I am Stacey and came across the 5 2 diet by complete accident, was youtubing other stuff when i saw a video about the diet and miranda kerr, now i think she's amazing [more so cos she's with orlando bloom, lucky so and so] so i though i'd check it out, hey, who wouldnt want to look like her?!
I was intriqued so have found this forum and now im posting!
As a dieter im a TOTAL yo-yo'er, every year my weight drops like 2 stone by summer and then im back up again come christmas and i am overweight, so its not like im miss slinky in the summer, i have issues with sticking to just "healthy eating" cos i do LOVE food, i could eat all freaking day! haha
But if i do a diet, im like miss focused...for a while haha so the thought of this diet where i can eat what i want for 5 days, but not go silly, well i dont eat fast foods or processed foods anyway and then 2 days where i can be miss focused, sounds pretty like me. I work at a supermarket and so thier food isnt exactly calorie controlled and im not a prepare in advance person, so seeing as i have two days off a week, those would be my fasting days. I've done strict calorie controlled diet before, not to this extreme but within 1,000 calories with some to spare, so it may be hard, but id be willing to give it a go....if people can show me/tell me how well it really works!
Exercise is a pain for me cos i have issues with my feet and i have been swimming, but now works being a pain with my hours im paying for a service i cant use, so im having to stop it for now. Hoping to find something else soon! I have a bike but it needs seeing too and i dont have the money at the moment and i dont really find the joy in riding as much as i do swimming, so why do something i dont enjoy, i wont get the benefit. I dont drive either and no buses after like 7pm to go out or come home.
Yeah anywhos, back to the diet, tell me some good stories, pictures...i dunno anything!
