    ✅ Water: 225.8 oz.

    🗣Comments/Goals: Tough week of fasting and a small loss---bt I'm certain I would have gained at least a few pounds from last weekend otherwise, at least going in the right direction. Tomorrow is date night, so a little bit of cheats for dinner at a magic show with apps and drinks.

    💬Comments: I’m thinking about starting 5:2 IF. I was clueless about it until I read up on it last night (You’d think I’ve been living in a cave lol). I’ll probably start on Sunday and see how it goes. I’ve only got around 7lbs left to lose so maybe it’ll give me a little boost.

    I think you're a great position to start 5:2 (as your diet is already so controlled)--- you may want to try it 6:1 the first week and then 5:2 thereafter ...that's how I get back to it after a breakaway. When I stick to it precisely, it works well. Problem is, I eat too heavy these past weekends... I'm trying to get my weekends under control again 😓

    Thanks for the tip Nancy, I will try 6:1 for the first week as I think it’ll ease me into it, and then switch to 5:2 after that. I know you’ll get your weekends under control again, you can do it 👌 If you don’t mind me asking, what sort of weight loss did you see when you started IF? Was there much of a difference compared to what you were losing prior to starting IF? I’ve got a feeling these last 7lbs or so are going to be a bit stubborn, so I was thinking that 5:2 might just give them a nudge 😊

    Forgot to weigh this morning. After a day of great food yesterday and a luncheon today I’m up. No more food events and things should calm down drastically so I’m looking forward now!

    @DeshotelK You'll get back into it, you got this!!

    @o0kody0o Intermittent fasting has a loooot of benefits but can be tough to get into at first, if you have trouble jumping right into it, you can shave off time out of your eating window slowly and ease into it...

    @SLIMn2016 A loss is still a loss.....you're doing great!

    @grizziegriz Hang in there, maybe it's time to change things up and see what happens?! Sometimes changing your routine helps.

    @melodyis4reals We have all been where you are. My best advice is to track track track, and when things aren't going as planned, you have something to go back and look at to see what you can adjust to try to get things moving again. But it's really hard to know what you need to adjust when you don't really know what you've been doing...and the daily posts are really centered around helping to create a healthy habit and get you thinking about your daily routine. Hang in there, take it a little at a time. Track, and when weigh in day comes, then you see if you feel that you're on the right track or if you need to make adjustments. You got this! We're all in this together!

    @digger61 Another great day!!

    @batgirl140 A small drop is still better than no drop, you're still chipping away at it, keep it up!!

    @vicky2767 Great job, a loss is still a loss and hope you have a great weekend!

    @OkieGina You're doing great, keep up the great work!

    @CourtneyLomonaco I think that happens to us all, the important thing is to move forward, you can do this, you can take back control, you GOT this!

    @tdrjustus3 You're chipping away at it!! Keep it up!

    @Bm00re2u I'm sure you're still getting a lot of activity in, I bet you can't wait to get into your new house!!

    @tinak33 100 squats isn't nothing! You're doing a great job!

    @gjaholy33 Great exercise!! You're doing great at getting back into it after having such a tough time with pain.
