The reason being that I am running 5 times a week for a marathon in 6 weeks
I also find that exercising takes my mind of my hunger.

Day 1 (5:2 day)
by jmousey on 17 Sep 2013, 12:38
Hello everyone, I decided to start a blog to keep me focussed and provide inspiration if I become successful. I have been on and off with 5:2. I have had success. I am 5 foot and quite petite. I currently weight 8st 12 and would like to get to 8st 2 or even lower. I have managed to hit 8st4lbs on this diet but fell off the band wagon. I'm just back from 10days hols so right back where I was when I started on this diet. I'm hoping it will come off quickly though.
Primarily I thought I would actually record what I am eating and the exercise I am putting in. My TDEE is 1800 which is quite high. The reason being that I am running 5 times a week for a marathon in 6 weeks. Otherwise my TDEE is a wofal 1400cals pd which is very low. I am sticking to 500 cals twice a week Monday & Wednesdays. Tues, Thurs & Fri I am doing a 16:8 of eating between 12-8pm.
So today is day 1 since hols. I have to say I'm pretty depressed at the thoughts of the day ahead. I have been up since 7am and am freezing. Today due to getting to work late, I am going to have to grab my 500 cals late at work. I am running 6miles around 7pm so need to get my food in before that or else I am eating to late. I have discovered that eating late(after about 630pm for me) creates stodge and stagnation. The only way weight has come off is to not eat anything after 630pm except for 4 boiled sweets!!!. Weird but it works. So today looks like this so far:
7am: coffee with skim milk
8am: coffee with skim milk
1030am: coffee with skim milk
11:30am coffee with skim milk
1pm: bovril
I intend to have another bovril and then Ill go to the shop and buy a salad of some sort with lots of protein. I had intended to have pork chop with some green veg but I won't be home on time to cook it now so salad it is.
Overall so far today I give it a 6/10. While I am not hungry (due to serious bloating), I am depressed and freezing. Hopefully tomorrow will be better on 16:8 especially if the scales has moved
