    Weight loss is calories in vs out. Meal timing and what you eat are both irrelevent as long as you eat enough at a deficit and get all your macros in.

    The way you choose to eat is all up to you

    Have a search in Groups - I know there is at least one group dedicated to the 5:2 plan where you'll find lots of people following that regimen.

    If this was true, I would weigh far less than I weigh now. There's more to it than calories in/out, at least for some people.

    I would suggest you get support here not dieting advice. IF works great for some people others not so much. Basically whatever diet users here are on they think its the best thing ever and anything else is craziness followed by 30 responses supporting or denying it.

    I found this didn't work for me. I got so hungry on the fast days that I just lost control and overate. I also tried the intermittent fasting doing 10 hours on/14 hours off. Didn't work for the same reason. It kind of derailed my whole plan.

    I'm sure you'll find lots of information in the 5:2 group. Good luck to you!

    I do know of someone who is not on MFP, but does the 5:2 plan BUT not 2 low cal days in a row, say do Monday and Thursday, etc. Has worked for her.
