I feel like I'm still over-eating on non fast days.....so am debating on fasting an extra day next week, so Sunday, Tuesday & Thursday fasts. I don't know if that would be easier for me than just watching what I eat on non fast days or not.... I just love being able to eat as much as I want on non fast days, and save all my willpower for the fasts! I've tried to restrict overall calories every day on various diets in the past and always eventually gave up as it was jut too restrictive.
Another fast day bites the dust! Hard to believe this is already week 6 and I haven't messed up a single fast day. That's 12 successful fasts done! Fingers crossed the scales are good to me next week. Even if it just shows a tiny loss I should still be happy, considering how much I've been enjoying non fast days!
You still going Heather? Oh wait.... Bet you're on holiday!

Gonna fast today wish me luck!So I have done slimming world for a year and a half and lost almost 4 stone however the past few months I have struggled to stay on track and find myself losing weight then putting it back on a few weeks later and I am now getting disheartened so thought I would try the 5:2 diet to give me a boost to get the last bit of weight off. Have people had a lot of success with this? Any recipes or food ideas would be a great help

Welcome! I don't know how much I've lost in total as I haven't weighed myself for a while. After five weeks I'd lost 5 pounds, so about a pound per week for me. My clothes definitely feel looser and my overall energy levels are higher. I think the fasts are much tougher when you first start, but they def get easier!
I done my first fast day today and I planned my breakfast, lunch and dinner so I hadn't felt hungry. However after using all my calories on my three meals I have been hungry since about an hour after my dinner and miss being able to have a snack at night. Fingers crossed this gets easier. Do you still eat healthily on your normal days or do you eat whatever you want? Does it effect weight loss?
Congrats on your first fast!! I haven't been watching what I eat on non fast days. After seven weeks of fasting, I have noticed that I get full quicker on non fast days, which is great!
