Thread: How are people doing?!

I have bought the book as I am interested in hearing how it works etc!

What is the best thing to eat on the fasting days? And what is everyone's experience at the moment x

Depends on your eating habits some ppl save there cals and have a big meal at night others spread them thru the day, there's a diet section is u want to check it out

I've been doing 5:2 for 2 weeks now, swapped for a time from SW.
First week I had a massive blow out at the weekend with wine and takeaways and only put on 1/2lb.
This week I've been using MFP and sticking to 1200 on up days during the week and being sensible on a weekend (still had Chinese and a glass of wine on Sat) and lost 3.5lb this week.
Loving this diet if I can keep losses like this!

Well done that's a great loss!!

I started this after a blow out few weeks after losing over 100lbs but I had gained 12lbs back so I expected to lose quite quickly, following 5:2 I lost 9lbs in 8 days but I know that was just mainly climbing back on the wagon so this week will be the real result. I am fasting today & again on Saturday although it will normally be Monday & Wednesday just this week was sons birthday yesterday & we are at the coast on Monday & I know I would fail!
