    Maintaining after 5:2 diet

    Hi After doing the 5:2 diet since August I am now at my target weight. But I don't want the weight to creep back on. I just wanted advice on how to maintain my weight loss. Do people just fast 1 day in 6 or 3 days in 14 for example? Any advice would be greatly appreciated
