Can an overweight old man who eats too much between meals, has no willpower and does not get enough exercise, join? |

Although I'm out for lunch two or three times a week, because it's warmer I'm eating more meals with salad and out walking more, so I'm where I want to be, a couple more pounds would be a bonus, but I'm not precious about weight, I'm just happy my size 12's fit without feeling the need to undo a button after I've eaten. |

Still carrying my Christmas 5lbs around. I can't seem to get motivated. Everyone seems to go for meals here when they meet up in the UK we met for coffee, much better idea and cheaper too. Need to restart the 5-2, or 4-3, as I know it works. I have family arriving three weeks today and so more eating out. |

Wendy I have tried numerous diets over the years, the 5-2 diet has been the best and easiest one for me. I am 1lb under my WW gold weight. Good luck with your diet just keep trying. |

Hi Paula, as yesterday was my birthday and I hit the big ?0 :-D. I decided it was time to stop moaning about this five pounds and get on with losing. So starting today, yesterday would have been an impossibility, I'm back on the 5-2. |

I may just have to resurrect this thread. My visitors went home today and during their two week stay I gained 6lbs. I dread to think how much they put on as my eating was quite restrained compared to theirs. :-0 |

So have I RB but I take a tablet every day to counteract this. Both Paula and myself like the 5-2 diet and others have had brilliant successes with other methods. The 5-2 suit my lifestyle. Google it for more info but basically it is two days a week of your choice on 500/600 calories a day depending if you are male or female and the other five days you just eat sensibly. I shall be back on it tomorrow . |

Went back on the 5-2 diet last Tuesday. Weighed this morning and I've lost 2lbs. I'm hoping that it goes nearly as quickly as it arrived! |
