Just realised that this is the lowest weight I have been this century! LOL.
Recording a spot weight wasn't working on 5:2, too much daily fluctuation, so have now decided to use an average of Sunday's and Monday's weight. Thanks for the idea, Giles! I think that will work.
I have also been trying to work out how long it might take me to reach my eventual goal weight, and I think it's going to be AT LEAST another 30 weeks! It sounds like a long time. But I am feeling very positive about it because I have made good progress in the 13 weeks I've been here already, and can see and feel a lot of differences in myself. It's so nice to see other people on FS progressing in that time, too!
I'm pleased to say I feel a lot more relaxed about the whole weight-loss thing now. When I started, I had intended to do it as a 'diet' just until the end of September, and try to lose as much weight as possible in that time. Now I'm thinking of it as a more long-term activity to lose weight, and an even longer-term prospect to learn to keep it off, which I still think is going to be the hardest part, especially mentally, but also the most important part. I'm so glad I've made those realisations - I think they will make all the difference to my future well-being!
Thanks to all my buddies for encouraging, inspiring and informing me! I'm sure I wouldn't have reached this point without you!
Now looking forward to starting some new challenges I've joined!
