It's 800 calories for up to 12 weeks (if you want) and then 5:2!Is it the 5:2 diet or the 800 calorie diet? I'm going to start the 5:2 tomorrow. I'm so fed up of trying to limit my meals to smaller boring portions so I hope it helps
If you don't mind me asking what type of things are you eating?It's 800 calories for up to 12 weeks (if you want) and then 5:2!
I haven't found it too hard so far! Never hungry.
Full keto would not be for me, but I’m very active so just keeping my carbs moderately low seems to work just as well for me.Well done you!
I've dabbled with keto for a while, but couldn't shift any weight more recently! I think I wasn't being strict enough. I think I needed this strict approach to get me back on track!
I feel like I should be able to maintain throwing in a few fasts per week when I get to goal.
If you don't mind me asking what type of things are you eating?
I know its controversial. but I also know the benefits to "fasting" on a short term basis. so I hope nobody comes for me for asking this lol
Thank you! And I'm sorry to hear about your grandma. I hope it works well for you I've heard great thingsOf course!
Black coffee for breakfast.
Lunch is usually am omelette and vegetables, tuna salad, or bacon, mushrooms and a chaffle.
Dinner is a salad with chicken, stir fry or cauliflower fried rice or meat and vegetables.
It's not for everyone, but I'm insulin resistant. I can't lose weight just calorie counting; it never works, even with regular exercise.
I've read the book and think there are lots of benefits to fasting. I suffer from an autoimmune disease and it helps reduce my inflammation. It can also reduce chances of getting Alzheimer's; this is a big thing for me as my grandma had it.
ETA - the book has lots of recipes, but I've not followed them so far. The recipes are meant to be pretty tasty.
Thank you so much!Thank you! And I'm sorry to hear about your grandma. I hope it works well for you I've heard great things)

Another cottage cheese fan, here. Longley Farm brand is thick and creamy. Halloumi or crumbled falafel are nice. Beans in a vinaigrette. Quorn sausages cut up. Cauldron marinated tofu can go straight on cold. (Can you tell I'm veggie..?Has anyone got any salad inspiration?
