CowgirlJane 14,260 Posted July 31, 2014 I did 5:2 to address a 5# regain and it worked so well, I decided to lose a bit more. I am not doing 5:2 now, but I still use some of the techniques- and they work! Anyway, an article, not about 5:2, but about health benefits of fasting: http://www.foxnews.com/health/2014/07/25/this-is-what-happens-to-your-body-when-skip-meals/?intcmp=obinsite 2 swimbikerun and waitingtoexhale reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
learning to love myself 8 Posted July 31, 2014 What exactly is the 5:2 diet? I've been stalled for about 2 months now and would like to find a way to get the scales moving again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fezik23 240 Posted August 2, 2014 You can google it. For five days per week you eat a reasonable diet, and for the other two you don't eat more than 500 calories. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
