I’m in a plateau period myself. Was losing 1 sometimes 2 pounds a week. Last two weeks….nada. However, even though the scales aren’t budging, the way my clothes are fitting (well, sagging actually) are indicating that my body is continuing to change. In fact, I was doing my annual closet weeding getting rid of what I don’t wear or haven’t worn in a long time. I’m a jean freak and have far too many pairs, but to my delight the jeans that were at the back of the closet because they were too tight and uncomfortable now fit!!! And some are even loose!!!! So, these are being moved to the front of the closet. 🙂

I’ve been doing 5:2 for 12 weeks and have lost 20 pounds. I have 15 to go to reach my target weight, but this plateau isn’t worrying me. One thing you might try is make one of your fast days strictly liquid. I actually do both of mine liquid only. In the morning, I fill a liter bottle with water and juice of one lemon. Sip on that until it’s gone. Re-fill it again with water and lemon. When that’s gone, I switch it to green tea. If by evening I’m feeling a bit weak, I have a large mug of hot green tea with a tablespoon or two of quality honey. I also sometimes use Bragg’s vinegar in place of the lemon in the water. Oddly, the vinegar seems to squelch the the hunger pangs for me.

Anyway, don’t get discouraged!
