Well this is my storey. Six weeks ago I weighed 18 stone, the heaviest I have been in my life, so having come off holiday I decided to give dieting a go to lose some weight now I am 40.
A little bit of googling and I came across the fast diet. I searched the engine and found a story I liked, so I adapted my diet to this guys 5:2 plan.
For me on the fast days which was mon and fri it started out with a stick of celery for breakfast, a carrot for lunch and a weight watchers ready meal for tea ++++++++pints and pints of water. I cut out all my coffees, probably 12 cups,a day and limited this to one as a treat at around 11am.
I took myself off for a walk on a lunch time and walked around 3,700 steps per day every day.
On the other consecutive days I continued to have the stick of celery for breakfast, carrot for lunch but ensured I had a full tea at night for the consecutive 5 days. This could either be spagetti bolognise, chilli con carne or anything else you fancy. Just make sure you have it at 6pm to fill your appetite.
Then if I felt Hungary, it would be a glass of water and then bed. If your asleep you ain't going to be Hungary.
I weighed myself every day and have continued to lose pound after pound. I also went on holiday, weighed myself before the break at 16:4, came back and i,was 16:10.
I was determined not to,let it go so I back on the fast diet from the 5 day break and lost the 6lbs I had gained.
I weighed myself today and managed to break the 15's weighing in at 15:13.
This diet really does work and I can't believe how good it is.
