How do you feel about intermittent fasting? +friends

Perhaps I should modify this:

It's not a 5:2 I kind of understand 5:2 ( I'm not really looking for a 5:2 diet plan)
I'd eat regularly 1200-1500 calories 4 days a week and about 700 (not including exercise) 3 days a week


For me:

This would include no weight lifting.

Just my usual 15-20 min cardio (jog froward and walk backward)
15 abdominals (2x)
15 tranversus abd. (2x)
25 butt/leg lifts (2x)
And then some stretching to cool down

I would eat between 7am-3pm every everyday (about 200 calories for each meal I eat, that's between 3-4) and then fast for 16 hours
The work out would take place between 2:30pm-4 pm

And I'm not saying that I'd do this until I reach my goal. Just whenever I feel comfortable with it. For example a week out of every month. I'd never push myself to far to the point of exhaustion.( If I needed to make it 2 days vs. 3 I would) I have to be able to function for work and college classes. I'm sorry if some of you got the wrong picture.

I do appreciate your guys' feed back.

If you could modify this ^ to fit your diet how would you? Would you up your calories on low days? Do a shorter fasting period?

If I could help u modify ur plan it would go like this...

Read the book
Watch the documentary
Eat 500 cals on non consecutive days for 2 x days per week
Eat maintenance on the other 5 x days per week
Workout as u wish

It's pretty simple, don't over complicate the fasting as u won't get the other health benefits, IF is way more than about weight loss.

I'm not looking to be bashed on.
I appreciate your advice. And Susan's and Andy's and Primrose for sticking up for what she believes in. If you say 500 calories on nonconsecutive days I'll take it into consideration and perhaps lengthen my time frame. I'm brainstorming and reaching out to try something new.

--And for the person who commented about lean muscle. I like to do strength training and weight lifting 1-2 weeks out of every month alternatively on week days (mon-wed-fri)

Like I said it's not a definite set in stone plan. It's an Idea.

I have my plan figured out with someone else who does intermittent fasting

4:3
4 days eat 2000-2400 cal
3 days 500 calories in the 8 hour time frame I set.

My short little exercise throughout the week.

I'd do this 1 week out of every month.

Then go back to my regular 1200-1500 cal diet and regular work out with weight lifting and more strength training.

And I'm not looking to lose 74 lbs in 4 months does anyone know how to change the ticker thing?
