5:2 Diet (part II)

Well, I reached my first mini target of losing 10 lbs by my birthday and in fact went one better and lost 11 lbs
Went to London to see DS and his GF on Saturday, then birthday treat to see Laurence Fox (yum!) in Strangers on a Train :j
Had a nice meal both Saturday and Sunday including wine and a slice of cake made by DS's GF, but despite missing a fast day on Sunday I haven't gained any weight yet
Next mini targets are to lose a further 5 lbs by mid April - based on current weight loss that should be easy peasy - then a further 7 lbs by end of May at which point I'm going to reassess the situation......my original plan was to then lose another 7 lbs but I think that may be a step too far as DH says he doesn't want me to be too skinny, lol :rotfl:Mortgage-free for fourteen years!

That's great Phoebe - how long did it take to lost the 11lbs?
I had another fast day today - really easy as we had a very late dinner yesterday. I'm finding the fast days are becoming much easier. I find it easier to resist snacking in the evening also - which has been my biggest downfall all along.
Onward and upward, poached monktail and steamed veg today finished with a tbsp of toasted sesame oil; thin tomato soup for supper.I'm an adult and I can eat whatever I want whenever I want and I wish someone would take this power from me.

Today is a fast day for me. I have a quinoa salad for lunch and eggs of some sort later.

Nearly six weeks in, my waiste is shrinking a steady half an inch a week but scales are only going down 1 1/2 lb a week at most. Seems strange.
Cardio: my sympathies. I am on a fast today and have had a rough day. I fancy unhealthy food right now.“The ideas of debtor and creditor as to what constitutes a good time never coincide.”

I'm fasting today too. Nothing but a couple of coffees so far, but I'll have my "main" meal in a couple of hours.Do you not know that a man is not dead while his name is still spoken?
