Bread is my enemy!
I can't see there is another forum for the 5:2 diet and I know this is similar but not quite the same.

on my 2nd week doing 5:2, lost 2 lbs last week but struggling with it this week! no idea why.

many thanks
 
Yea, I'm following the 5:2 plan - only started on Monday. I plan to do a half fast day on a Saturday and not eat until the evening. Doable for me as I spend Saturdays running around LOL

My fast days are Monday & Thursdays. Weighin Fridays
 
In doing the 5:2 too. Started last week and lost 4.8lbs. Loving the diet!
My fast days are Monday Thursday too and I also weigh in on Friday!! :)

Hi, I started JUDDD yesterday, but would ideally like to be doing 5:2 than 4:3 which is what I'm doing this week. I'll be keeping a close eye on the scales, and will be very keen to see how people on 5:2 are getting on, so please do keep updating as you go :)

I quite enjoyed my first fast, managed 26 hours calorie free, but I must say I am hungry this morning, even after my crumpets, and I'm looking forward to my hotdogs later :) I am strictly counting calories on both up days and down days, mostly because I am so worried about gaining. I imagine I will do some tweaking over the weeks, but plan to give it at least 4 weeks to see if its for me.
 
My 5:2 days are Monday and Wednesday and weigh in Thursday evening. Lost 2 lb the first week but put a pound on this week! :( think I pigged out too much after my down days. I could not seem to get rid of the hungry feeling after Wednesday.
 
Hello everyone :) I'm gonna be starting the fast diet tomorrow so thought I would say hi!
Been reading through the threads and there seems to be a lot of support which ill need on the fast days!

I'm fasting today in honour of Pancake Day tomorrow! It's the first year in years I've not been fretting about the calories/points/syns/carbs in pancakes so I'm jolly excited!
