Keep a graph (like on MFP) It really helps to see the overview. I weigh every day, but check the graph and can see what is going on much better, also measure your measurements and body fat if you can now and then, these tell you as much if not more about where you are...

Are you telling me that the dreaded stall can happen while you are on the blessed 5:2!!!? BUMMER!! (Old hippie talk....) I have been lucky so far, but I'm sure its only a matter of time, I had a TON of 2-3-4 week stalls before the 5:2.

Haha! I think that's what imma saying! A good old fashioned stall complete with me having freak outs about it :P

But really my whole weight loss has been a stall with bits coming off here and there...

So don't use me as an example :D

Ha! Me too! I should remember this from my losing days... I've always lost in fits and starts, so I guess this is no exception... Let's see, though. Apart from yesterday's obscene indiscretion with the delicious chocolates (omg were they good...and omg was I sick to my stomach for a couple hours after, also had a cold sweat LOL), I have done fine with fasting and like how it makes me feel. That's good enough for me, and maybe eventually I'll lose a bit...

I don't know how I missed this topic!!!! I started 5:2 sometime in Mid-May... My nutritionist actually is a big supporter of it... She is the one who initially told me about it. My starting weight was about 192lbs... Now I am 175lbs I am doing really great on 5:2 but I also have been doing great with my running as well so I am attributing my success so far with both!!

I used to NEVER give my weight away....My drivers license was such a 50 pound lie! At some point (around surgery time) I just gave it up and started to use the real number. It was pretty freeing.

Feed that was me too! I think my biggest moment for me was taking my husband to my first consult with the surgeon and weighing myself in front of my husband! It was scary but freeing. And a shock to him because, bless him he never saw me "as that big" and thought I didn't need surgery.

It's funny it's almost a NSV... Letting him see, no he knows my number daily and is my biggest cheerleader :)

      I have no clue where to upload this, so I'll put it here. This is pre-op vs the morning of my 6 month appointment! In office I weight 232, that's 88 lbs down since my highest weight, 75 lbs since my surgery weight! I can't believe this jacket fit... I am smaller now than the last time I was this size which the surgeon found really amusing. He's happy with where I am in my weight loss and estimates I'll be around 200 lbs by my 1 year anniversary! My lowest weight as an adult is 195, so that's pretty damn exciting to think I'll be near that at a year. Everything from there will be unknown territory!!

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
