Fast 800 / 5:2 Christmas Countdown - 12 Weeks!🎄

Today it is 12 weeks until Christmas!🎄

I have tried all the main diets but have had trouble sticking to them properly beyond 2-3 weeks, I am training to be a coach and know how mindset/motivation and accountability can be the magic key! I love the Fast 800 / 5:2 so decided to set up a little buddy group as I want to finally crack this post-having kids weight loss thing, and not enter another year wishing I had lost the weight I put on since becoming a mum - the kids are in school now so ‘baby weight’ is definitely no longer a plausible excuse for me🫢

So if anyone is in the same ‘place’ and wants to do Dr Mosley’s Fast 800 or 5:2 in the lead up to Christmas I would love you to join me on this thread or / & the FB group here :

I also want to be at goal weight by Xmas and can easily do this if I actually stick to it!!!!!
I restarted today but have a holiday in 2 weeks for 6 days….but will deal with that when it comes. For now I’m on plan !

Hi! I am 3 days in…I really want to do it this time and before Christmas💪 I am going to try very fast 800 most weeks, or the reverse 5:2 when I have events that can’t be postponed.

Do you mean in the Facebook group or which is the other thread?

I’m in. Lost nearly 5 kg with the Fast Keto in Jan and have put 4 back on ! Need to shift that 4 again! Am aiming for 800cals and <50g of carbs Monday & Tuesday with IF and no bread/sugar for the rest of the week.

Hi Pico1 I have ended up just running the challenge from the FB group (link in OP above), please join there as I am regularly posting and few of us going for it, others just following for inspiration :)
