  • What's a 5:2 diet? Eating five days, fasting two days? That sounds HORRRRRRRIBLE. Do you wanna kill someone on your fast days?

    1550 for 5 days now that I want to lose weight, I'll probably bump it up to 1800/2000 when I get to 62 kg.

    30 day shred is not an ONLY exercise. It's hard work :wink:

    I'm reading through the book at the moment but this week I did no more than 600 on the fast days but have kepted my other days between 1200-1400

    b4 this week I was eating 1200

    Once I have finished the book I will then experiment & see what works best for me tbh

    Good Luck xx
