I've started using a weight tracker on my iphone but if my weight creeps up I'll just do a full 5:2 week to get it down again. Once you are used to fast days they are so easy to do and this WOE has made it really easy to control my weight. I still eat and drink everything I want to (I'm lucky in that I've never eaten or craved junk food) and a BMI of around 19 - 19.5 is perfect for me. Below 19 and I'm too thin. This week I had a Twitter conversation with Mimi Spencer who confirmed the same. She originally went down to a BMI of 18.5 on the fast diet and is now maintaining with 6:1 and occasional 5:2 to keep to a BMI of 19.5 - 20.
When you are 45+ too thin isn't pretty!
