Our Frequently Asked Questions topic will answer many of your fasting & weight loss questions!

If you're new and have a question or need some advice, please give us as much information as you can about your situation in order for us to be able to help you as best we can. For example, it's helpful to know your BMI/weight, how much you want to lose, any medical conditions which might affect your weight and (if you've started fasting already) how you do your fasts in terms of splitting up your calories, what you eat etc. Thanks!

Hello

I am new to the forum and would like to introduce myself.

My name is Tracy and I have been doing the 5:2 for two weeks Im finding it ok just need to now find a few more low cal dinner ideas, I prefer to skip breakfast have a light lunch then a more hearty dinner.

My concern is that I am really hungry on feeding days so am worried that I am undoing all my hard work on fast days, does anyone else feel like this?

Hi Tracy

I felt the same for many weeks but last week I discovered that I felt much better if I had a smaller breakfast on feed days! I know it doesn't seem to make sense, but I think perhaps my brain was not interpreting the feelings from my stomach properly and it was a stretched feeling from eating too much, not hunger!
