    Don't focus on losing weight as quickly as possible. Focus on losing it in a safe and healthy way.

    Why do you need to lose 8 lbs quickly?

    Have you entered your information into MFP to calculate your calorie goals?

    Cut off a limb...

    But in all seriousness, safe weight loss for the amount of weight you have to lose is going to be at a rate of about .5 - 1 Lb per week at the most.

    I’ve been trying to keep to around 800 calories and done it for two weeks. I’ve lost weight but it’s now just stopped. Not sure what to do to make my body start losing the weight again!

    Stop expecting to lose weight every week, or every day, or every hour (since you've been doing this for two weeks and have lost some weight, the "just stopped" period is clearly too short to be a matter of concern.

    Also, eat more. 800 calories is too little unless you are doing it under a doctor's care.

    I’m using the “The fast 800 recipe book “ you can eat the 800 calories a day for up to 4 weeks then do the 5 2 diet.

    Eating only 800 calories a day is really unhealthy, and might be the reason that you aren't seeing results.

    How long did it take you to gain your first st and 8 lb? At least the same time to lose it again, possibly a little bit longer.
