Started fasting this week, bought the book, read it (for once!) Have tried Weight Watchers and put weight on, tried Slimming World but I don't have time to attend classes and object to paying to be weighed. I have completed my second ever fast day and have to say that I am amazed at how easy it has been, despite the cold weather. We are a family obsessed with food so I have made a couple of dishes out of the 'Jacqueline Whitehart 5:2 Diet Recipe Book' and have not really felt hungry ( I am doing 3 small meals a day as I can't survive without eating regularly - it feels too much like deprivation). Miso soup has been very helpful (40 kcals) as have Muller fat free Greek yoghurts (83kcals). I want to lose at least 10 lbs and wear the 70% of clothes I have in my wardrobe which I have not worn for at least 2 years. Here's hoping!!!

Hi All
Day 2 back on fasting and its gone really well. Monday was my first day (had a break for 4 weeks due to Labyrinthitis)
Anyway I lasted till 2 with a big coffee, then just had a Tesco light Choices noodle cup a soup thing for 50 cals. Lots of tea then for tea I had 400 cals left so had a baked potato, light phili tub and lots of salad and steamed veg. That felt better than using more points up at lunchtime. i had a stonker of a headache on monday night but better tonight so think I might go for the eating later thing again next week - just wondered when you all weigh yourselves? i was thinking after tomorrow when I've finished fasting but before I probably put it on again over the weekend. what do you recommend?

It doesn't matter so long as you are consistent. I add notes to say if after a fast day etc.
Thanks BBT - was planning once a week so will go for after day 2 and see how it works
