Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

You can tell it's a fast day when you can actually smell fish & chips from an internet post :-(

No loss for me this morning but then I hadn't managed my usual routine before weighing in if you get my drift ;-) but considering all the food I had at the weekend I'm still pleased with that , unrealistic to expect to loose every single week

No loss for me again this week , but no gain either so I have to be happy with that.......

Need to work on the 'Move more' side of the equation now and then hopefully I'll see some losses on the scales.....

I've only had one fast day this week, I should have fasted yesterday but I past a kidney stone on Wed night (ooooouch) so I'm feeling sorry for myself and using food for comfort. Two weeks off from Sunday so hitting it hard.

That made me cringe TJ. I've seen people come through A&E when they have had problems with kidney stones. Hope you are feeling much better today.

1/2lb on this week, not too surprised as I've been off work this week. It's a lot less than I normally put on ;-) and I'm still ahead of my 1lb a week schedule :-)

Lost 6lbs since last time I weighed myself at gym, and finally under 11 stone again. Birthday drinks last night though - a LOT of white wine, buffet and cake and feeling pretty crap today! Predict much eating :( Better get some carbs in for Smokies tomorrow though!

Hello guys, my mum needs to shift some weight so I wanted to get her a 5:2 diet book as I think it's easy to slot into ones lifestyle. There seem to be quite a few though. Do any of you have book recommendations?

(i know the concept is straight forward for the experienced but I think my mum would need the sort that has some justification that the concept works, the plan and some example meals).

About This Thread

Anyone want to try it with me?

Info - m.bbc.co.uk

5 days of 'normal' eating and 2 days eating 600 calories (men), 500 calories (women).

Fast days are best not done on consecutive days, unless you have amazing willpower.
