FieryRed 55 Posted January 24, 2014 I've read a couple topics where a sleever mentions "5:2" but can't find the reference/definition when I search the forums. Is this some way of eating? Can someone explain? Thanks y'all and Happy Fried-day! Wendy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
doneganregime1 43 Posted January 24, 2014 It's the fast diet - mostly done by ppl who are trying to achieve their wt loss goals after 1-2 years of havin surgery. There's a forum for it. Don't hve the link... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

work2do 15 Posted January 25, 2014 I went hunting for this and it appears to be a fast diet... 5 days normal eating & 2 days of fasting (500 calories). Here is a link that I found http://thefastdiet.co.uk/how-to-do-the-diet/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FieryRed 55 Posted January 27, 2014 Thanks, everyone! Sounds logical but I still can't imagine only eating 200-250 calories a day (on the fast days), even just 3 months out! lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
UK Cathy 977 Posted January 27, 2014 5:2 is aimed at people who basically are vets ie at least a year out from surgery and. They eat 500 calories on a fast day and eat their normal portions on non fast days. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
