5:2

[maz71 v]

Any one tried it???

 

[ClaireMarie]

Yep.

I enjoyed it, I did it before my bypass though. I actually felt better on the fasting days than the normal days. More in control. I lost on average two lbs a week (a pound for each fast day)

Thanks Hun.. Wondering if to give a go to keep the mojo going x

 

[ClaireMarie]

Don't see why not, I'm just three months out so still losing quite fast but I will do it when my weight loss slows down, with less appetite it can only be easier I should think ha.

Hi maz71_v, just wondering if you tried the 5:2 diet and if so how did you find it?

 

[maz71 v]

Hi. Do I didn't x
Been sticking to high rotten. Slow but surely coming off x

I've been doing just one 600 kcals day a week, and it's certainly boosted my loss abit. I'm nearly a year out though.

Does it affect your restriction Fiona?

Does it affect your restriction Fiona?

I haven't noticed any real difference. Bizarrely though it seems to keep my appetite at bay.

My mum hasn't had wls but she's resorted to the 5:2 diet as nothing else is working for her! She says she finds it great and she doesn't feel hungry on her fast days. She has lost 7lbs in 2 weeks x x x

Hmmm I really think I might give this a go once I get to the right level of restriction - it's got to be easier when you feel fuller... maybe?

 

[WeightlossDreamer]

Yeah I guess so! X x
