NOT IDEAL to eat 800 calories a day. This is FORBIDDEN on this site due to issues of encouraging eating disorders.

Save yourself the trouble. Don't bother with it. And don't diet. REDUCE the amount of calories you eat in a day eating the food YOU LIKE to eat on a daily basis. That's how you learn a LIFESTYLE and not some fad diet that will give you temporary results. It's a behavioral change you have to do, not a diet change.

The 800 Fast will not last. It's used as a means of overcompensation but it doesn't teach you how to move away from eating behaviors that caused all of the problems in the first place. Kick all of the crash dieting to the curb.

Start tracking your data points one meal at a time. On a one day at a time basis you can move further away from dieting dogma and mind warp that only digs you into a much deeper hole with food.

It's aimed at Type2 diabetics to rapidly drop their weight and their blood sugar levels. Despite being touted in UK newspapers, it should really only be followed, under medical supervision, by those that need to do something drastic relating to their diabetes.

If your GP hasn't told you to follow this programme, don't. You'd be far better off entering your stats to the MFP Guided Set-up screen and eating the number of cals indicated (plus your exercise cals). That way you will lose at a sustainable rate, whilst learning what portion sizes work for you, so that you lose weight and can keep it off long term.

I'm a Type2 diabetic and I wouldn't follow the Fast 800. I reversed the diagnosis by losing 19kg just by eating smaller portions of my 'normal' foods such that my calorie intake was at a small deficit. I'm now in maintenance and my blood sugar numbers are back to normal readings. I eat the same foods as before, just in smaller portions. No deprivation, no drastic changes, no cutting out of food groups and no need for fad diets.
