Well am glad I managed it as scales recording 11:7:75 so only 1/4lb above last Thursday so all being well I'll see a loss this week. Have been reading the 5:2 forum on FB & asked if people count their up days & they all seem to say no so then I wonder if I should try it & see what happens. I just wonder if it makes down days harder....

I think it depends how much cake and biscuits (sugary stuff ) you eat.,, I found when I was doing it ages (long long while ago) my fasts were harder if I'd eaten heaps of junk food during the day .. But if I stuck to my normal food ( not including crap stuff) I did not have the same issue ... But eating enough so that I didn't feel at all hungry and even a bit full 
I was glad of the fast next day

It's what I have just started doing, all good so far.

That's what I'm attempting to do at the moment and I think it is making my down days easier because I'm not feeling deprived on an up day.

It's a free app it says 1200-2000 cals on up days. But no treat or snack items proper food. Will try a week of no counting then attempt to get my beach body rofl
Although that said I did start to do my measurements earlier & I've lost 2" off my waist since end of February! Haven't done the others yet but it asked for waist measurement on fast beach app

Well final fast of the week & I'm feeling positive about it because my scales this morning are the same as last week so anything I shift with today is a loss & only 1/4lb to official lowest & if I could possibly move 1.25lb I'd be back to what I was when I went on holiday. Am going to try for a 500 cal day but may struggle with that cos of body combat class which I sense will be really tough!!!

Hi Lexie,
I'm reading the 'Fast Beach Diet' book at the moment & downloaded the app yesterday. It looks good & I'm going to start it from Monday. It's my son's birthday this weekend & Father's Day so my up days are going to be up up! Going to have another attempt at fasting tomorrow, didn't succeed on Monday, am finding it really difficult to get through one at the moment.
Happy fasting.
