Hi Newme1970 well done you in 2015 I had a large operation and afterwards put on 2 stone I felt really miserable I worked in an office so didn’t move much which didn’t help with the weight gain. I went on my own version of 5:2 as not good at dieting I had porridge every morning homemade soup for lunch and whatever was going for dinner 5 days a week and then Saturday and Sunday I ate whatever I fancied ( cutting out bread made a real difference). Now I am doing the c25k which is getting me fit and changing my body shape, I’m now 9stone and feel great. Keep it up and remember to drink lots of water. Good luck x
