  • Wow excellent well done! I'm in the early days and finding fast days tough at lunchtime. I guess you just have to adapt. I fasted one day went to the gym and put weight on so its made me sceptical. Thats amazing what you've achieved, I'm really impressed. X
  • I have just started today! Am really hoping that I can make it work around kids/hectic family life :)

    I lost 63 lbs in 2013. I added some exercise in at the start of 2014 and quit fasting - I have since put 53 lbs back on. I am starting 5:2 again today and have only eaten 471 calories in total.

    I do alternate day fasting. The weight loss doing 5:2 was too slow for me. I'm very impatient lol
