Fast Diet: Week 11

I can't quite believe that I've been doing the Fast Diet for 11 weeks! 11 whole weeks! It's flying by. For those who don't know, the Fast Diet (eating 500 calories for women, 600 for men 2 days a week then normally for 5 days) was conceived by Dr Moseley who researched diets which aided health and longevity on his BBC Horizon documentary, Eat, Fast and Live Longer.

The 5:2/ Fast Diet

So like the millions of others, I too have succumbed to sampling this 'new' (I say new, but it's based on ancient principles of fasting) diet from Dr Michael Moseley. Like many, I watched his Horizon documentary: 'Eat, Fast and Live Longer' on BBC2 in total awe, rewatching it with my mother, both resolute we would give it a go.
