I'm on week 3, so today is my 6th fast. I've lost 3 pounds so far. Excited to weigh in tomorrow
Fast days aren't fun, but not being overly concerned with calories 5 days a week makes up for it!0 -
Idk if this is relevant or not, but i'm on my 2nd week of JUDDD. It's similar to 5:2 but you alternate fasting days with high calorie days. So far so good- I've lost 2 lbs. I haven't lost 1 lb/week since the beginning of my weight loss journey so this is great for me. only 8 more lbs to go!0

I am also on 5:2. Fasting on Mondays and Thursdays and today and my third fast day. It's definitely easier with every fast day and generally easier than I thought it would be. It's kind of liberating to know that tomorrow you can eat whatever you like!0

Hi Getrealforme,
I eat between 1900 and 2000 calories each day Sunday to Thursday and have done so for 22 weeks. For the first twelve weeks, I ate 1000 calories on Friday and Saturday and now eat 500 calories on the Saturday - last week is the first week that I haven't lost any weight and it was the first time that I ate 500 calories on two days so I am going back to 1000/500 to see what happens0 -

Third fast completed last night on the 5:2 and Ive lost 2.86 pounds(1.3 kilos) have been working out and not over eating on feast days
Very surprised how Ive survived on 500 calories twice a week! Although I went over by about 15 cals yesterday but its not the end of the world0 -

I love 5:2!!! I also combine it with 16/8 and low-carb it.0

Do you eat back your exercise calories on fast days?
I suppose I d since I allow about 1,000 calories on fast days. I didn't need to lose a lot or lose it fast, though.0 -
Do you eat back your exercise calories on fast days?
I dont and I have seen members here post that they dont either. I just have 500 calories 520 max0 -
Congratulations. You are doing it. I want to start the diet myself, especially now that I've given up cigaretts. I need to eat right and exercise. Can you email me the diet or provide the source where I can get it. Thanks.0

Congrats to everyone!! I'm at the 3rd week 6th fast day and I'm down in pounds. I really like the this plan and way of life. I find it so much easier than other diets I've tried. My hubby has been very supportive. He also is on the diet and is shedding pounds. How much weight has everyone lost in their first month.:flowerforyou:

How do you save the fast days in the app to be included in weekly reports? It gives me "consumed too less calories add meal" error. I want to be able to track my fast and feast days in the app.0

I'm really intrigued by this diet and am thinking about trying it. Could someone describe to me what they normally eat on a fast day please?0

Many people just have a normal-ish dinner in the evening of the fast day.0 -
occasionally, I don't enjoy my two fasting days (Fri/Sat) because of the lack of food, but the scales on Sunday always make me happy so that makes me persevere, and I eat well on the other 5.0
