The FastDay Forum

Introduce Yourself!

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!

Hi I'm new to the forum and hoping to find some inspiration to keep on track with the 5:2 diet
I started 3 weeks ago, and lost 3 lb within the first two weeks. Unfortunately last week I gained 2lb! This is probably due to too much alcohol at the weekend .... I did think that over indulging would not matter as it was on non-fast days - but have learned my lesson! I'll have to accept that you can't overindulge on non-fast days. Boo Hoo

Hi shev

Well you can indulge at weekends but you have to be more careful during the week ;-). In any case our weight fluctuates so much from day to day, 2 lb might not mean anything...did you measure your waist too? It's a more reliable guide to progress.
