Hello everyone. I have been on MFP for ages but I am really bad in falling off the wagon or cheeting myself by not logging stuff, hence my results are still not great. I have decided to try and give the 5:2 diet a go. A bit scared to be honest as since I changed my birth control method I feel like a food hoover! Today is my first 500 cal day and so far so good. I am looking for people also doing 5:2 for support. Any takers?????

  • I' struggling with the last 10 pounds. Giving the 5:2 thing a try. Will happily share your journey if you want to add me as a friend.
  • Hey,

    I have lost half a stone through the 5;2 diet, still need to lose another 8 pounds so I am fasting today and tomorrow :) I usually lose a pound per fast day so we still have time to be looking good for Christmas :)

    Hey,
    I've been on here forever and not getting very far.
    This years NY res was to finish the year lighter than before which although i haven't lost much, I'll be able to tick off.
    Next years NY res will be to stick to diet and be a real loser.

    Good luck. How are you finding 5:2?
    Feel free to add me. :smile:

    Also doing the 5:2 diet. week 3 for me and lost 7lbs so far. Find it quite easy to stick to as long as i dont eat until tea, otherwise i find i crave food too much.

    Do you guys stick to the MFP calorie allowance during your non-fasting days? i do, just curious what others do.

    Well I did not last on this diet. I found that I was too hungry on the non fast diet days straight after the fast day. I am too shaky when I am hungry so this is not for me. Good luck to all of you sticking to this diet - I am soooooo jelous!
