Hello Marco and welcome. Good luck with your fasts. Do let us know how you get on

Good luck Marco!

Welcome Marco! How did you hear about 5:2? Has the news "hit" Italy?
The best of luck to you!

thanks to all. coffecat: I think I've heard about it from uk newspapers sites. Am I the only one from Italy here???

Hi Marco

I'm sure there's at least one other member here who's in Italy, maybe two. Hopefully they'll say hello when they spot your thread!

Meanwhile we're all friendly here and many of us (well me anyway) very keen on Italian food (hence the weight problem...too much pasta )!

Welcome Marco from an Australian faster.
Great to have such an interesting group to chat with.
Good luck with your new way of eating

Hi Marco,

I am in Italy but not Italian. I live in Le Marche. Where do you live?

Have told all my italians friends about the diet. They are very interested.

Good luck with it all . It has turned out to be quite easy even with all that lovely italian food

Welcome, Marco! Please tell me what 'milk flakes' are? I have never heard of them! Don't forget that you can have up to 600 calories on your 'fast'days, so plenty of opportunity to have a 'proper' meal. Good luck with your new WOE (Way Of Eating.

Buongiorno Marco! Glad you are doing well on 5:2. It's great that you're finding it easy so far. If you do get hungry make sure you eat your 600 cals on your fast day. May as well make the most of the calories you're allowed!

Welcome, 5:2 is manageable anywhere. I live in the land of cheese and wine but can do my fasts ok! Lots of help and support on here.
