I fast on Mondays and Thursdays. On the fast day I drink tea and water during the day and eat green salad in the evening.

Lots of processed food. Calories are one thing, but healthy eating is another. How about a big salad: spinach, arugula, chopped peppers, maybe some shredded carrots or beets with a small amount of dressing? Much more nutrition, same calories.

Five hundred calories isn't a fast day. That's a low-cal day.

5:2 is a fast mimicking diet, so when we say "fast" day we are referring to our 500 calorie days.

@@valerietaylor2682 It's easy once you get into it. If I tried a 500 calorie day it would just make me hungry. Alternate day fasting seems easier to me. But there are days when I go into town, everyone else with me is eating, that the fast is broken. It's best to try to go into down only on days when I can eat. 🍔🍎

I couldn’t do that! Too many processed foods and what ever is that coffee? I have black coffee with one tsp sugar =16 calories.

Eating on a fast day? The purpose of fasting is not eating anything.

Biggus, some on the 5 2 don't have Any Calories on those two days. But the majority do eat a little.

yes the word fasting isn't properly used when referring to the 5 2 diet it is annoying to me as well. but technically you're eating so much less than you usually would it feels like you're fasting anyway. also what i tend to do, is try and eat in a 4-8 hour window on my 2 days of the week so i am technically fasting
