I'm about to start 5:2, with about 12/13 lbs to lose. I understand that hunger ebbs and flows, and that you can work through it but.... during that period when you feel hungriest and before it's ebbed, my stomach growls and gurgles. Loudly. As in, you can hear it across a crowded room loud
As the fast days have to be separated, at least one of them is going to have to be during the week, and I often have meetings 9.00 - 10.00 - just when the gurgling is at its worst. There are no calories in fibre tablets (the H&B Fibre Diet ones) so would it work if I took a few of those on fast days, just to keep my stomach occupied?
I can't see why it wouldn't be OK, but I thought I'd like to see if anyone else can see a problem?
