I've started the 5-2 diet and have lost 12lbs in the last 2 weeks so moving in the right direction. I will be starting on a weight loss program when they send for me, so wish me luck.

Hi brads27 and welcome back to the forum. Well done on your loss so far but be careful you don't lose too quickly. A steady loss of 1-2lb a week is much more sustainable :-)

A few things have changed since you were last here. Both the Weigh In and Daily Diary now run weekly with a new post starting on a wednesday evening. These can both be found in our Pinned Posts, here's a link healthunlocked.com/weight-l...

We advise everyone to at least join in with both of these to get the bet support and advise and to keep us all accountable.

There are other pinned posts that may be of interest so take a look down the list and join in with any that take your fancy.

Good luck with the rest of your journey and i hope we can help you on your way xx

Hi Brads. That’s a very fast weight loss! I hope you are getting the nutrients your body needs. How much are you planning to lose in total?

I'm around 21 stone, but would be very happy to be around 17 stone.I gained a stone on holiday so usually lose a lot the first week back then go to lose 1 or 2lbs per week after that.

Thanks for explaining. Holidays can be tricky! Your normal loss sounds much healthier. Good luck 🤞
