What's this?

I've been doing 5/2 for about 3 months


Although I've skipped thanksgiving and when I travel, so I'm probably complying 80% of the time. I've lost 13 pounds. 4 more pounds and my BMI will be normal. So I was never super obese and 13 pounds is a good accomplishment, especially at 49 with 2 young kids.

On Mondays and Thursdays, I only eat 500-600 calories. The rest of the time I try to eat well but don't count calories or stress. I tried 16/8 and it was hard and made my family mad because I didn't want to eat when they did. Now I only piss them off 2 days a week.
