Drink if you're thirsty or your urine is dark yellow, otherwise you'll be OK. It doesn't have to be pure water either - any drink except alcoholic ones will do the trick.

Raspberry ketones have been extensively discussed here and the vast majority think they are non-effective and a waste of money.

Can I count it towards my 8 glasses a day?

I also highly recommend the BBC programme as it gives background to the 5:2 diet as well as Alternative day fasting, mainly with an emphasis of improving health and lifespan, but with the added benefit of significant weight loss.

^^this. If you are having to force yourself to drink water then you probably don't need it. Unless your urine is a dark yellow you are probably OK. Additionally, your body absorbs water from food that you ingest.

This was in the news a few days ago..... "Walking, running produce similar improvements in heart health" http://www.healio.com/cardiology/chd-prevention/news/online/%7BD2A46213-3F66-4FBE-BE11-D66B4D31526A%7D/Walking-running-produce-similar-improvements-in-heart-health

Well done that man! Congratulations Sir - very inspirational!

NSV = non-scale victory

I agree

Norovirus is ghastly. I've only had it once I think and I ended up on the toilet with a bucket on my lap evacuating both ends simultaneously. Horrible, horrible horrible!

Pass - too young, sorry

Congratulations Sir! Well done that man!

The website does have some suggested meal plans and shopping lists as a pdf https://www.livebelowtheline.com/system/resources/BAhbBlsHOgZmSSItMjAxMi8wMy8wMi8xMC8xMC8xMi84MzcvUmVjaXBlX0d1aWRlLnBkZgY6BkVU/Recipe%20Guide.pdf

I'm shocked that you're shocked!

I've always found the older ladies are the sexiest! :)

yes

With the 5:2 fasting method, on your fasting days you can indeed have 500 kcals (women) or 600 (men).

Seriously impressive - well done that man!

What's the rationale behind this red vegetable diet?

Very inspirational!!! (if not too personal a question, did you end with any loose skin?)

No! Only water soluble substances!
