months, lost lots of centimetres all over and the loss is beginning to show in lose clothes etc. and feeling much better, sleeping better etc. etc. It is manageable and doable, so don’t give up.
