I watched the PBS show on the 5/2 plan. I teach nutrition at a community college and was shocked to find the science behind the plan. I am in the process of reading Mosley's book. I start a new 6 week class Tuesday and thought I would try the plan for 6 weeks and see how it goes. Had black coffee this AM and will prepare a meal for my wife for dinner and will keep my calories to under 600. I think I could easily go without food but would like to stay on the plan long term if the 6 weeks goes well.

Hi Roger,
Welcome! Thank you for sharing with us - it's especially interesting being you teach nutrition. My husband has been on this diet with me since we started about 3 weeks ago. I do the 500 calories on our fast days (Monday and Thursday), but he doesn't eat anything on his fast days. I've lost 8lbs and he's lost 16lbs (plus he plays tennis every day). I look forward to following your thoughts, recipes, etc.
Stephanie

Hubby and I have been on this diet for about 2 months now. He lost 20 and I lost 12. He walks 4 miles a day so that helps. Please stop back often and share your progress.  |

Today is my first day. I exercise five days a week, walking 4 miles a day, yoga three times a week, Hiking up mountains and have not lost weight. In fact I have gained five pounds but then dropped three. I am 148 lbs now. I hope this works. I've tried everything else. I normally eat fish and vegetables anyway, so I don't know what is wrong.
