Hi all, you have been so inspiring that I started the 5:2 way of life yesterday.
I started by drinking lots of water and keeping busy. I ate a caprese salad at one thirty low fat mozzarella and one sliced tomato followed by roasted veg for dinner.
Tried not t snack but I made some home made completely plain pop corn for when I felt desperate. Think I had about a hand full!
Felt quite buzz y but also a bit weak.
I really want t reset my mind about how t eat and lose some weight! I'm 5:1 and about 10 stone ( don't own scales)
How long dies it take to reset your mindset?
Thanks all!!Smile

It took me about 2 weeks then I suddenly found FDs a lot easier. But the first couple of weeks I had 800 calories on my FDs. Now I average 500-600 calories.

if you feel the need to snack, drink a whole pint of water and wait 20 minutes
if you really need to, have a whole raw carrot
and have another big drink
