I'm a vegetarian and new to the 5:2 Fast Diet. I've never heard of it, but it sounds doable. How does it work for us? Thanks

There was a BBC Horizons documentary on that explained the diet, not sure if it is available on their website yet. http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01lxyzc
Dr. Mosley wrote a book: http://www.amazon.com/FastDiet-Weight-Healthy-Intermittent-Fasting/dp/1476734941/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1366300074&sr=1-1&keywords=michael+mosley
There is a facebook page https://www.facebook.com/WWF52Diet
Also here is an easy intro page http://www.52fastdiet.co.uk/what_is_the_5-2_fast_diet.php
Hope that helps!0 -
The documentary is online on multiple sites. I watched it here: http://video.pbs.org/video/2363162206/
If that doesn't work for you, just type in "eat fast and live longer" into a Google video search. There are copies on sites like VIMEO and Dailymotion that you may be able to access if my PBS link doesn't work.0 -
Here is another link that may be of interest. It is by Dr. Mosley talking about the documentary.
