The Five 2 Diet Approach

So for 6 weeks I have followed the 5:2 eating plan to kick start my plan to lose weight and for healthier living. I lost 1 stone and close to a couple of inches from my waist. I joined this app and community to carry on my journey and lose another stone whilst gaining lean muscle. I'll still do the 5:2 thing but only one day a week (6:1). For those unfamiliar this means restricting calorie intake to 600 for the day. This app fails to recognise it when I input it in my diary but it has worked for me as well as bringing other benefits: self control, discipline, focus. I'm interested if others have experiences of other 'radical' type approaches?

    Intermittent fasting is my favorite tool for cutting fat, I fast daily 16/8 and one day a week i do a 24-hour fast (from dinner to dinner). I love it...

    I do juddd which is alternate day or in my case 3:4. Works for me. Have lost 6kg and found it easy to get back into the swing of it after having a week of maintenance after an op.
