    Hey just wondering what this diet is??

    2 days at 500 calories.....5 days at maintenance

    Your entire deficit comes from 2 days. Not for everyone.

    What is this? Does it work?
    It is 5 days at 1200 and two fasted days at 500 but you can eat liquid foods or other foods. You can google it too.

    NO!

    This would be the Very Low Calorie (bastardized) version of 5:2

    Started on the diet Thursday - with Friday and this Tuesday (tomorrow) being my fast days. Down 3.2 lbs already but not officially weighing in til Thursday. I can't believe I am actually losing weight eating under 1800 cals! Being used to 1200-1300 cals per day - this makes me feel calorie rich! lol I had chocolate custard with m&ms, oreos, chocolate shavings and chocolate syrup yesterday!
