August 7, 201312 yr We have 19 people in our group, but we don't have 19 posting. We need to update whether everyone is actually eating the 5:2 way. I think I have lost 11 lbs since starting. I have to weigh cause I fasted yesterday and see if I kept it off today.
August 7, 201312 yr I glad you brought this up daisy! We had discussed capping the group at 20. It would be nice to hear from everyone. And if someone is not following the 5:2 and not posting we can free up the space for someone new? Oh 11 pounds here too!
August 7, 201312 yr I'm trying to follow. 15 July start, 3lb loss so far. I don't post in the group as much as others but I am here.
August 7, 201312 yr I'm still here...doing 5:2 since mid-June, still in my original bounce range of 70-72kg LOL. Alas, I'm still going!!
August 7, 201312 yr Author If you don't post a lot, that's fine. We just want to me sure everyone listed is eating the 5:2 way. If someone doesn't respond, Laura , can you pm them? If you don't want to post your loss, hopefully no gains, just let us know how fasting is going for you.

But noting yet from them? I asked to have new members post in the introductions area to introduce themselves.
August 7, 201312 yr Hi, my name is Georgia, and I am a 5:2 enthusiast. On vacay right and I hope I still have 22 pounds lost when I get back ( or I WILL have by the end of the week I get back anyway!). Started 5:2 about June 5th I believe.
August 8, 201312 yr Still here too! Still plodding along fasting Mondays and Thursdays! Started June 19th, down about 5 lbs.
August 9, 201312 yr Present and accounted for! Started July 16th and at the 3 week mark I was down -9lbs.

August 10, 201312 yr Still here, not using 5:2 on vacay, but CANT WAIT to get back to it on the 17th. I am seeing the scale go up and up... am still logging everything on MFP,and eating around 3-500 cals extra a day... so the pounds are prob at least half Water. Going to do lots of hiking in the next three days, so perhaps that will help a bit. Weight lost before vacay- from June 11th- 11 pounds
August 10, 201312 yr I'm here! I've been doing 5:2 since on/around 23 June and am down 7 pounds from that time. At one point, I was down 8 but have been stuck between 7-8 pounds down total for the past three weeks. I have seen lower numbers but keep bouncing back up into this range, which is clearly a happy weight for my stubborn body. Seven more to go to be at my original goal of 135 pounds (which, sadly, is still top end of the stupid BMI for me...) and hoping I'll make it there by my birthday in November. And FYE, M2G and Supersweetums all look fabulous in your new photos! ~Cheri
