I've just started this one. I am stuck at home with a bad knee and can't be doing my usual activities. I decided to focus on something positive that I can do and hit on this diet. Its been around for ages since Dr Michael Moseley featured it.
If you don't know it its a 'fast' diet. 5 days a week you eat normally and 2 days you only have 500cals. Its the fasting that seems to have a proven benefit for cholesterol, bp, blood sugar etc. I'd thought I'd feel faint and headachy but I don't. Its fine. The best thing is that I can look forward to eating normally next day and don't become obsessed with food as I always seemed to on previous diets.
This seems doable to me and already my jeans have slackened off. I'm not doing weighing and measuring. They're just numbers. My clothes will keep me informed!!
