Two Year Anniversary Coming Up - Not @ goal and its All my own fault

[Pagie 64]

congrats ashleyxx.

I have abt 10-15 lbs. of regain which leaves me with 75 lbs to loose.

I plan to try the 5:2 plan to regain control and squash the carb cravings.

Thanks guys, a lot of times it gets me down thinking I have still a lot to lose. I will honestly say I think it's harder now then when we were newly sleeved since we can eat more, and the "honey moon phase" is over. I wish all that are struggling the best of luck.

I am a year out ...lost 102pounds...need to lose atleast another 60pounds to be at goal...

It used to upset me that most of my co sleevers are at goal and in maintainence already...but 102 is hugeeee just 60 more to go...so instead of sulking i am hopping right on the 5.2 bandwagon!!!

P.S i do track my intake on mfp and most annoying thing is i really workout hard but d scale refuses to budge... my mfp id is kumarshweta... Cheers n goodluck to every1 :)

Go, Girl! You can do it!

All of you can. 5:2 will give you structure again and help you feel a sense of purpose. I lost 27 pounds in 3 months of regain and truly feel like I wouldn't have been able to get back on track otherwise.

Good luck ladies! Keep in mind that Georgia is the wonder woman of losing! But others who are super slow and long stall losers (like me) are also losing on the 5:2. If you use it, the weight will come off. Most of us using it do keep the calories down on feast days as well... not to TDEE, so maybe 1100-1600 range for most. It also offers flexibility for celebration for off days, and maintenance. Keep us informed! We can be your cheerleaders if you like.
