The FastDay Forum

I've just bought February's Sainsbury's Magazine and found it has lots about 5:2 in it.I've only glanced at it but it all seems pretty positive. As a bonus the Magazine is only £1 this month.

Hi, I was quite excited when I got my copy home. However I got bored reading the article. It was good in as much that it was a positive, but why did they pick four people who all ate 3 meals and snacks? The guy used it as a quick fix diet and there in lies the problem, 5:2 now appears to be being marketed as a diet, not a woe/wol.
The recipies all seemed quite tasty but were all pasta, rice based! Not something I or I would assume ( due to the popularity of the low carb thread) a large number of 5:2ers are after.
Still can't grumble at the price

I've just read it too. A very balanced piece, in my opinion, and some lovely fast day recipe ideas to try.
