"5:2 has changed my life – not only have I lost 18lbs (and counting) but I feel 18 years younger too .....Fantabsolutelytastic. Suchard007"


Never thought I'd be pleased to be called a loser, thanks Moogie - it means a lot to us

Been on 5:2 for 8 months and gone down 3 sizes. To still be doing this after 8 months - just shows how sustainable this WOE is!

Some great quotes championing the weight loss benefits of 5:2, so I'd like to highlight another benefit instead:

In 13 weeks, 5:2 has transformed my memory, mood and motivation for life. I'm so grateful to have discovered Dr Mosley's system and this amazing forum. redhead - 22lbs lost and 5:2 for life!

Wow Chris7376 that is an amazing loss!! You must feel absolutely fantastic! So good to hear from people who've been doing 5:2 for a good while. The site is newbie weighted (pun intended) at the moment, but as we all progress into long term 5:2ers I think we'll become a force to be reckoned with! Look out naysayers!!

5.2 is so adaptable to my life. I find it fun to do fasts now 6 weeks in and 9lbs/4kgs gone! This forum is such an amazing support all the time but puts things in perspective if weight loss is variable. You won't regret it!

5:2 is the only diet I have come accross where I feel in control rather than being controlled by the diet

This is exactly why I decided to give it a go. All other calorie restriced diets require counting, weighing, portion control, cutting out certain foods, ALL THE TIME which ends up taking over your life. 5:2 is not like that which is why it can potentially be a lifetime habit.

Thanks folks - got plenty to be going on with now so must get them added to the home page

How about: 'Join the losers - fast!'
OK, maybe that didn't come out quite right...

"If everything seems under control you're just not going fast enough" - Mario Andretti

"I didn't lose my mind it was mine to give away" - Robbie Williams

Is that the kind of quotes you were after??

Thanks to 5:2 I've stopped dieting and starting losing weight.

This program is not a diet (I hate that word), it's a way of life! Where else can you lose weight and eat the things you love?!

5:2 a way of life that re-educates you to eat like a thin person & possibly has health benefits too, what more can a person ask for! Easiest method of weight loss I've come across in 40 yrs of dieting.

"The best thing about 5:2 is that it is completely sustainable. It's easy to be in it for the long run."

Pirateship 17lbs lost

5:2, the diet that doesn't feel like a diet. You really can have your cake and eat it!

Where can we see the chosen quotes, Moogie, please? (apart from on this thread)
