I started the 5:2 last week after reading Michael Mosley's book Eat, Fast and Live longer.
My first fast day was hard, snacked on yoghurt and fruit until I reached 500. The next fast day was easier with two small meals at lunch and dinner. Then this week on Monday i went through until 8pm and had the whole 500 calories - this suits me much better plus I fasted for 24 hours. I then randomly decides to fast Tuesday too which I managed but will do non consecutive days in future. So far I've lost 6lbs and have finally found a diet which works for me!
