    Hi, I bought the book ages ago and have never read it! However, watched the Horizon documentary today and am now reading the book. Starting today as a fast day, will probably fast again on Wednesday, hopefully this will be the one I can stick to! Would like some UK friends to help me along x

    Hi, I'm up in Scotland doing the 5:2 diet and would love some new MFP friends who are doing this plan too :)

    Just finishing my first week and I'm loving it so far, just would like to up my exercise alongside the plan!

    Hi, I am in London and started 5:2 about a month ago. So far it is going well, and slowly getting used to the fasting days. Would be good to share ideas and strategies with everyone else.

  • Hi All.....sounds good to have a few UK folk. I'm going to start the 5:2 when I'm back at work in the new year and in between now and then its no alcohol, healthy eating and exercise.

    Profile pic is today (29/12) before going for a jog as I decided time to be real about how I look and feel.....hoping to keep updated with during and after transformation :-)

    Happy to add our be added (oh this is also my first ever social network experience :-) )
  • I'm starting 5:2 on 2nd Jan.
