The 5:2 diet

Anyone want to try it with me?

Info - Link (roll over me to see where I go)

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.

Oh and I drink lots of black coffee, a couple of herbal teas, squash and lots of water, to take my mind off the whole not eating thing.

I find it easiest to have nothing until lunch, then have quite a large salad, about 400 calories' worth, so lots of leaves and green bits plus some protein, then I have a Glorious skinny soup (there's various varieties, all lovely, all around 100 cals for a half a pot) Lots of water and a diet coke for a treat in the morning when my tum is rumbling :-)

A mate of mine has just gone on 5:2 with his good lady. His wife is severely restricting down to 500 calories a day, but he's only dropped down to about 900/1000. He's finding it easy and is losing weight. She's struggling.
