I did the fast 800 for a month, as I only have a couple of stone to lose and do not have diabetes/pre diabetes. I lost a stone and felt so good, planning to losing 1-2 pounds a week doing 5:2 and exercising lots to lose the final stone. Well it’s been 4 days since I finished and I’ve not had any huge binges or anything but I am finding it hard to resist snacking on crackers in the evening/picking at food more. Today was meant to be one of my 2 800cal days. I kept to it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. But got a hot chocolate from a machine at lunch (probably super sugary) and haven’t been able to resist a few cream crackers this evening 🤦♀️
I feel like I do really well when I’m on a strict plan but as soon as I go back to being more ‘relaxed’ I can’t do it! I feel like I’ve gained weigh already! It is my time of the month so could this be affecting things? I really don’t want to gain the weight back and I really want to get another stone off, I’m just struggling to be positive about it. Any advice would be very much appreciated
